By using material, I tried to approach the elusive. By every meaning: my images are also physically existing objects. But physical reality has lost its relevance. Everything we create not only enters the digital space, but exists almost exclusively there. I visualize this transformation by using the automated tools and algorithms that make up virtuality. I capture and convert the signal stream to create a third reality. In Virtual – Projections, I investigated aspects of the use of the human body as a means of expression, with the consideration the impact of digitalization on aesthetic interpretations, human relationships and in nude photography as a genre. I digitized about 200 wet plate collodion and about 200 analog nude pictures. After adding nearly 400 digital test images, I automated this 793 Nudes into a single image with automatisms used in digital photo and film post-production – to create an algorithm compiled „photograph”.
