Thanks!

If you’re interested in photography, building your own camera is extremely rewarding, and I can’t recommend it strongly enough. Hit me up if you need any guidance!

Thanks!

Cabbage covered a bunch of the process below. In this case, I had a neutral grey background and laid on my back, sticking my hands into the view of the camera. And while watching the scan progress on a screen I moved my hands around until I got this.

It’s a fairly cumbersome process, as each scan takes a couple of minutes and any unintended motion gets captured as well. Out of the 40 or so attempts, this one is the cleanest, both with regards to unintended motion, and with the pose coming out the way I wanted it to.

That webside felt like cancer

Deus Ex is amazing, if you can get passed the aged graphics, it’s a masterclass in storytelling and game design.

That’s really nice

Slightly toast two slices of whole grain bread in a buttered pan, between them, you put butter fried chanterelle mushrooms, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Bonus points if you found the the chanterelles yourself.

As for busy road at night, I’m afraid that with this way of doing scanning photography it would be quite uninteresting. The motion is way too quick, and cars would render as with either weird vertical lines or very small diagonal squiggles, depending on which direction you scan.

I suggest looking up some talks by the Italian photographer Adam Magyar, he’s done some great talks on transchronologal (?) photography, and is a great artist himself.

I love the small insights into signal theory/processing generated by this image, this is really cool stuff! Thank you for chiming in.

Of course there’s some ancient broadcast standard at the bottom of 44.1khz, thanks for the clarification! (I work in film/TV and still struggle with explaining explaining ‘illegal’ values to some clients on certain deliverables)

Or a wheatfield, definetly not water though…

I haven’t really considered that, I’m assuming the (in this case) vertical sampling is ‘global’, as in the values at each sensor site is locked at the same time and then read out from the serial bus.

If there was a delay, stuff like fluorescent lighting would read as a moire pattern, but I’ve only ever encountered streaking/linear distortion in those circumstances.

I think the ‘griddyness’ or general sense of direction in the water is purely a function of how water moves and not a result of readout delay.

I’d love to be proven wrong, though, so if I can do some experiment to determine either way, I’m all ears.

Thanks! I’d love to hear your thoughts if you feel like sharing.

Agreed, it’s usually not that spiky

Thanks! Your nitpicking is most welcome.

Thanks, I agree, it’s one of my favorite shots from this camera.

A really good boy, and that’s what matters, thanks for the BTS shot.

When rolling shutter is the main event, better make it look good, right?

I have a series of shots with the fabric, it’s the centerpiece of all of them, in that case it helps a lot!

Since I built the camera, I’ve been looking for ways to use its artifacts and idiosyncrasies to make pictures no one has ever seen, the temporal skew that it allows is super interesting to me.

Yes, aside from global contrast adjustments, there’s a circular level and local contrast adjustment on the dancer, to make her stand out a little bit more

I’m kinda in love with taking an ‘undesirable’ artifact and sticking it front and front and center. Thank you!

I guess you’re talking about Drake V, the one with the horizontal waveform? That is a big piece of fabric waving in the wind during the exposure.

I love this! The dismissive arrogance is wonderful.
