Suddenly, all the artifacts of my past flashed before my eyes.

Eduardo BARRERA ARAMBARRI

Diplomová práce

A brief representation of a lifetime of experiences through images of symbolic objects.

Abstract:

The Diploma work is based on the emulation of memories and sensations through sequenced images rapidly shown on the screen. The extreme close-up photographs re-create the visual and tactile sensations from the deep, almost scientific observation and manipulation of artifacts from the past. For most of the elapsed time, the viewer can not see the whole object being shown on screen. However, according to Gestalt perception principles, the artifacts will be put together by the brain after 'flashing' 30 images of each object during one second, photographed from different angles and points of view. On the first plane, in the center of the frame, a letter will be added Also projected during one second (30 frames). If the viewer dedicates his/her attention to the letters, will be able to put together and read a phrase, which clearly marks the beginning and the end of the loop.
