    I recently revisited David hackney's work on the use of a camera camera obscura in art and the Tim Veeners documentary which lead me to "The Eye as an Instrument: TIM'S VERMEER". This talk was given by Dr. Tim Chupp a professor of the Department...

    When I say "the perspective works", I mean that the composite scene could be modeled in reality to look like that. The composite image contains no "perspective errors" if we accept that the second road is more slanted and the second tower is more...

    An October 21, 2026 paper in Meteoritics and Planetary Science touches on some interesting bunk that had been presented as science at planetary science conferences and published in less-rigorous journals: Public fascination with impact craters...

    Yes. I didn't mean to be pedantic or a PitA, but you brought a good topic, so it seemed like a good time to help you with how things get posted here. We all had to learn. It's a bit more complicated that something like Facebook or Reddit, but the...

    It appears that there's a new conspiracy man on the block who spends his time credulously and uncritically reviewing debunked conspiracy books to an audience of equally credulous individuals Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQZJXx6hD7g...

    "Apparently behind" indeed. Personally, I just don't see it. The video is highly compressed, and I don't think it's possible to determine whether the light is actually behind the tree or not. There are simply too many other indicators...
