Panomorphosis

[pano- panorama, -morphosis variation of form]

 

Shooting on smartphone in panorama mode isn’t new, what here makes the difference is the instrument use. Instead of pivoting around a point, the photographer and the subject slide along parallel planes.

The instrument software duly stitches together a sequence of vertical images, but in Panomorphosis moments are added in the process. The two margins of the image happened several seconds apart.

Each image time span is different, depending on smartphone RAM and acquired data, and goes well beyond camera's shutter speed.

Tricking the software has unintended, but positive, consequences: works have strong creative and aesthetic power.
