Also, I don't have a monopoly on "pictures that look like this".
Adam Magyar and Jay Mark Johnson have line scan photos in fine arts as well, and they were in fact a big source of inspiration when I started out on my own line scan journey in 2017.

Seth Itow, Philomena, and Elm-chan both also have hobbyist line scan camera setups:

There are also Japanese rail fans:

And faux-line scan cameras using regular video cameras, stitching together thin chunks rather than 1 px columns:

Line scan cameras are also commonly used for machine vision in the rail industry to inspect trains for damage and detect graffiti and stuff. And conversely, line scan cameras mounted on trains are used to inspect rails and tunnels.
