Just as a strange kind of wtf there are approximately 36000 photos from 10 days of studio practice, and a rude quantity of video footage. All photographs were taken as part of timelapses so the framing is effectively arbitrary and designed to cover the space.

I’ve mostly resisted thinking too much about what I might do with the photos and videos but here are two images from yesterday (13 March 2024) presented as a single image. Katye and I never danced together but it’s very easy to create masks for the photos and then populate a single image with 2 (or 1000s) of figures. Note that I also added a blue filter to the images.

Here’s the original of just Katye:

And then here’s an composition with a second image of Katye (this time the mask isn’t so crisp) taken from a different perspective. Curious to note (even with these knocked together images) just how different it is when there are two versions of the same person in the image — that it immediately is recognisably “photoshopped”.
