Stereoscopic photography

[Errant]

I'm putting together a short piece for my coursework/student radio on
3D image viewing, and am looking to interview someone with knowledge
of its historic and amateur use (tending towards the Victoriana end of
things, but I'll take what I can get).

Would anyone be willing to nerd out in front of an audio recorder some
time in the next couple of weeks, or know someone I could approach?

Thanks!

Hmm, I know a little - don't know if it would be enough for you, can you give us any clues about the depth level expected?

My dad knows more, I think. He was a photography teacher for about 20 years. I'll ask him.

Regards

I am a member of the Stereoscopic Society (http://
www.stereoscopicsociety.org.uk), you may have seen my postings on
their meetings and maybe even seen stereos I have taken at Hackspace.
There are a number of their members who have knowlege about and
collections of Victorian stereos, one in particular, Bob Aldridge,
would be able to give a very good interview, but I know he has limited
time. I will be contacting him over another matter and ask if he would
be willing to help you.
