1. A method for synthesizing a series of stereoscopic images from a series of images, the series of images exhibiting at least some relative movement, the method comprising:

  • capturing a series of images with a moveable image-capturing device, the series of images exhibiting at least some relative movement of a subject to provide a first series of images;

    generating a second series of temporally modified images of the subject from the first series of images by varying a relative timing of at least some of the images of the first series of images,wherein varying the relative timing comprises at least one of delaying the timing and advancing the timing; and

    displaying the first series of images and the second series of temporally modified images to produce a series of stereoscopic images having at least some stereoscopic appearance;

    wherein the method further comprises varying a position of the moveable image-capturing device relative to the subject, and wherein varying the position of the image capturing device varies the at least some stereoscopic appearance of the series of stereoscopic images.
