Beginning on May 1, 2025, University Relations will no longer accept submissions to Cornell Video (formerly known as CornellCast). This is the first step toward decommissioning the service altogether.
Moving forward, we urge you to use the Video On Demand (VOD) service provided by CIT to host your video content. Instructions for uploading to VOD and general information about the platform can be found at the Video on Demand website.
We are working with CIT to determine the best path toward migrating existing videos in the Cornell Video collection to VOD. Owners of Cornell Video collections will be contacted in the coming weeks to facilitate this effort.
It is our intent to sunset CornellVideo on June 30, 2025. If you have questions or concerns, please contact the Digital Experience team at cornellcast@cornell.edu.

Cornell professor unlocks the mystery of paintings

Richard Johnson can see right through the masterpieces of Rembrandt and Van Gogh.
The Cornell University electrical and computer engineering professor is a digital art detective, able to unlock the mysteries of a work's age and authenticity by analyzing its underlying canvas or paper. Using high-resolution X-ray images, the 64-year-old academic can actually determine if paintings came from the same bolt of hand-loomed canvas, each of which has a varying thread density pattern that can be as unique as a fingerprint. Linking multiple pieces of canvas to the same bolt can shore up arguments for authenticity and even put works in chronological order.
It's a valuable service to world-class museums that comes through the unlikely cross-pollinating of traditional art history and contemporary computer science.
Thanks for writing. We will be in touch shortly to address any questions, concerns, or technical difficulties you may have.
