​

1. Retinoblastoma is a sensory-photographic experience that does not aim to produce images on physical support or in digital memory that can be shared or accessed later.
    

2. An indoor/enclosed idle space must be sealed so that external light does not shine through.
    

3. Each participant must have a camera equipped with a flash in their hands. Your only way to see will be through the flash firing of the cameras,  revealing the environment in which the participant is inserted.
    

4. Each flash provides the participant with the perception of a fraction of the space that is immediately translated into individual memory. This causes a construction in each individual that is related to the effect caused by the photograph.
    

5. The experience of each participant is a fundamental part of the experience of others.
    

6. The search for understanding space ends up transforming it incessantly.
    

7. Space can be occupied by objects and facilities.
    

8. Guest artists can activate the space with a performance.
    

9. The sound treatment can be done by guest musicians, with the only guideline to play at high volume.
    

10. All photos taken during the experience are voluntarily given to the organizers after the event and deleted from the participants' devices.
     

11. All registered photographs will be collected and deleted without ever being seen.
