The word “Photography” comes from two Greek words, Photos (light) and Graphos
(writing, painting), so “drawing with the light”. Taking pictures needs some devices
and a particular process in Space and Time. According to Einstein the basic structure
of our world is SpaceTime and things exist in a spacetime continuum, a world of four
dimensions: height, width, depth and time. A generative process is usually referred to
as “setting in motion”. Motion is the essence of Life. Selecting
particular initial conditions, adding a fourth dimension and photographing motion by
means of randomised generative processes lead to very expressionistic
results. "Painting with light".

Dedicated to the memory of Prof. Mauro Francaviglia.
