Debating the Stereoscopy of Wiggle Gifs

PARALLAX-SHIFT EXCLUSIVE Article/Poll

I’ve been on both sides of the fence on this argument- weather or not wiggle gifs can be considered a stereoscopic format. I was convinced for years by the argument of leading opinion, JR, that they are not, but recent experiments I’ve performed this past month while viewing certain wiggle gifs through an active headset- produced for ME, a stereoscopic result. I interview Dr Andrew Woods & other leading opinions on the subject in this this thought provoking article/reader poll. Your opinion COUNTS.


DOPE IN EVERY DIMENTION.

The 3D art book, by Tristan Eaton- Tristan Eaton is arguably the most famous artists on the planet & beyond, stereoscopic OR otherwise. His artworks have been immortalized in stainless steel and accompanied astronauts on the legendary Space X missions and his larger then life graffiti murals in 2D AND 3D anaglyph are commissioned by cities worldwide. This months ago installment will review his 2011 publication of modern illustrators and graffiti artists that were all converted into red/cyan anaglyph format. I’ll be publishing images from my own copy that I got HEAVILY signed by some of the most notorious and talented artists of our time (I promise, if you’re into graffiti OR anaglyph artwork, this is an impressive tome to own) at the book signing party in NYC loooong looong ago when it FIRST hit the shelves.


Why do A.I. even bother?

This should be an interesting one… the fact is, stereoscopic AI images are here to stay. I predict they may even become more numerous in the next coming months that they may even overtake human created stereoscopic images, in quantity at least. In this exclusive editorial/poll we will examine how AI stereoscopic imagery can be created, interview stereographers and AI creators to justify their opinions on the matter, and of course, want to hear from our readers as to YOUR opinion on this hot and controversial subject.
