Meeting of Jul 29th, 2004
A dozen people came for
what was one of our best, most active, fun packed meetings yet.
Rick Gibson began with a really great talk of his work in converting old
Vancouver stereo views to 10 frame lenticular. Then 3DP news & tidbits which
included lenticular finds by Peter Lowery and NSA2004 notes from Rolf and Bernd.
We then viewed slide projection of two SSA Alpha folios which allowed our group
to spout views of the best slides. Aisha Dennis presented a great selection of
her slides. We then moved onto digital projection of
James Long stereo conversion of famous artwork (this amazed everyone) and
ended with some 2D pictures from NSA2004 (including some of the Phantograms). Of
note, on display was a sampling of Rick's lenticulars, Bernd's first Phantograms
tests, misc from NSA2004 and selections of stereo cards. As requested, here are
some links of interest:

Meeting of Oct 30th, 2003
A small group of 7 came to see Rolf's showing of slides from the
ISU-2003 conference in France and from the NSA-2003 conference in South
Carolina. In addition there where new and old Viewmaster reels shown. Rolf put
on a fine show which gave a great view into a bit of his 3D travels. Peter
Lowery showed some special wit as he commented, "A stereo picture is worth 2,000
words". Of additional interest, Igor Kurchavov,
Arashan Promotion had a number of his
wonderful, fine lenticular prints (lenticulars that he makes himself).

Holiday Dinner Meeting of Jan 30th, 2003
Only a small showing of eight came to dinner at the Vancouver Alpen
Club. (we received numerous regrets - guess it just wasn't the right time).
Bernd show first results of digitally printed stereo cards of a vacation's beach
and palm trees. And a big plus for all that came was a free gift from Pentax of
their 3D Viewer.
Over dinner, it came up that we couldn't remember any stereo 3D
jokes. So Peter Lowery, with instant wit, came up with this pearl: "At our last 3D club meeting, Rolf (our country ISU rep) commented that he speed reads
the ISU journal by only looking at the left view pictures." :-)
