 Expertise: Full-time holographer, published author, educator, talkshow host; and owner of laser & holography studio for 25 years (actively involved in field for 32 years). I'll take questions related to the creation of 3-dimensional laser holograms, and the field of holography in reference to the visual arts. If there is a question that I cannot answer, I will do my best to point you to where, or how, the answer can be found. Experience in the following TYPES OF HOLOGRAMS: white light reflection; pseudocolor reflection; stereogram/integral/multiplex (flat); laser transmission holograms. TYPES OF APPLICATIONS: archival/historical; mini-portraits (both film and digital based); commercial/corporate logos; medical.
Experience in the area
I viewed my first hologram in 1968 (40 years ago); got actively involved with the field in 1976 (32 years ago); and opened my own laser and holography studio in 1983 (25 years ago). I am a full-time holographer. Published author (Shoebox Holography / Ross Books); Educator (laser and holography programs, public and private); Talkshow host: HoloTalk
