These are ideas and designs from 2017 and onward that I have experimented with. Some of these have or have yet developed into related projects.
6:34am - Mutoscope Cabinet (2018)
A cabinet design with a built-in mutoscope viewer to observe the included bird images. The images were sourced from an old encyclopedia and specifically chosen to create the animated cycle of a bird's flight when placed in the mutoscope.

Exhibited at Keystone LA, Sept 2023
Camera Obscura Stereoscope Viewer (2022)
An experiment in stereoscopy. The design is meant to function as both a capture and viewing stereoscope device. The projected screen in the center can be replaced with film or cyanotype paper to capture the left and right images directly and be viewed again with the viewer built in.
