Loss and Recovery in this AI World
Recently, I faced every digital creator's worst nightmare.
Through an unfortunate oversight, I accidentally reformatted a drive not realising it contained my original, fully retouched, high resolution equirectangular images. These weren't just any files; they were the culmination of a detailed shooting and processing workflow, and the source for all my optimized image tiles.
This was more than a minor setback – it was a catastrophic loss. Without those original equirectangular images, I couldn't add new content to my tours or even re-publish existing ones.
Launching the Pano2VR tour was heartbreaking because it revealed the extent of the issue as it listed the files that could not be found.

I took a minute or two to explore the spaces in and between buildings on my morning walk with Ringo along Stanley Street and Melbourne Street in North Adelaide.
