As I said, if you’re in Charlottesville between now and March 30th go check this out. I love it.

New York Public Library’s Stereogranimator Lets You Make GIFs Out Of 19th Century Stereographs:
“With the Stereogranimator, the NYPL is letting users transform 19th century stereographs into GIFs, which lets people experience these historical images the way someone in the 1800s might have. Drawing on a collection of over 40,000 stereographs, the Stereogranimator is a project of the NYPL Labs, an experimental unit at the library using digital means to develop new tools for research.
“If you look through enough of them, you start to notice that many from before 1900 come in seemingly-identical pairs. What you may not realize is that these pairs were meant to be viewed together, each side lending the other a sense of depth that a photograph alone cannot possess,” Joshua Heineman, who began a version of the Stereogranimator as a personal project on his blog, wrote on the Huffington Post. “Using stereoscopes, the entertainment-seeking public of the 19th century immersed themselves in these 3D photographs (called stereographs) in a manner akin to how we now view movies, video games or cellphone screens.”
3D Porch featured another one of my wiggle pics on their front page today! Aw. (via 3D Porch)
Finally made it to the Paramount to check out the Municipal Band. The biggest surprise was how many other people walked over to the Garage afterwards besides me and Rachel. Did not expect so much audience overlap!
