The images are typical night city wanderings and exhibit Yokota’s signature experimental processing techniques whilst also demonstrating unconventional shooting methods like re-appropriating thermographic and infrared cameras and rendering the images onto analog film. But overall Yokota’s experiments with extremely low-resolution cameras brings the concept of classical photography to its limits and revises the question of what photography should be. This book is produced as 2nd invited artist with Hiroshi Takizawa and Yoshi Kametani for "Berlin Residency Programme" by Kominek Books.
