P3D zingmag 3D



Two or three of them look "good" in the magazine paper version. (Granted I
have no taste and, by the way, I'm going to make damn sure not to show my
slides to anyone in the 3D community, for fear of mounting problems.)
Otherwise I agree it's not of much interest. As I said to a friend earlier
as we were looking at it, "I guess that's their individual idea of what to
do if someone gives them anaglyph glasses and asks them to make an image."
I wouldn't recommend that anyone shell out the 10 bucks for this thing
unless they just have to have everything anaglyph that they can find.
I can imagine my copy in the recycling soon instead of cluttering up my
tiny studio apartment.
You ought to see the book that came in the shrink-wrap with it. It's 92
pages; trade size paperback consisting of a list of musicians and their
works laid out like text in a novel.
I don't think I'm going to read it.
