NY Public Library Turns Its 19th Century Photo Collection Into 3D Animated GIFS

“Stereograms, invented all the way back in 1861, are made up of a pair of still photographs of the same subject that have been shot from slightly different angles, mimicking the vantage points of our left and right eyes, individually. When viewed through a stereoscope, the final image pops out in 3D. The New York Public Library has taken its collection of 19^th century stereograms and given viewers the opportunity to turn them into a more contemporary — and easily accessible — form: the animated GIF. 

 The NYPL’s new Stereogranimator (stereogram plus animate) Web site provides access to a wide selection of the library’s archive of stereogram images, including shots of city architecture, outdoor landscapes, and even a few photos taken inside museums. Users select composition and speed, creating an animated GIF that flickers between the two stereogram frames, giving the impression of 3D.” - Kyle Chayka for ArtInfo

This is my friend Hollie Brown’s work. These are two of my favorite images from her new series. Her new series is getting a solo show in Austin, TX at Greyduck gallery. Keep an eye out for her. She’s finally getting all of her work online.

I’ve been on a Haruki Murakami kick since the summer. The person who put together this website is really great.

My next photo pickup will probably be this fantastic looking publication from Mossless. Man o man does this look great.

Tempting. Very tempting. Saw a few of his pieces in person at the Arthouse Anxiety of Photography show a couple of months ago in Austin, TX. It was the best stuff aside from the Roe Ethridge and David Benjamin Sherry photographs hanging on the wall. 

O man.
