Hoberman, Perry

best soundbite:


Katzenberg says that after 2009 “consumers will own their own 3-D glasses in the same way they have sunglasses for going outside.”


Hey, why not smart lenses that auto-polarize in the presence of dual DLP projection?


Of course by then the REALLY hardcore crowd wears polarizing contacts

I'm optimistic to the future of stereoscopic imaging. Actually, artists are so behind the ready technology - ready for about 100 years - and there is so much they can do to make use of this powerful medium.

I saw a small viewing of a pre-final cut of the U2 movie and I have to say it was quite impressive. Sometimes I come out of these things with a slight headache or other kind of eyeball-induced discomfort. Something worked with the 3ality Digital technology and the way they edited the film.
