Ian Christie (Birkbeck College,University of London)<\/h2>\n

Denying depth:uncovering the hidden history of 3D in photography and film<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

If stereoscopy has been a more significant and continuous presence in modern imaging media than is conventionally recognised, why has it been consistently marginalised by photographic and film historians? After its huge popularity in the second half of the 19th century, there were expectations that stereo moving pictures would follow. Yet even after practical display systems emerged in the 1930s, resistance has continued,often fuelled by a mixture of economic and psycho-aesthetic justification.What’s the problem?<\/p>\n

Ian Christie\u00a0<\/strong>is Anniversary Professor of Film and Media History at Birkbeck College, University of London, and a curator and broadcaster. He wrote and co-produced a BBC TV series\u00a0The Last Machine<\/em>, presented by Terry Gilliam, in 1994; and \u00a0the \u00a0exhibitions \u00a0he \u00a0has\u00a0 \u00a0worked\u00a0 \u00a0on\u00a0 \u00a0include\u00a0Eisenstein:\u00a0 \u00a0His\u00a0 \u00a0Life\u00a0 \u00a0and Art\u00a0<\/em>(1988),\u00a0Spellbound:ArtandFilm\u00a0<\/em>(1996) and\u00a0Modernism:Designing a New World\u00a0<\/em>(2006). A Fellow of the British Academy and Slade Professor of Fine Art at Cambridge University in 2006, with a lecture series entitled ‘Cinema Has Not yet Been Invented’, he is especially interested in mediaecology and archaeology, and in audiences-the subject of his most recent book.<\/p>\n
