__Chapter One (green)__
 * The forms of animals in movement are discovered on the walls of caves throughout the world."
 * " Not only was the portrayal of motion the purpose for this rock painting of an eight-legged boar, but it may also have been a very early attempt by the artist to say that he doesn't understand why he is seeing more legs than the animal has."
 * "Discovered at Altamira Spain, the boar is clearly running in a blur with the artist 'seeing' more legs than there are. There is even a suggestion of two blurred heads as he thunders across the plain."
 * "It is quite possible therefore that the camera obscura effect was seen in primitive times and documented as well. Not with ink on paper however, but with primitive paint on cave walls."
 * " Although frontality tended to be emphasized through symmetry, leaving little opportunity for movement in the Old Kingdom, the Middle and New Kingdoms saw an emergence of boldness, drive, and inspiration in Egyptian art."
 * "Egyptians and Babylonians acknowledge light and shadow, and may have used them in primitive forms of entertainment. The Chaldeans may have used magnifying glasses in conjunction with studies in light. Lenses will be unearthed in the 19th century dating back to this period. The Asian shadow play and Japanese mirrors make an appearance. The Chinese will use firelight to illuminate their shadows."
