Maybe 8 years ago I taught an introduction to digital photography in community centres to adult learners. It was great and lasted about a year, we would go out in groups to take photos, then go back to a community centre to download the photos.
From one of these classes, I got to know a quantum and nuclear physicist and we became friends. Anyhow, I would meet him after the class in the canteen to have a brew and he helped me understand physics and quantum physics by translating them simply.
He explained that when I take a night-time photo on a 30-second exposure, the intense blues purples, yellows and reds in the photo do really exist.
With our eyes we see 24 frames a second and process this information as a moving image, filtering out distractions and filtering in what captures our attention. Within photography, a 30-second exposure captures a total of 720 frames of information in one image which would be one frame.
Basically, our eyes and brain filter out a lot, probably because it would be overwhelming for sight, sound and touch to experience every experience intensely or continually.
Our minds are also like this, with politics, mainstream media and TV we get lots of information and filter out what interest or compels us. Sadly humanity has got to the point where most people don't think for themselves and have a programmed conditioned answer for any given situation.
I have always lived on the edge and have endeavoured to think for myself and to trust my intuition. I am sure that are also millions of others who try like I do to avoid programming and think for themselves.
I suppose I am sharing my thoughts publicly hoping people will return to thinking for themselves. Instead of being so compliant with an inherently corrupted control system, to break out and create a better future
