Using photos of oft-snapped subjects (like Notre Dame) scraped from
around the Web, Photosynth (based on Seadragon technology) creates
breathtaking multidimensional spaces with zoom and navigation features
that outstrip all expectation. Its architect, Blaise Aguera y Arcas,
shows it off in this standing-ovation demo. Curious about that speck
in corner? Dive into a freefall and watch as the speck becomes a
gargoyle. With an unpleasant grimace. And an ant-sized chip in its
lower left molar.
And the blog. Well worth poking around.
