Professor Hamacher (Department of Immersive Convergence Content) Presents Glasses-Free 3D Film at Exhibition Commemorating the 140th Anniversary of Diplomatic Relations Between Korea and France

French film director Sébastien Simon and Professor Alaric Hamacher of Kwangwoon University

  Professor Alaric Hamacher of the Department of Immersive Convergence Content at Kwangwoon University is presenting an innovative form of glasses-free stereoscopic cinema at ARCHÉOLOGIE DU PRÉSENT (Archaeology of the Present), an exhibition organized by the Francophone artists' collective Nuances. The exhibition is being held at KOTE in Insadong, Seoul, from October 1 to 14, 2026.

  The exhibition features the stereoscopic film ONO, presented on the Sony Spatial Reality Display ELF-SR2. The ELF-SR2 is a 27-inch spatial display that allows viewers to experience three-dimensional images without the need for special 3D glasses. This exhibition marks the first presentation of a stereoscopic film using the Sony ELF-SR2 at an exhibition in South Korea. It demonstrates new possibilities for presenting and experiencing stereoscopic cinema not only in traditional movie theaters but also in galleries, museums, and other cultural spaces.

ONO was produced in collaboration with French film director Sébastien Simon and producer Minchol Cha, with Professor Hamacher serving as Director of Photography and Stereographer. The film was shot in 3D using a Sony VENICE cinema camera in collaboration with the stereoscopic production team at DIKE3D. Through the distinctive spatial qualities of stereoscopic imagery, the film captures the changing urban landscape of Haeundae in Busan.

  The exhibition builds on Professor Hamacher's longstanding collaboration with Sony in the fields of stereoscopic imaging and spatial display technologies. From filming with the Sony VENICE camera to presenting glasses-free 3D content on the Sony ELF-SR2, the project introduces a new workflow that connects the production and exhibition of contemporary stereoscopic cinema.

  Professor Hamacher is an award-winning filmmaker and cinematographer specializing in stereoscopic 3D filmmaking, digital holography, and immersive media. His work continues to explore the integration of cinematic production techniques with emerging spatial imaging and display technologies.

  The exhibition is being held as part of a cultural exchange initiative commemorating the 140th anniversary of diplomatic relations between South Korea and France.
