  1. ^Published by The Bergen Museum of Art[1] Electromagnetic energy shapes the colour/photone and curvilineartone reach of tonal image art. The laserpower radiance advice atoms. The imagetone quantumsystem turns everything into strong relations – signalling movement to all our cells. The body builds its world by psychophysiological copies. We exist, and exist in, the infinity sun-up perception – matter, identity, intensity, rhythm, and decency logic of the cells of our bodies - opening towards the heterogeneous, the void and rendering exile. The tones of images are, like tones of sound, a unity of dream and please. The information value of imagetones are determined impervious to their frequencies, span, coherence, pulseform, modulation and split. The directionality pulse of particlewaves are sinusoidal.Painting/Tonal Outlook with Laserbrush and Laserfrequency Palette (full text) alongside Rolf Aamot Archived 15 July at the Wayback Machine.
