In their description, the artist says that they were struggling with a clean composition. Thus he let his brain rest and began shooting a multiple exposure without any input from his logical side. The result, Automata by arctoa is a wonderfully complex and mesmerizing photograph that illustrates what can happen when one surrenders themselves during the art making process.

Description

or, A Dream Fever Freneticy of Vertigo Automata.

Another image from the mothballed Spillers Mill, since demolished. Part of a larger series that explored abandoned industry, entitled Forlætan.

Not sure what happened with this one; I transitioned straight from utter frustration with the original clean composition to producing an analogue of a triple exposure almost without input from higher brain functions. I think I like the outcome, almost to the point where I may revisit one or two recent uploads.

That said, the technique could use some work.
