Resumo
One of the most interesting features of the travel stereoview
series is not their three-dimensional effect
but rather the intertwined outcome of realism and
“being-thereness” in the experience of early twentieth
century armchair travellers. On the set of Italy through
the Stereoscope, the viewer’s “path of the gaze” was a
novelty compared to two dimensional photographs
and stereoviews. The Underwood & Underwood publishing
company created a stereoscopic multimodal
tour to improve the impression of realism with a proprioceptive
perception of the scene. The procedure of
textual débrayage, the description of the experience as
it is happening here and now, the direction of the viewer’s
gaze with a narrative itinerary, the changing of the
visual convergence with the variation in the points of
attention: all of these elements fostered a synaesthesia
for the spectator. The result was immersion in an explorable
space between the “point of view” (2D images)
and the “point of being” (virtual reality).
