Re: pinhole projection

Rob,
Here's a really great way to use the inverted camera concept. Turn a room
into a camera obscura and capture the image inside during the daytime. When
it gets dark turn on the lights inside the camera obscura and go outside.
Capture the image outside on a screen... the universe is your camera!

If you want to use it as a device in a play, make a smaller one and use a
translucent screen carried from place to place on stage while the rest of
the lights are out (Hamlet?). The advantage here is that the image is not
projected so you won't see the kind of beam you get using a slide projector.
