The Blonde in the Machine: Mellow 23/35

The Blonde in the Machine: Mellow 23/35

Of all my photo series, I think this one has the coolest title. I think it could be the title of a movie. I can't help but think of Pierre Richard in The Tall Blonde with the Black Shoe, although my series has nothing to do with it. Well, at least model Zu is also tall and blonde.

I always try to stimulate the imagination with my pictures. I want to tell stories or even better: to start a movie in your head without having to tell too much. That's where I see my challenge.

When the topic of virtual reality appeared in the media, I immediately had this idea. And I was feverishly hoping that no other photographer from my genre would come out with such a photo series before my book was published.

This topic is just crying out to be photographed. And then Apple even came around the corner with its VR glasses. I really crossed both fingers that no one would publish something similar before me. And it worked.

Strapping on those VR goggles is like diving headfirst into a dreamland where anything goes. Once those bad boys are on, it's like the real world disappears, and you're off on a ride through the imagination. You can basically live out your wildest dreams. Wasn't that already a theme in an old Woody Allen movie?

Anyway, it's as if your brain has been given a backstage pass to a reality in which much more is happening. With every turn of your head, you dive deeper. These VR glasses are not just a piece of technology, they are a ticket to a place where reality and dreams merge in a cool way.

Things you might not know

Foot fetishism refers to a strong sexual interest in feet. It is the most common form of sexual fetishism for non-sexual objects or body parts. Although 20-30% of men may have a liking for women's feet, it remains a taboo subject.

So I would just like to invite you on a virtual journey. You can take a trip with model Zu to the "Blonde in the Machine".
