Lightpainting ('dyeing with light'), also called luminography, is a technique in photography and has two applications. By using a long exposure time one can capture light traces with a moving light source or illuminate an object from multiple angles. Similar effects can also be achieved by moving the camera itself instead of the light source during the exposure time.
The first documented lightpainting dates from 1889 and is mentioned by the makers Étienne-Jules Marey and Georges Demeny "Pathological Walk From in Front". Later, in 1914, Frank Gilbreth and his wife Lillian Moller Gilbreth created a lightpainting by lightly attaching it to workers and thus recording their movements. The first known art photographer to use the technique was Man Ray, who made his series "Space Writing" in 1935. Another well-known photographer was Barbara Morgan, who published her lightpaintings from 1940 onwards.
