They had a movie playing there once a time lapse about carnivorous plants.
The guy who made it had never made a 3-D movie before. He used a lego
mindstorms system, one digital camera. It would, on a pre-programmed
schedule, take one picture, rotate slightly, then take the other. The pix
were assembled later into color filtered 3-d.

I hear it worked well, mostly it just gives me a raging headache. I think I
have one eye that is dominent.( At least that would explain the leather
contact lenses, and the little tiny whips...)
