Did I tell you I got a new LOMO? It’s mighty awesome! Let me tell you about it…
It’s Bright Blue, ultra-lightweight, low-maintenance ripcord-winding 35mm camera that fits perfectly in your hand for spontaneous shooting! Press the the shutter release once, and over two seconds the 4 lenses enigmatically open–CLICK! CLICK! CLICK! CLICK! one after the other. And Viola! you have four little panoramic shots on one photoprint.
.
THE RESULT: Time-Space Continuum is totally out of whack… delay and acceleration, distortion and shrinkage… blasted and turned… all put back together to give you a whole new image. Things originally happened at different moments in time and in different places can suddenly be seen in series on one and the same photograph. This is the masterpiece they call “SuperSample”!
.
However, Simply planning to combine images in a series is nothing special nowadays as anyone can whip up a montage of anything they want in a computer. But, wait for it! SuperSampling is not about design, It’s not about the artistic act of combining elements to form a montage, or constructs from the lone artistic brain. Nope, The fact of the matter is that we are dealing with a whole different proverbial kettle of fish here: We are talking about new major challenge in artistic coincidence in everyday situations, the creative movement of the chaos in Life with some casual SuperSampling!

So, why SuperSampling?
People are explorers, discoverers: they play, they make art. The human eye is thirsty for images, the brain is greedy for them, mad about them and insatiable, always wanting more and more than there to be had. It’s just the way our minds and eyes are put together. SuperSampling changes the very essence of things: If they belonged together, they fell apart. What was there once has suddenly vanished or it’s back in duplicate, short things get long and long ones get shortened. SuperSampling changes the way you look at things. You see them them with four eyes and in four dimensions. You see them them from top to bottom, left and right, the back and front and, the essential bit, before and after/early and late. All at the same time!
” That’s beautiful, gorgeous and divine!”

SuperSampling can save your life. Everyday, while doing sport. while kissing your girlfriend and when you’re off travelling. You haven’t gotten a clue where you really are, what you were doing or what you should be doing, or where the whole thing is actually leading? Reach for your SuperSampler and SH-O-O-O-O-T the soul out of your mortal remains. Quench your Gaze’s thirst, reward it with thousands of wonderful creations, true works of art… and a little spark of purpose to life…
I’m already taking it with me everywhere I go, whatever I’m doing, whenever I want!
.
I’m now also a SuperSampler!
