delta frequency
delta frequency (2013)
a delta wave is a high amplitude brain wave with a frequency of oscillation between 0–4 hertz. delta waves, like other brain waves, are recorded with an electroencephalogram and are usually associated with the deepest stages of sleep (3 NREM), also known as slow-wave sleep (SWS), and aid in characterizing the depth of sleep.
all images from this short series are digital shots taken in the pitch-darkness, no set-up light source whatsoever. the person was not seen and i was seen by the person while trying to extract those frames from the surrounding Cimmerian-darkness void. the images could obviously not been staged.
few seconds of exposure time was set with high iso applied which resulted in black, empty looking frames. each final image has been revealed by pushing the exposure time further in the editing software and adjusting tones and contrast to digital limits.
the process was applied months after those images were shot, so all corresponding feelings are forgotten.
the moment of having them brought back was extraordinary. it felt like seeing apparitions emerging from a long time forgotten dream.

me: i put myself in a dark room with a person. i can't see her
her: °_°
and she can't see me
i only know that my camera is set up to take images in this dim environment
and that all results in having black images captured
i cant see a thing on my camera after
ah, looks so strange...
yeah, i can't see what person did, what happened
i shoot void
a person undresses but can't see her
the only interaction between us is our voice
i take those black images home and in the software i reveal the images
most of them are totally destroyed
but few are good enough to have some shape seen..
you can reveal more by adjusting contrast and brightness
as a result you get this surreal images taken out of pure darkness
isn't this a bit scary?
why? i find it exciting
it also is
like extracting images from a dream
something never seen by my eyes, yet it's there, happened in front of me...
yes, this is definitely strange and amazing
the images look like processed by a machine
blows my mind
