The Notorious B.I.G.




Und das hier ist wieder mal ein Beitrag, der durch einen Blogleser angeregt wurde. Danke an Michael. Christopher Wallace wurde 1972 in Brooklyn geboren, war während der 1990er-Jahre einer der bedeutendsten Rapper in den Vereinigten Staaten und starb bereits 1997 in Los Angeles eines unnatürlichen, aber filmreifen Todes während eines Drive-By-Shootings. 

Wer mehr über Notorious B.I.G. erfahren möchte, kann sich hier in der Online-Enzyklopedie schlau machen:

In diesem Video sieht man Herrn Wallace im Alter von 17 Jahren, also 1989, bei einem Liveauftritt in Brooklyn. 




Der Stadtteil von Brooklyn, in dem dieser Künstler seinen Heimathafen hatte, nennt sich "Bedford-Stuyvesant", abgekürzt: Bed Stuy.

Offenbar hat man den Musiker in seiner Heimat noch nicht vergessen, was zum Beispiel durch dieses Gemälde an der Ecke Franklin Avenue und DeKalb Avenue untermalt wird, Mural genannt. Hier der Google Street View von diesem Gebäude:




Ich habe auch mal probeweise versucht, den genauen Standort zu finden, an dem das Video aufgenommen wurde, aber das Ergebnis hat mich nicht hundertprozentig überzeugt (Ecke Franklin / Putnam Avenue). 

The Secret behind the Stereo Cards - Part 2



Vor einigen Tagen habe ich bereits einmal einen Beitrag über die Stereo Cards und den Stereograminator veröffentlicht, der den 3-D-Effekt, der sich hinter diesen zumeist mehr als 110 Jahre alten Fotografien versteckt, sichtbar macht.

Heute möchte ich noch eine weitere Reise in das dreidimensionale 19. Jahrhundert unternehmen, dieses Mal schwerpunktmäßig in den Central Park von Manhattan, in dem damals offenbar sehr gerne mit der doppelten Kamera herumfotografiert wurde und mit einigen faszinierenden Resultaten. Die Entstehungszeit der Stereofotogramme liegt in den meisten Fällen zwischen 1860 und 1905.

Auch dieses Mal besteht die Möglichkeit, das fotografische Gezappel mit Musik zu unterlegen. Ich schlage das hier vor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4RnhPjjNII
