SteveG -
Crazy coincidence... just today we had planned our Hague visit but
waved off due to heavy rain (15 minute walks on both ends of our train
travel if we don't see anything *but* the primary goal)... We are
rescheduled for a (less rainy) Sunday visit. A new friend/colleague
here Hank Kune (who you will be meeting in due time, he is working with
Hubville's Anders Varger and is a good candidate for DualSpace
spec/alpha) recommended the Panorama Mesdag which I didn't click
immediately as being the specific classical Panorama you had referenced
months back... but as I was making the decision to wait it was because
of *another* feature in the Hague you didn't (I don't think) mention
that has significant relevance to augmented spatial reality and
urban/landscapes.

Steve,
Reminder of this past thread on panoramas and to check out Panorama
Mesdag (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panorama_Mesdag) while in the
Hague. I don't want to oversell it but I love the pure analog creation
of immersion. Also, perhaps it was special because Ali, the boys and
I, spent a few days prior in the Hague beachside district of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheveningen which is the location of
the panorama paiting so I was very familiar with the location.
Reminder on the era of panorama immersions in this thread:
Cool youtube on history of panoramic drawing from Calton Hill,
Edinburgh for immersive exhibitions in London

there was another museum in The Hague we went to, Mauritshuis, that
had some other artist but I forgot his name.

Thought of you, Robert, given your time in Edinburgh and for some
reason when I heard the UofEdinburgh librarian utter "It does and it
doesn't <https://youtu.be/wpSeIkl2EI4?t=94>" - I felt your presence :-)
BTW, I was blown away when I experienced Panaorma Mesdag in person at
the Hague with Ali and the boys a couple years ago
https://www.holland.com/global/tourism/destinations/the-hague/panorama-mesdag.htm
The mixed media effect with real sand dunes and grass in the
foreground, the gazebo and the skylight that allowed natural sunlight
and cloud shadows for illumination on the 360 panorama gave an awesome
sense of presence. Better than VR headset as I experienced in person
with my family unencumbered with headset and intersacting with
foreground people. Google Photos
