Note: This photograph has been processed. In the original image this region of the image was primarily black. Contrast has been pushed to make these structures visible. This separate wallet was originally used for experiments after "the hack" when H〓N first went offline for a period of time. So this seems appropriate. This image was taken November 27th 2021. 

I take pictures of moments that never happened and landscapes that don’t exist using a smartphone camera, a light source, and my finger. The process is a form of generative photography. The input of color and movement creating the raw materials that are processed as if the manufacturer's intent had been closely followed. This last step forms the engine that converts color and movement into a photograph. The divergence between the input and output can be substantial and in some instances the processing fails partially or entirely. 

I started out on hicetnunc and it is unlikely that I would have started minting my work in any other environment. Some combination between the blankness of the UI and the tolerance of the community I found on twitter.

All Costanzas are Costanzas. Some are grails. Others are also grails. Costanzas all flow from a common source image. There is no plan. There is no utility. There won’t be more than 64 unique Costanzas.

These were all made with Conjure (which shut down on June 10th). Most images went through at least two rounds of manipulation with a specific set of goals in mind. I noticed that more structured stage one images transformed into more well defined flowing stage two images. The thumbnail image needed to clearly evoke the source Costanza. 

There will be a few non-canonical Costanzas. This all started because someone may have accidentally for some good reasons taken something a bit too seriously. It happens. So I am not being extra rigorous in my gate keeping. 

Some collaboration with @aebrer is woven throughout this. More in spots. Less in other spots. 

Costanza 004

A collection of single editions by celadoor. Images start as patterns of light written out in the panorama feature on the iPhone camera. These patterns and the movement of the camera form the seed that the image processor turns into a photograph.

I take pictures of moments that never happened and landscapes that don’t exist using a smartphone camera, a light source, and my finger. Recently I have also started using paper money and credit cards.

This collection is limited to different interpretations of a Costanza, which is a city in Italy.  All the pieces are created with conjure.

Blood + Money is a description of the materials I am using in the photograph and also an important topic in a time of explosive inequality.
