[photo-3d] Hyperstereo artists?

Hi everyone, I'm new to the group and relatively new to 3D.  I've 
learned a lot from reading the posts in here, and I hope to make this 
the first of many contributions!

Anyway, I was wondering if there are any photographers who specialize 
in hyperstereo work.  As I was pondering 3D the other day, I suddenly 
became fascinated with the notion of hyperstereo, as it produces a 
result we are incapable of seeing otherwise.

My thoughts went as follows: Normal 3D photography (in my opinion) is 
meant to capture the essense of a moment as it truly existed, and 
shows the viewer what they would have seen if they were standing
where the photographer was when the picture was taken. Theoretically, 
if you were to visit that spot, what you see in reality would closely 
match the picture.

Hyperstereo, on the other hand, presents us with a view that would 
be impossible to see in any way other than through photography - this 
notion makes me wonder if hyperstereo is more of an artform than 
normal 3D photography.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Mojo
