An image is worth more than a thousand words,

by stop talking and show you a few images

So by now, my talk is already 6,000 words long,

What I am trying to do as a photographer,

captured at the very moment where it's bursting,

whether it's a universe made of tiny little beads

strange liquids that behave in very peculiar ways,

or paint that is modeled by centrifugal forces,

I'm always trying to link those two fields together.

What I find very intriguing about those two

is that they both look at the same thing:

They are a response to their surroundings.

And yet, they do it in a very different way.

is usually an emotional approach to its surroundings.

so that my images both speak to the viewer's heart

Let me demonstrate this based on three projects.

The first one has to do with making sound visible.

which is then transported through the air,

and transformed into an audio signal again.

how can I make those sound waves visible?

And now, if I would play a sound through that speaker,

it would cause the crystals to move up and down.

so, together with LG, we captured this motion

to capture more than 3,000 frames per second.

Now in Los Angeles, you could get a decent sunburn

if you're shooting at 3,000 frames per second,

you need to have a silly amount of light, lots of lights.

and lots of lights pointing at the speaker,

put the tiny little crystals on top of that speaker,

and we would do this over and over again,

because of the lights pointing at the speaker.

the speaker was only coming from the right side,

so the right side of my face was completely red

and I looked like the Phantom of the Opera

And it's got tiny little particles of metal in it,

So if I now put this liquid into a magnetic field,
