The image, according to Laura Mark’s “Enfolding-Unfolding Aesthetics”, may be enfolded to reveal its layer of information. This layer comes to essence when the image is subject to any digital processing.

This digital image-making project involved some programming methods to perform a pixel translation of some stills that were taken from the ‘Phyllotaxis’ film projection.

The translation is from the standard red-green-blue (RGB) pixel composition into a binary (black and white) code composition. The binary de-coding process is composed of '0' and '1' values, thus, revealing the ‘information layer’.
