I thought it was a real photo
No it's fan art.

 
Interesting. From the snippet that was posted it looked like a real photo zoomed in.

And imagine those diagonal ailerons as vanes.
Interesting idea, however if I understand correctly, in you scheme the control surface seems to be in the middle of the plane, and no such device is visible on the J-36. What seens to be going on imo, is they redirect the leading edgewise airflow/vortices to the side by opening those angled splitter plates

I have never written what you intend me to say here. You are misunderstanding me.
On the diagram you showed, the control surface is labeled VBL (if I read it correctly), which modifies how the vortex develops over the aft section of the wing.

Apologies if I misread what you meant, but in that case, can you explain how the scheme you mentioned works?

See those pictures as illustrations only for the vortex path. They are not exactly related to our discussion but part of the research literature on Delta wings.
Here VBL stands for Vortex Breakdown

It would be interesting if some program could stabilize the image so the movements of the controle surfaces could be analyzed.

Close enough.
