Spherical panoramic photography


The cathedral of Bourges, southern hemicycle at clerestory level.

My students in the ARC | Lab at Vassar have recently returned to the source media files of hundreds of interactive panoramic photographs I made over the past fifteen years, but which were not included as part of the Mapping Gothic project because of temporal and conceptual constraints. They will soon be accessible to students at Vassar via web browser or Google Cardboard.

Each of the following spherical images will open in its own window. To displace the image, click/tap and drag.
