Screen: Glasses Not Included

摘要

By now, you've probably seen Bjoerk's stunning 3-D video for "Wanderlust"-in 2-D. If you want to view the Icelandic singer's psilocybin-friendly vision as she intended, you'll want to watch it in stereoscopic 3-D, the same depth-enhancing technique-based on linear polarization-that's used in 3-D MAX theaters. And who better to show you how than the directorial duo behind the video, Sean Hellfritsch and Isaiah Saxon of Encyclopedia Pictura. They DIY'd their own 3-D viewing system, dubbed the Vizard. "We shot 'Wanderlust' with the small screen in mind," says Hellfritsch, who designed the contraption. The Vizard is currently on sale at New York's Deitch Projects gallery for $15,000 (Bjork video included), but you can cobble together your own for $300. With so many 3-D films coming at you in 2009 (including James Cameron's Avatar), the humble Vizard may make your hi-def plasma screen jealous.
