THE STORY BEHIND THE PROJECT:
Stereoscopy Is Good For You: Life in 3-D contains the work of over 100 21st- century stereoscopic 3-D photographers from around the world during the COVID years.
In an uncertain world, this project two years in the making, shines light, beauty and hope in 3-D through the pages of a book created by Brian May and a new stereoscopic community centred around the Instagram
social medium.
Brian, creator of the 21st-century incarnation of the London Stereoscopic Company (LSC), has become an Internet evangelist for 3-D photography in recent years. Through the LSC, he invited the world to capture uplifting images from the uncertainty of their new reality. As Covid continued to
take its toll on the world, the fast growing stereo community kept on snapping away, lifting their spirits through this often neglected, but uniquely powerful photographic medium. Throughout the last two years thousands of powerful images came pouring in, celebrating nature, intriguing insects, people, pets, architecture, indoor recreations, even the sky above.... and a new title was born.
Brian and the LSC team were delighted by the quality and creativity of the photos they received, capturing the surrounding world in an extraordinary situation, and reflecting the resilience of the human spirit. And so began the epic mission of selecting and polishing the most expressive photos to compile Stereoscopy Is Good For You: Life in 3-D. The pages are filled with striking juxtapositions as we peer into the lives of photographers from the UK, Spain, Italy, France, Indonesia, Australia,NZ, Thailand, US, Mexico, Paraguay, Sweden, NL and many more.
The book comes with an OWL Stereoscopic Viewer, designed by Brian, that does the job of transforming the stereoscopic pairs of images into magical in- depth 3-D.
So impressed by the imagery, leading London photography gallery, Proud Galleries, are installing a five month exhibition showcasing a selection of the images, to create a wondrous immersive experience.
Brian May says -
“Here you will see an amazing breadth of invention. Some people took their smartphones into their garden if they were lucky enough to have one, capturing flowers, plants and garden creatures. Some snapped the newly appreciated beauty of their immediately surrounding landscapes on permitted walks. Some, stuck indoors, ingeniously managed to
create whole model scenes from toys and models. And some even turned their cameras to the sky. Some worked purely virtually, on their laptops, creating imaginary landscapes. Some opportunistically
used data available on the Internet to make stereos of the heavens. And, as the COVID restrictions eventually began to relax, the new
stereographers ventured back out and reclaimed the world ! You will see it all here.”
