aagghhh

aaaaaggghhhhh....

....really struggling with this interaction project. Keep going around in circles not making any progress. Was interested to make some optical piece inspired by the stereoscopic images at the Kentbridge exhibiton. I sent away for some stereoscopic glasses from the US as i couldn't find a UK supplier. They arrived, but are pretty crap, quite blurrey and difficult to see anything. Hoped to rig up a system with 2 video cameras, and project the images onto screens side by side, and use the stereoglasses to see the results in 3d. Tried to test with a couple of webcams, and again had little success as the PC would recognise a second webcam. (plus the webcam images are pretty ropey , despite the fact it wasn't a cheap one).
So it's back to square one. At a loss as to what to do for this project, and more research just makes it more confusing.
