Magic lantern slides

we picked up some magic lantern slides a few years ago. I would love to make some art work that had a similar feel.
A series of medieval illustrations produced by monks forms the bases of these ones. Largely forgotten now, their story was still popular in the time of the magic lantern. Having been kidnapped by vikings on the way to America, the monks were only able to blog their experiences using a primitive ftp protocol fashioned from pinecones.
