Every day, forever, Bob Weisz posts a “Wigglegram” to the Tumblr Four Realz. These are GIFs made by compiling 35mm film photographs from the Nimslo 3D stereo camera, which has sadly been out of production since 1990. The content is heavily focused on glimpses of New Orleans night and street life, so Weisz is blessed with an already (infamously) colorful palette to work with.
The grainy analog quality of these lends the images a sense of nostalgia—as if the viewer is preemptively, fondly remembering all the weird shit we hope won’t get washed away by gentrification or rising sea levels. There are pages and pages of these to scroll through, so get ready to lose yourself for at least an hour. Authentic NOLA hangover not included.
