THIS PHOTO MACHINE WAS A CONCEPT OF NEED. IT WAS MADE AS THE WAY THE PHOTOGRAPHER JOHN HIOS SEE's THE WORLD. JUST LIKE THE EXPRESSIONIST MADE THEIR OWN COLOR, IN THIS SAME WAY JOHN MADE HIS OWN APPARATUS, TO SUIT THE NEEDS REQUIRED FOR SPECIAL PANORAMIC NEEDS.
IT IS BASED ON A PERIPHERAL VIEW SYSTEM, AS OPPOSED TO A CENTRIFUGAL 360 PANORAMIC CAMERA. WHICH MEANS IN SIMPLE TERMS IT IS MATHEMATICALLY INVERTED PERSPECTIVE.MUTI-PLANE.
IN THIS WAY, WE HAVE INDEPENDENT VIEWS, DIFFERENT SPATIAL PLANUS TANGENTS, [MULTI-PERSPECTIVES] 3d VIEWS THAT ARE SUPERIMPOSED TO 2d FORMAT
SO IT IS THE CAMERA, THAT IS CALIBRATED TO DO THE MONTAGE, WITHOUT THE NEED FOR TOO MUCH WORK LATER. ONE WOULD HAVE TO TAKE INTO THOUGHT IT WAS MADE IN THE DAYS BEFORE photo-merger IN PHOTOSHOP TYPE ENVIRONMENT, BUT TO DAY IT IS WHAT ' s NEEDED FOR THE BEST QUALITY, WITH THE BEST OF BOTH, ANALOG-SCANNED, AND DIGITALIZED. IT BECOMES A WORK BEYOND WORDS.
PLEASE NOTE THE WORK HERE ON VIEW COMES FROM A IN CAMERA NEGATIVE.
IT IS A PRODUCT OF THE CAMERA AND NOT MONTAGE OR PHOTO-MERGER, note : IT WAS MADE INSIDE THE CAMERA ON THE FLY.

A SAMPLE OF PANORAMIC WORK ESPECIALLY FOR WIDE VIEWS.
