Oldfield Filter
The Oldfield Filter is based on a valuable scientific tool called a diffraction grating. The 35mm Oldfield Filter is made up of hundreds of thousands of lines (or slits) through which full spectrum white light is split into its individual frequency components in the form of spectrum colours.
In astronomy, spectroscopy, chemical and engineering sciences one finds different forms and calibrations of gratings are used. The Oldfield Filter however has been adapted to be used in terrestrial photography in front of an ordinary camera and/or mobile phone lens etc.
One theory for some of the unusual image formations that can be obtained using the filter could be the possibility that photons are bringing in information from other dimensions and realities?
One possible explanation is connected to the 'double-slit experiment' with light in physics where coherent photons/lasers are passed through two separate parallel slits. A photographic plate or CCD detector plate is used to record the path of the photons on the other side of the slits.
You would have expected to have detected the photons only in two places opposite the slit exits, however photons were also detected in the central section of the detector plate. This was thought to be due to an interference effect produced by two sets of photons passing through at the same time. However, even when photons were sent singly (one at a time) through only one slit at a time, exposed pattern interference was still found in the central section of the detector.
This experiment has always presented a mystery concerning the behaviour of photons and a theory was formulated that photons had a dual or multi-dimensional existence enabling them to occupy more than one space at one time and/or simultaneously in other dimensions and multi-verse realities.
When photons pass through our experimental Oldfield Filter they pass through many thousands of slits and in favourable circumstances and conditions in theory there may be a good chance of picking up the coherent effects of these photons as they interact with other possible multi-dimensional realities.
