The Mind's Eye was perhaps the first fully digital art to be reproduced in a fully digital publication. It was slated to be the front cover of espRIT; however, the events celebrating the 150th Anniversary of Photography took precedence.

The celebration involved the making of a Daguerreotype in Rochester, NY, and then transmitting the digitized image to France.

I created the Mind's Eye with a combination of software programs including: Digital Darkroom, Pixel Perfect, and a beta version of Photoshop, pre-version 1.0. The whole file fit onto an 800k floppy disk. The 1.4 Mb disks were not yet available.
