The Brian May Archive of Stereoscopy has announced a free in-person 3-D presentation given by photo historian Denis Pellerin: 'Music and Musicians in the Stereoscope'. The event will be held as part of the Stereoscopy Day celebrations on Saturday 21st June, starting at 1.30pm at St. Mary le Strand Church, London.
The fourth annual Stereoscopy Day, an international celebration of stereoscopic 3-D, will take place on 21st June 2025. Several of this year's events have been announced.
An afternoon of two free online talks has been announced on 20th June 2025, looking at the discovery of arsenic in the cardboard mounts of 19th century stereoscopic photographs, ways to mitigate any risks, and the wealth and value of information within the images.
Thanks to new research, it's now possible to date some British stereoscopic photographs to 1857 using clues within the images.
Sending everyone best wishes for a happy and healthy 2025!

This stereoscopic adventure started with 24 glass 3-D negatives of Hawaii, taken by an amateur in the 1910s. Through his amazing research, Denis has identified a long-lost Hawaiian event, those in attendance, a royal estate, and the world-travelling photographer himself, offering an immersive magical glimpse into a forgotten era.
The latest i3DMovieMaker update has enabled the Looking Glass Go to display stereoscopic (3-D) and Spatial photos and videos with compatible iPhones. Here's a step-by-step guide to show you how!
