National 3-D Day, celebrated every March on the third day of the third week of the third month, shines a spotlight on the art, science, and history of stereoscopic 3-D imagery. This day marks the exploration and celebration of the technologies and artistic expressions that have brought three-dimensional experiences to life, from early stereoview cards to modern virtual reality.
Founded in 2019 by stereoscopic artist and researcher Ilicia Benoit, in association with the 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization 3-D SPACE, National 3-D Day first graced calendars on March 17th, 2020. The day is a tribute to the technological advancements in 3-D imagery and an acknowledgment of our physiological design, which naturally perceives the world in three dimensions.
The day's activities are diverse and engaging. Participants learn about the history and science behind 3-D technology and share their personal 3-D experiences, whether they involve movies, books, or art. People are also encouraged to post their 3-D photographs on social media using the hashtag #National3DDay, further fostering a sense of community and shared passion.
Stereo enthusiasts, clubs, and organizations worldwide participate in National 3-D Day by hosting events (conducted safely), online presentations, and sharing pictures and videos on social media. These activities not only celebrate the art form but also aim to educate and illuminate the public on the vast world of stereoscopic 3-D.
This day serves as a reminder of how 3-D technology has evolved and continues to captivate audiences, offering a unique and immersive way to experience art and entertainment.
