David Gilliver, 1979 ~ Psychadelic Light painter

David Gilliver started to experiment with long exposure photography in hours around dusk and after sunset, allowing the camera to keep on exposing for longer time, producing images and effects incapable for the human eye to see.
The technique used by the artist, involves the photographer using a long - duration shutter speed on the camera, while he walks into the picture frame adding the lights he wants, using glow sticks, light orb or torches. The shoot may last as longs a 30 minutes. The effect also makes moving objects blurry, while stationary object remain sharp.

Albert Einstein | L'Autobiografia scientifica

Anthony Falbo, 1953 | Cubist painter

• La mente è come un paracadute. Funziona solo se si apre.
• L'immaginazione è più importante della conoscenza. La conoscenza è limitata, l'immaginazione abbraccia il mondo, stimolando il progresso, facendo nascere l'evoluzione.
• Le persone sono come le biciclette: riescono a mantenere l'equilibrio solo se continuano a muoversi.
• L'uomo che è convinto dell'esistenza e della operatività della legge di causalità non può concepire l'idea di un Essere che interferisce con il corso degli eventi. A patto naturalmente che egli prenda l'ipotesi della causalità veramente sul serio.
