VIA | PERSPECTIVES
I am constantly charmed and thrilled by BLDGBLOG – this post is no exception. I love the idea that a blog concerned with "architectural conjecture," would be interested in the developments of photography. This post relates a bit to the DepthEditorDebug project I've been collaborating on recently. In it, he goes from bullet time to Velasquez and back again. But what captivates me is that if he gets to write about photography, then I get to write about architecture... damnit!
A digital image-processing system under development since 2007 will allow photographers "to artificially create photos taken from a perspective where there was no photographer." It uses "a computer-vision technique called view synthesis to combine two or more photographs to create another very realistic-looking one that looks like it was taken from an arbitrary viewpoint," as New Scientist explains.
