The view on the abandoned factory gets “developed” by the sights of individuals in the scene. So what ever has been seen by somebody in the farme, becomes visible to us as well.

The space of an abandoned factory was recorded from the perspective of an surveillance camera. The recorded visual material is being stored in the image itself, so that the guards, passing by with the flashlights, slowly reveal the space by illuminating it. And in this case, every piece of information has a two minutes buffer, so every illuminated surface dissapears after that period of time.
