Wazabee (TM) 3DeeCamera avaible at iTunes


Since Dec. 3rd Spatial View's second application for the iPhone - 3DeeCamera - is available at iTunes. 3DeeCamera allows you to shot two photos (a stereo-pair) within the application and align and rectify these pairs to proper stereo 3D images. For know the user can choose between 3 anaglyph modes (red/cyan, red/blue, and red/green). As well you can save all stereo-images as anaglyphs or as Side-By-Side images for parallel and/or cross-viewing. The application runs only on the iPhone; if you're looking for something similar to use on the iPod Touch the 3DeeVUsion is suggested.

Wayne Martin Belger

      Just few days ago I found in a Flickr group a link to the website: BOY OF BLUE INDUSTRIES: The Art of Wayne Martin Belger. Seriously it is one of most fascinating artists I've seen the last time. In general he is into pin-hole photography. That's cool I love this stuff. But he is building his own cameras - even better. Now it comes: most of his cameras using human skulls as body.
AND Ladies and Gentlemen - One Thing More:
He build a Stereo Pin-hole Camera called 'Yama' (Tibetan Skull Camera). The camera works (fine; I have to say - regarding to the displayed images on the website). He is not that freak as he appears on the first glance - he is a genius engineer. The Yama the Tibetan Skull Camera uses a pneumatic system to move the film. I don't want to quote his website, please go to link and have look onto it.

For me the camera is definitly a Must Have Object. 

The artist Wayne Martin Belger needs more exposure; behind the skulls is a solid founded philosophy about to do arts and photography. His work was published by magazines like, Bizarre, Juxtapoz, B&W and others. I was going behind everything I could found on the web. It is simply fascinating. If you are more interested he runs a well done website, with press-release and news and a gallery list.

Stereo 3D images on Flickr


I've put recently a bunch of new stereo images on my Flickr account. More will follow. I used my cell phone, a Sony Erricsson K770i to shot these. It was just a trial  - and I'm impressed by the quality. Guys if you are interested - have a look and give your comments. http://www.flickr.com/photos/dust-d-bugger/

Second book I've bought yesterday: "Comin' At Ya!" - The homoerotic 3D photographs of Denny Denfield by David L. Chapman and Thomas Waugh. I have seen some of the Stereo-Realist slides before on eBay. Now is a full book incl. stereo-glasses availabe - published by Arsenal Pulp Press (http://www.arsenalpulp.com/) in Vancouver, Canada.

PhotoEd Magazine - 3D special

Yesterday I've bought the winter 2007 issue (#21) of the Toronto based magazine PhotoEd. A full magazine of 3D topics. And the best of it: It explains very simple what 3D / Stereo-Photography is and gives a easy to understand introduction and overview in the most 3D topics. The mag comes with anaglyph cardboard glasses. You can buy it in canadian bookstores or at their website: http://www.photoed.ca/

Toronto in Snow

View from my balcony - with "my " first snow this year: 2007-11-22. The 17th floor view. I love tall buildings - could be not high enough.

Currently I'm working on the auto-stereoscopic 3D presention of Hagen Bäckers artwork for the new building of the Music Academy in Dresden. I struggle with lights in these huge 3D model. I found some very good camera views - the 3D is excellent - only the lightning sucks totally. Once if I have the lights in final position I will do the camera moves.

Very, very cool anaglyph 3D vinyl-cover "Girls Night Out" by a band called "Toronto" - neat. One of funniest pieces in my 3D collection. I've bought this last year very cheap. Guess this is to funny for the real 3D addict. I've got this last year from DrT 3D (look for 3d-drt-3d or try this link: http://stores.ebay.de/DrT-3d_W0QQssPageNameZstrkQ3amefsQ3amesstQQtZkm) - he has one of the best 3D shops at eBay you can find in the internet.

Back in Toronto

Yesterday night I arrived Toronto at 3:40 pm - the flight was on time. No problems at the immigration - the often I go to Canada it goes faster. Yesterday I was thrue after 30 seconds. After picking up my luggage I was going straight downtown to the Spatial View office. Like every time I took the bus - the airport express. Approximately at 6 pm I was in my appartment in the Bloor/Yonge area. I've had to go to the grocery store - there is a Rabba on my street - open 24 hrs a day. But I've decided to go at first Book City at Yonge Street. A very small bookstore with special pricings on books - mostly design, art, comics stuff and a lot of international magazines and newspapers. I've bought the actual print with a cover made by Nicholas Blechman (he is the husband of one of my wifes bests friends in NY). Addidtional I've had the Coupe #017, the actual Believer and a book about Virginia Lee Burton in my basket. In 2006 I've got her children's book "Katy the Snowblow" in Boston Cambridge in used book store. The Coupe Mag (http://www.coupe-mag.com/) is fascinating with their annual design competition.

In the coupe mag is a anaglyph 3D add campaign for Mini from the Toronto based Taxi 2 design office (http://www.taxi.ca/)

Yesterday I did some shots with my new Sony Cybershot handy - it is quiet good and very small and a smaller camera as well. It is a good add a new one to my stack: a Nimslo four-eyed stereo camera to use with slide film from the 80's. I will add the photos later the day.

The next small project I want do: to make multiple shots with my Cybershot and create with the Spatial View software stereo 3D photos for their 5 view multi-user displays.
