The butterflies are back! The butterflies are back!
Here Marian's figure is chiding Armin on his stroke technique: it's done this way, with your knee out like this, your arm extended like that. And clip-art? You want to see clip-art? Here's one WITH CLEAVAGE.
She's referencing both his initial return and his 1970's period type choice and has here increased the negative space to interesting effect, making us inspect the entire layer, and my God, I am just too lazy. There is all this blinking to do.
This is still very much a Battle of the Sexes for Marian, just like it was for Billie Jean, and here she seems to be standing firm saying, no, I will not walk your way.

Tomorrow we continue our series of live, experimental Layer Tennis Exhibitions with a motion graphics match between Matt Smithson and Daniel Oeffinger. As usual, the action starts at 2pm Chicago time. Check the time in your area. What is unusual is that the match won't finish until next Thursday. We'll be posting two layers per weekday. We've always wondered what would happen if we gave a couple artists a lot more time to do each volley and this week we'll find out. Commentary is by Jason Koxvold, who knows a little something about LYT and mo-graf. Jason's Match Preview has been posted and so has the coin-flip.
