SEEC photography is a project that blends art and science, utilizing modern technology to record the movement of light and drawing inspiration from the universal physical constant for the speed of light. The project aims to familiarize the general public with this physical phenomenon by capturing light moving across familiar objects, paying homage to iconic images from the history of photography. By using exposure times shorter than 0.3 nanoseconds, the authors are able to capture light in the process of writing an image.
SEEC photography is a project at the intersection of art and science. It uses modern technology to record the motion of light, to see c, that is, the universal physical constant for the speed of light and the inspiration for the project name SEEC. In order to familiarize the general public with this physical phenomenon, SEEC records light moving across familiar objects, with visual scenes paying homage to iconic images from the history of photography. Exposure times shorter than 0.3 nanoseconds allow the authors to capture light (Greek: phos) in the process of writing (Greek: graphein) an image.
