My special interest is in the phenomenon of time, and the creation of ways to move in the mind to another space and time.
When you have seen 3D EXPO 1862, I think you’ll agree that you experience a remarkable feeling of being there at the 1862 International Exhibition. You are drawn into the stereoscopic photographs as your eyes search the 3D-scene for details. One stereograph leads you on to the next, as you continue your 3D virtual reality walk through time.
3D EXPO 1862 brings the mid-Victorian era alive; it’s actually superb for teaching history in schools and universities. The Victorians wrote such beautiful English, as you can see in the book.
My search for original stereographs of the 1862 International Exhibition took nearly four years and involved travel and contacts worldwide. A glimpse of this search for stereographs of the Exhibition actually appears in 3D in the US Stereo World Magazine, Volume 30 No. 4 Page 31. I am a member of the British Stereoscopic Society (founded 1893) and the National Stereoscopic Association of America.
