Typology Machine Work-in-Progress

Concept:

I’m interested in recording fruits or food decaying in time-lapse and transforming them into a slit-scan format for the final works.

 

Slit-Scan:

Definition: Slit-scan is a photographic technique that uses a narrow slit to capture a subject, resulting in a variety of image effects.

I’m choosing this imaging technique because I believe it’s a creative and effective way to represent the concept of time, which is often used for capturing time-lapses or movements.

Process Plan:

Set up a shooting booth with multiple iPhones to capture time-lapse videos or images of various fruits and foods decaying over a 1-2 week period. Then, apply post-production processes to create the slit-scan effect.

 

Questions to resolve:

1. The post-production technique: Coding, After Effects, or 3D photogrammetry? This will also determine whether I should capture the process using video or still image formats.
2. The type of slit-scan effect: Strip, video cube, or subject-shaped?
