Beyond the Naked Eye
A catalogue of 55 scientific and technical photographs covering a wide range of subjects including many where the subject, while not originally perceivable by human eyes, is visualized using specialized photographic tools. Examples of high speed, stroboscopic, schlieren, polarization, infrared and ultraviolet, streak, and several other techniques are presented to visualize a variety of subjects.
Caption information is included in both English and Spanish.
This is also a catalogue that accompanies a traveling exhibition of some of these photographs. The exhibition consists of the 33 photographs in 16x20 inch metal frames and available free to any science or technology museum interested in exhibiting the collection. Contact the author for further details.

Notes on Strip, Streak and Scanning Photography
Photographic techniques that acquire images sequentially instead of instantaneously have a long history of contributing to a the visualization of subjects and time in ways that have had profound, yet often unrecognized, impact on our understanding of physical phenomena.
From cameras that make peripheral records of pottery, the photofinish camera at racetracks, panoramic cameras that cover 360 degrees around them and cameras for other specialized applications, they have one thing in common and this is that one dimension of their records is TIME itself.
Note that this is a work in progress started in 1978. Several equations have not been cleaned up and photographic illustrations, etc. are provided mostly only as drawings. Future versions may be improved but in case I can't get to it this 3rd version may be all that will be ever available.
This latest version includes instructions on improvised cameras for strip/streak photography a unique strip camera for conical panoramic or peripheral applications.

ImagineRIT Peripheral Portraits
On May 3, 2008 a creativity and innovation festival was held at the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY. As part of that event Prof. Andrew Davidhazy (me!) presented an "interactive" experience for visitors where they would be photographed with a unique linear array camera improvised from an obsolete hand-scanner.
The resulting collection of 99 peripheral or "rolou" photographs is included in this book. Every volunteer already received a personal memento print but this collection makes all of them available for examination, evaluatiuon, discussion and, hopefully, appreciation.
Each an every image in this book is unique and unrepeatable because not only do they depend on a particular subject to begin with but also on the subject performing or behaving in a specific way over the time it takes them to make one or more revolutions in front of the camera. To check whether you are included in the collection select "Book Preview" or visit http://people.rit.edu/andpph/a-pix/imagineRIT-all-01.jpg

Little Faces
This is a collection of peripheral or "rollout" portraits designed to supplement an experimental, low-tech, traveling exhibition of portraits made of subjects rotating on a turntable in front of an improvised linear array digital camera.
The photographs are all unique and unrepeatable in their interpretation of any given person since time is one of the very real dimensions in each photograph.
A full explanation of the capture method makes up the first ten pages of the book.
