Hi Paula,
The book 'Illusions in motion' is wonderful to read, I'm currently enjoying it very much.
http://www.visual-media.eu/publications_books_pre-film.html
And obviously, the next great book I'm looking forwards to read is yours, Brian's & Denis' stereo diablerie book!
http://www.visual-media.eu/publications_books_photo.html
I can only advise both publications to all (currently 634) members of Early Visual Media.
I would like to emphasis for all members that 'Diableries, Stereoscopic Adventures in Hell' can already be pre-ordered!

Please do not confuse with the recently published 'Diableries: A Trip to the Underworld' by Candice Black which is bad plagiarism of a book published in 1978.
Read the review on http://www.visual-media.eu/publications_books_photo.html to discover more ...
All best,
Thomas

Yes, that must be the one. I only vaguely remember it because I, too, had to deal with a huge painting and the
conservators mentioned it. We will have to find out where it is (I suspect in the Museum Support Center in Suitland, Md.) and find out how accessible it is. It could be that it is too fragile to show, but they would certainly have images if that isn't possible. Let me see if I can find out. --paula

Indeed, the list of surviving moving panorama's in Erkki's book is describing 'Army of the Cumberland', preserved in the Smithsonian.
But of course, this a question for Erkii

Intersting. I wonder if he came to the Smithsonian. I'm rather sure one of our departments has a nearly complete panorama, poss. recently conserved. Will have to check. xopf

Dear List members,
Read a Q&A about 'Illusions in Motion: Media Archaeology of the Moving Panorama and Related Spectacles' with the author Erkki Huhtamo.
Op zaterdag 9 maart 2013 18:59:03 UTC+1 schreef Thomas Weynants het volgende:Dear List members,
Professor Erkki Huhtamo's new book 'Illusions in Motion: Media Archaeology of the Moving Panorama and Related Spectacles' has been just published by the MIT Press.
It is a huge exploration of media culture between the eighteenth and the twentieth centuries.
See: http://www.visual-media.eu/publications_books_pre-film.html
The centerpoint is the moving panorama, once a hugely popular media spectacle, which has been nearly completely forgotten. The book brings it back to living memory, also discussing its relationships with other spectacles, such as dioramas and magic lantern shows.
It also investigates how panoramas inspired writers, scientists, philosophers and cultural commentators. The work took more than a decade to research and write, and is meant as a demonstration of what a media-archaeological approach can achieve.
The book is richly illustrated with material from Huhtamo's media-archaeological collections, and was magnificently designed by UCLA Design Media Arts Chair Willem Henri Lucas and Jon Gacnik.
A review by Visual Media is coming soon.
Best wishes,
Thomas
