Integral Holograms
These holograms were made of sequential frames of motion picture film imaged on an optical table through a large cylindrical lens onto the holographic recording plane.The filmed images were recorded with a Mitchell 35mm motion picture camera while the subject was on a rotating platform. A 360-degree integral hologram can comprise about 2000 individual holograms.
Not apparent in the photographs below, the virtual images of the subjects float about 8" behind the holograms. When the hologram is rotated the viewer is not aware of the "lines" visible in the photographs below.
Self Portrait # 1, 1978, 8"x10"
8" x 10" integral hologram on glass plate
Margie, 1982, 8" x 17"
120-degree segment of a 360-degree integral hologram of a dance sequence performed by modern dancer Margaret Schoen.
Self Portrait While on a Rattan Chair, 1978, 8" x 17"
120-degree segment of a 360-degree integral hologram recorded with film made in 1976
Dimitri, 1976, 8" x 10"
integram hologram of the classical guitarist Dimitri recorded on 8" x 10" holographic glass plate
Kata, 1976, 8" x 10"
integral hologram of myself performing a kata. The hologram was recorded on a 8"x10" glass plate. Subjects with a large dynamic range are difficult subjects for this type of holography as evidenced by the uneven brightness of the image.
Distortion Study, 1988, 8" x 8"
Integral hologram of purposeful lens distortion
Golden Eagle, 1986, 8" x50"
segment of a 360-degree hologram of a golden eagle taxidery subject.
