Paper Abstract
We were the first-ever 'Artists in Residence' at the Royal Greenwich Observatory,
producing a series of holographic artworks based on our artistic 'researches' there
during 1987 and 1988. For the purposes of art we appropriated visual fragments
from old optical experiments, including some by Sir Isaac Newton, which we recreated
in our studio with a laser. We explain how our experience exhibiting in museums
and art galleries since 1984 has influenced the way we make and display holograms.
