Facebook has thrown up an old pic from 1999 (obvs pre-FB).
This is the team that counted and mapped every bit of woodland in Scotland.
Aerial photos, stereoscopes, Windows 95.
Of course you can do it all with Google maps now, so our work was obsolete pretty quickly. Still, it was fun.

Can someone explain to her that stereoscopes are still around and in use.
Also there is software (not AI) that compiles stereo pairs into 3d images.
I used both in my cartography work over the last 40 years.

Im shocked that a filmmaker of her caliber did not know about stereoscopes.

I have to say that this one is tricky. I haven't gotten the knack yet for lining up the optics yet because the bottom of the microscope swivels independently for each side. I'm used to moving the print air photos under the stereoscopes on the little stands. Also, this one is so dusty.

Even the large folding ones are a big step up from the pocket stereoscopes, in terms of using them for an extended period, and they let you keep the two photos completely separate from each other. If you find some of those that work it's worth keeping them. I've never used one this size, though.

There's just a lot going on there. If they had time to get to a third thing it would be the stereoscopes.

Labor Day
The Tobacco Workers' wagon passes in front of the camera during the 1887 Labor Day parade at Union Square: We're looking west across the north end of the square - the only recognizable landmark is the 1881 Century Building on the far right. You have to look at the left-hand picture to see it: stereoscopes create their three-dimensional image by combining two pictures from slightly different angles, and Century is almost entirely out of frame in the right-hand picture.

Stereoscopes - check! As soon as I found them, I put those babies out with some airphotos from the northern Sierra.

History of the collection - its various incarnations. Unique maps and/or manuscript maps. The local area (Campus/City) at various dates, scales and thematic map types. Looking through stereoscopes at air photos, tracing on a light table... anything haptic

Had somebody in today looking at Percy Salmon's pictures of Melbourn. There's a nice video about him at www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVn9... We also hold a selection of his stereoscopes when he travelled abroad in 1898 to Egypt, Palestine, Turkey and Greece while working for Lévy & ses Fils of Paris

I worked as a caterer in Yosemite. One of the weddings had these on each table. We were almost late for their reception because we were all looking through the stereoscopes instead of setting up
