His multi-perspective images come from reality, a true photographic image not from inside a computer. To date, lenticular has been used primarily for winking-eye-type animations and cut-up, stacked images created with computer software. Years ago, there were multi-lens film cameras but their fixed (and low quality) lenses limited the quality and precise alignment required for accurate what you see in real life recreation.
