3D : history, theory and aesthetics of the transplane image / Jens Schröter ; translated by Brigitte Pichon and Dorian Rudnytsky, revised by Jens Schröter.
"There is a blind spot in recent accounts of the history, theory and aesthetics of optical media: namely, the field of the three-dimensional, or trans-plane, image. It has been widely used in the 20th century for very different practices - military, scientific and medical visualization - precis...
