Another one from the scanner, this is 'vær'.

A study in what a pair of hands can do in a shot. Hands are a big part of a shot I’m planning, and every bit of research into how you can play with the motion helps.
Scanned top to bottom over about two minutes, open lens, two well placed tube lights to get the drama going.
This is incredible!! Could you describe the process? Are you just repositioning your hands as the scanner head moves? I’d love try to screen print that or something. The gradients are super delicate, and it almost looks like a pixel sort effect. Just all around very cool.
Thanks!
Cabbage covered a bunch of the process below. In this case, I had a neutral grey background and laid on my back, sticking my hands into the view of the camera. And while watching the scan progress on a screen I moved my hands around until I got this.
It’s a fairly cumbersome process, as each scan takes a couple of minutes and any unintended motion gets captured as well. Out of the 40 or so attempts, this one is the cleanest, both with regards to unintended motion, and with the pose coming out the way I wanted it to.
Very cool—it didn't strike me first that all three hands could be yours.
Well great work! I hope to see more!
Check out OP's post history: There's at least a brief description in one old post:
So it's a scanner, but it's highly modified into a camera.
Also worth checking out OP's other posts. It's all pretty neat.
I love this one! And the title (dual meaning: "weather" and "to be") works great. Works equally well whether you see three hands gripping each other or a tree struggling to stay upright, presumably torn by the elements.
Edit: Here's a comment containing a picture of the camera and some information about the process!
Thanks for all the info! Very helpful. I love that it’s a whole camera not just an open scanner!
