Lost Through Display, begins as a short film, the film plays on a screen where a panorama is taken using an iPhone X to stitch the scenes together, creating the photograph. This is what transforms the video into 
a static image.

All the digital manipulation is happening at the start of the capture. The forms and areas initially filmed go through a multitude of digital captures that they are removed even further from reality, through digital means. The iPhone camera captures the image on a digital sensor, where it then stitches that code together to create a panorama. A glitched final image, with scenes finishing with jagged edges into blackness, or immediately continued into another image. The action and nature of the image only amplify the artificialness that comes with the digital capture. 

The images propose a question what truth do digital images hold? The code of the images is, in fact, true, though the depiction is far from it.
