Executive Summary This Fellowship study explored the use of analogue and digital technologies to create colour surfaces and sound experiences. The research focused on art and design activities that combine traditional analogue techniques (such as drawing or painting) with print and electronic media (from simple LED lighting to large-scale video projections on buildings). The Fellow’s rich and varied self-directed research was centred in Venice, Italy, with visits to France, Sweden, Scotland and the Netherlands to attend large public events such as the Biennale de Venezia and the Edinburgh Festival, and more intimate moments where one-on-one interviews were conducted with renown artists in their studios.

  • Flash in Stereo
    FLASH IN STEREO “Golf Legend Bobby Jones Taking a Swing", photo taken by Dr. Harold Edgerton , the inventor of electronic flash in 1938, using stroboscopic flash photography. A Presentation by George Themelis NSA / July 2010 Outline • Why Flash? • Flash Advantages in Stereo • Short History of Flash Photography • Flash Bulbs vs. Electronic Flash • Flash Synchronization • Flash Exposure • Issues when using flash • Special Flash Techniques • Flash in Slide Bar (Single camera) Stereo • Flash with Vintage Stereo Cameras • Flash with compact digital stereo cameras • Flash with twin cameras Why Flash? When the existing light is dim, there is a need for artificial light in order to get good expo- sures . Example: In a well-lit interior space a typical exposure using 100 ISO is f8 at 1 second. Compare this to a “sunny day” f16 1/100, 2+7 = 9 f-stops less light. Hand hold- ing the camera or taking pictures of people at these long exposures is impossible. Hence flash is a necessity for taking pictures indoors. Without extra light, the photographer has three options: 1) Open up the aperture (f-stop), 2) Increase the time of the exposure . 3) Increase sensitivity (ISO) . These methods have disadvantages & limitations: • Opening up the lens aperture reduces the depth of field (can be a problem in stereo) in- creases lens aberrations, plus there is a limit (lens maximum aperture) • Theoretically, there is no limit in increasing exposure time, but in practice 1) film recip- rocity, 2) digital noise, 3) blurry pictures without solid support, 4) subject movement. • Increased sensitivity leads to film grain or digital noise.
