Takes a video and converts it into a slit-scan style image. If every frame in your video is stacked on top of the last, the image becomes a 3D block of what was seen. It's like building a loaf of bread by stacking the individual slices together. Now we take this tool, and slice the loaf along the direction we were stacking things: we get a slice of what was seen in the same location, but at different moments. This tool is basically a breadknife for time.
