Here's a couple of images from the demo of a slit-scanning camera which Athanasios Velios (a researcher at camberwell) set up at the end of last term in the college main hall. the microchip-fish-eye-lens takes a single slice image from top to bottom as the camera rotates through 360 degrees. so you get everything. that's me sneaking around the background. the red blob on the right is Mieko! she's gone thin! the man from http://www.spheron.com was interested in further collaborations with artists - the camera is mainly used commercially. athanasios is working on a conservation project. here's the whole image the camera took hugely reduced to post it here. athanasios is on the right. the image is HDR which means that a huge bracket of light exposures are covered for utra fine detailing.
