The production history of these images is documented in every
detail in the book: Joseph Nalven and JD Jarvis, „Going Digital:The
Practice and Vision of Digital Artists”, Boston 2005, Thomson Course
Technology PTR, ISBN 1-59200-918-2 For all 17 artists in the book
three „seed images“ were the common starting point and this was the
only photo material allowed to use. How many images, with which
methods or other own materials the artists would make, was completely
up to them. This freedom, skipping any “thematic” demand made my
participation possible, though I was rather skeptical at first. „The
Future of the Past“ is based on all three photos and is primarily a
digital collage.
