Hello,

I found this group on the web.  As a child growing up in Miami Beach
in the 50's, 60's, my father was an avid photographer and only shot
with Revere Stereo cameras.  I have literally thousands of slides,
several cameras, and only one working Brumberger viewer.  If it goes,
all is lost.

Does anyone know where I can buy another one?  Seeing these slides is
like reliving my childhood.  There is nothing like them......

Thanks.

Rick Andrade asked me to post this to several groups
of 3D photoghaphers. I thought some of you might be
interested. If you have any questions direct them to
him:

I can try to help if necessary. I think I might help
in the judging so I will not enter any myself.

Good luck!
Jim

I want to thank everyone who helped make the SCSC digital presentation a
success. It was great putting the computer system through it's paces,
and hopefully we'll be able to do this again soon.

One quick question - in unloading the equipment, I noticed that
one box is missing. This is a large box of cables, including a long
orange AC cord and a power strip. If anyone spotted this please let me
know.

Thanks again for giving me the opportunity to put this evening together,

Eric Kurland

California (SCSC) www.la3dclub.com/.

Several digital 3-D stereo shows will be shown
at this meeting. Greg Dinkins from the New York
Stereoscopic Society will present “Harold Lloyd
Nudes from the Museum of Sex.” After carefully
inspecting thousands of Harold Lloyd’s pinup
stereo slides, Greg selected 100 of the best
images and duplicated them for the Museum of Sex
(www.mosex.com). The originals were returned and
this short slides show features some of the best
images from the museum’s collection. We held a run
through of all the shows last night and it's going
to be a great night of 3-D!

We provide the stereo glasses - And it is all FREE!
The SCSC Meeting will begin at 7:30 at the Wilshire

That's a great idea.  Thanks for sharing!

Well - I see that I'm the first to post any images in the photo galleries...

That either means I'm really on the ball or really ignorant for jumping ahead
and not
following some kind of protocol!  =:o

I just think it's a great idea to share some of our work with each other to see

doing... even though most of mine posted is a little old now, I gotta get more
recent images
up there.

What?  Another 3-D user group! Wha-hoo!

3-D photo show reveals hidden side of immigrants' Ellis Island



JOE FITZGIBBON

Millions of immigrants poured into Ellis Island in the first half of
the 20th century. They wore weary faces and lugged heavy suitcases
but were hopeful with the promise of a new life. Some of Ellis Island
has been closed to the public for 50 years, but now it's possible to
step back in history at an unusual art exhibit in an exciting 3D show
that will be shown along with a show on California sites on Friday,
January 13, 2006.  It will be at the Saddleback Room at City Hall
(200 Civic Center) the corner of La Paz and Margarite in Mission
Viejo California at 6:30PM.  The award-winning, 30-minute program,
developed by San Diego photographer Gary Schacker and New Jersey
artifact collector Sheldon Aronowitz, combines vintage images of
Ellis Island with contemporary photographs of many of the historic
buildings.

Please contact Steve Berezin for seat reservations (949) 215 1554
(it is free).
Viewers slip on a pair of inexpensive 3-D glasses, plop down in the
gallery's intimate theater and experience scenes from that era.

"It all had that look of being abandoned quickly," Schacker says of
Ellis Island's buildings. He and Aronowitz spent five days outfitted
with face masks and hard hats photographing the infirmaries,
dormitories, administrative offices and examining rooms on the
island. "We didn't touch anything but simply tried to convey the mood
and the deterioration we saw," Schacker says.

The compelling images include long corridors leading into paint-
chipped rooms with broken furniture, including one with a collapsed
piano and another with stacks of bedding. In one building, light
streams through splintered windows, showing off plants that have
taken root in piles of debris. In another, unclaimed steamer trunks
are stacked to the ceiling, while rusted file cabinets spill out onto
floors. The 3-D photographs of weather-scarred operating rooms and
moss-filled sinks are a reminder of the diseases many new arrivals
brought and the births and deaths that happened there.

"The show won the equivalent of our Academy Awards and, outside of
Ellis Island, Portland is the only place you can see it," says Shab
Levy, an avid photographer and member of the National Stereoscopic
Association, which promotes 3-D photography. The association gave the
program its 2004 top prize. "You can't help being moved emotionally
by its harsh beauty."

The nonprofit gallery and museum -- the only one of its kind in the
United States, specialists say -- is run by volunteers and features
artifacts and 3-D images from the past 160 years. Displays include
historic postcards, 3-D cameras and viewing devices, the once-popular
View-Masters, interactive displays and computer-generated art,
contemporary photographs, gifts and a reference library.

In 1990, after renovation costs of more than $60 million, the Ellis
Island Immigration Museum opened to the public. Each year, nearly 2
million visitors stroll through the main processing center. However,
no one is allowed in any of the neighboring 29 buildings. Schacker
says he hopes that in a small way his show will galvanize support for
restoring those structures.

"It's hard not to think of the anxiety the immigrants confined to
these buildings must have felt," he says. "I jumped at the chance to
look inside, and I'm sure that lots of other people would do the
same."

Did anyone have any issues joining the group?  Since our old no longer has an owner,
meaning only lawrence can be a moderator, I figured perhaps it's best to have a new group. 
And the la3dclub is now our permenate cyber name, we should brand everything with it.

I figure we can roll out the new name of our group to the masses in January.

See ya all at the Taco Fest!

We should migrate over to this new group.  This will unify our web presence and
lock in our

Hi All. We guess you had to start the group over for technical reasons.
We've finally signed up. Looking forward to reading whatever comes in.
