Julius von Bismark’s “Image Fulgurator”
Mayhem through the medium of photography and the terrorizing of tourists. Brilliant…
“The Image Fulgurator is a device for physically manipulating photographs. It intervenes when a photo is being taken, without the photographer being able to detect anything. The manipulation is only visible on the photo afterwards.”
Julius von Bismarck’s ‘Image Fulgurator’ projects an image into the photographs of random people on the street. The image projected is invisible to human eyes. This of course is almost never good or incredibly hysterical, depending on your point of view.
Rigging up a flash unit to project through an old SLR and hooking it up to an optical slave trigger, whenever someone takes a picture, the flash on their own camera trips the slave and fires the “Fulgurator”, projecting an image into the scene undetected.
Both Pop Photo and Wired did a writeup on this. Check out www.juliusvonbismarck.com for a more in depth explanation on this tool of terror.
