Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Propaganda. Saturate the media environment with so much information, often contradictory, false, or inflammatory, that it becomes impossible for the public or journalists to discern the truth or maintain focus on any single issue. 1164
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 20/11/2025Wow. Those BASIC mags were totally what got me in to design. I love that this exists, my kid will love this thank you! 020
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 23/09/2025230925. Inheritable. Just a reminder that Tylenol doesn’t cause autism. Genetics cause autism. It is not a disease or an illness, it cannot be ‘fixed’ and there is no epidemic. It is a neurological difference. Autism can run in families. The shame doesn’t have to. 0101
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 06/06/2025No, all my work is illustrated in Adobe Illustrator and animated in After Effects. 🙏 030
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 06/06/2025Illustrator and After Effects. Since you asked so nicely 😩 020

Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 27/03/2025These animations don’t just move—they connect. By leveraging synchronisation and rhythmic disruptions, they create a visceral experience that locks in attention and feels deeply satisfying on a neurological level. Next time you’re mesmerised by motion design, remember: your brain is moving with it. 110
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 27/03/2025With structured rhythm—loops, seamless transitions, and perfectly timed effects—these animations build a physiological and emotional connection with the viewer. 110
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Rhythmic, coordinated movements don’t just look good—they feel good. They: 🧠 Reduce cognitive load, making complex visuals effortless to process. ❤️ Amplify emotional impact, drawing the viewer deeper in. 🧘🏻♂️Trigger flow states, similar to those experienced in meditation or intense focus. 120
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Neural Oscillations & the Rhythm of Motion Watching synchronised movement—whether in animation, dance, or footsteps—triggers neural oscillation alignment. Brainwaves (alpha, beta, gamma) sync with the motion, creating a meditative effect. This is why these designs feel both calming and immersive. 110
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 27/03/2025What makes these animations so mesmerizing? Why do they pull viewers in, creating an almost hypnotic effect? The secret lies in neural synchronisation—a phenomenon where the brain aligns with rhythmic motion, enhancing focus, emotion, and engagement. 110

Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Agreed. Well done for developing it, sounds interesting. 000
Al Boardman @alboardman.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Is it easier to use than Newton!? If so sounds great. 100
