This would be a baseball cap with two camera-microphones hooked onto either side, so that a 3D image of the wearer's life can be experienced remotely by a person crossing their eyes magic-eye-style and focusing on the two video feeds set side by side on a web page, and listening to a stereo version of
the audio. Effects could be generated by turning the baseball cap into a jesters hat with the two cameras and microphones being separated widely for an exagerated 3D effect, both auditorily and visually. Maybe Justin.tv (link) can be turned into a you-tube-like phenomena where camera-wearers compete to do the craziest stuff so that fans can vicariously experience what it is like to, say walk naked into a high society ball or give a crazy improptu speech in a conservative setting. Eye contact would become very important.

So, like, a continuous video of someone
doing interesting stuff, in which everything
is visible in 3D apart from the person
doing the interesting stuff? Cool. |

How can you have eye contact if you're cross-eyed?? |
|
|
you could have eye contact with two different people at the same time.. |
|
|
I tried very hard while crossing my eyes
to make them contact. My nose was the
problem. |

Magic-eye-style crossed eyes is brilliant. Guess that eliminates the need for special 3-D glasses with polarized or red-blue or timed-shutter lenses. The youtube-like competition between camera-wearers seems like that would only a couple steps shy of the feelies from Aldous Huxley's _Brave New World_ and the virtual reality stuff from the movie _Strange Days_. Thanks for the insightful post. |
