John Murrays original MPEG page is reachable at http://www.scri.fsu.edu/~murray/aikido/mpegs.html. These MPEGs are also available in Europe from Kjartan Clausen in Norway.
If you have any Aikido (any style) or related MPEG or QuickTime animations that you'd like to contribute, please contact me at webmangler@indigo2.scri.fsu.edu.
Need an MPEG player? Try the mpeg_play program from the folks at UC Berkeley. There's a Windows version, as well as versions for various UNIXes. There is also a large collection of pointers to graphics viewers located in the UK.
Most of these clips are short. If you have an MPEG player that plays a clip once and quits, you might want to configure it to run in loop mode.
If you are unfamiliar with Aikido terminology, Kjartan Clausen's Aikido Dictionary, part of the Aikido FAQ, may help.
