Depth Charge: Digital Anaglyphs From the Digital Studio view detail comment email this

Each image in this exhibit "is a pairing of a Keystone Mast photograph, taken with a stereographic camera decades ago, and a new image. ... Both images are shown in 'anaglyphic' format -- meaning that if seen with inexpensive 'three-D' glasses ... they give the illusion of a three-dimensional image. In this form, images seem to possess depth." Includes introductory essay. From the California Museum of Photography, University of California, Riverside.
