Happy fourth of July! After a week of vacation, I’m back to active duty. In the meantime, a few interesting things happened that are worth noting.

  • The end of the panorama? Olympus has announced a prototype for a 360 degree camera.
  • Regina Hackett and Chas Bowie have both put out “top-ten” photo blog lists. They’re much more diverse lists than my narrow blogroll, and worth checking out to see what suits your own tastes. A few updates to my own roll will be happening soon. (Page 291 was proud to make That’s a Negative’s top list. Thanks Chas!)
  • Clear your mind’s eye, because what you imagine before looking at something influences how you see it.
  • The NYT reports on the cinematic visuals that Peter Greenaway has used to transform The Last Supper, but NY Mag’s Vulture goes one better and finds a video of part of the performance from the Guardian.
  • Camera-to-camera sabotage: this new device allows you to secretly project your own images onto other people’s photographs as they make them.
