How A Wheatstone Viewer
Works
The Wheatsone viewer
is the simplest stereoscopic system. You could make one in an hour or so with
a couple of small mirrors , a cardboard box and some sticky tape. This piece
above is slightly different
as instead of a stereo pair I used the poem By
Ewan McVicar fed into the left eye and a small painting
fed into the right
eye. So the work mixes the two images inside the viewers brain. This cannot be
shown
here but the illustration below gives some idea of what is viewed.
This piece was an Interaction work
and the speakers played music composed by
John Maxwell Geddes for this painting.
