Janice Maddy threatened me today at lunch, and I’m a little freaked out about it. I’m hoping she will watch this video and help me understand exactly what she meant, but I’m sure I will hear about it later, too, oh yeah, baby. She said she was going to take pictures of me and do “something” with them. It hasn’t been a great day, as you can see in this video. I went to the Dollar store to get five rubber duckies and they only had one rubber ducky, so I’m unable to do my stereoscopic 3D demo showing the Designated Near Point row of rubber duckies gag. I didn’t really have anything interesting in the 2 to 15 feet range to make an interesting 3D video, so I just threw an old quilt over a home-made backdrop frame that I made, and set it off to one side. Not very exciting, but it’s a perfectly cubic illusion with a .8 inch stereo base. And who says we need 2.5 inches between our lenses to make it look “normal”? Normal shnormal, hokus pokus… yet another one of a bazillion stereoscopic myths.
