Animated Stereoviews of Old Japan (100yr old moving pics)

In the late 19th and early 20th century, enigmatic photographer T. Enami (1859-1929) captured a number of 3D stereoviews depicting life in Meiji-period Japan.

A stereoview consists of a pair of nearly identical images that appear three-dimensional when viewed through a stereoscope, because each eye sees a slightly different image. This illusion of depth can also be recreated with animated GIFs like the ones here, which were created from Flickr images posted by Okinawa Soba. Follow the links under each animation for the original stereoviews and background information.

Re: Animated Stereoviews of Old Japan (100yr old moving pics)

Japan is very interesting indeed! Went last year and visited many places, Okinawa, Kyoto, Hiroshima (met & recorded the last documented remaining survivor of the bombing), Toyko (of course) and many of the other areas....

Wish we had those damn fast bullet trains!!!

Re: Animated Stereoviews of Old Japan (100yr old moving pics)

i so want to go to Japan, great post
If you get the chance JUMP on that shit,
Japan is fucking awesome!
I lived there for 3 years on and off the NAF Atsugi Naval base. I lived there when 9/11 happened and shit got tense as fuck. They turned that base into a fortress, bringing in the Army from the nearby Camp Zama Army base and all their tanks, APC's, and even a machine gun nest at the front gate.
Special Forces patrolled the ENTIRE base with big ass guns, while the Japan Self-Defense Forces still were not allowed to have guns, so they used wooden ones....

It was fucking great, ill remember it for the rest of my life,especially Mt. Fugi

I want to go back so bad.
