http://darkroomers.blogspot.com/2008/08/let-them-eat-cake-cesarean-art.html

Friday, August 01, 2008. Let Them Eat Cake: Cesarean Art. I've been working for the past few years at finding a way to express my feelings about my daughter's birth via unplanned, emergency C-section. I went through many different experiments that just haven't worked and aren't worth showing or talking about. But then one night, I was watching Ace of Cakes. And Duff said this:. Making a cake for someone is a very intimate thing to do. You're taking their joy and making it into a tangible object.". Many p...

Darkroomers: New Thoughts on Creative Space

http://darkroomers.blogspot.com/2008/07/new-thoughts-on-creative-space.html

Tuesday, July 22, 2008. New Thoughts on Creative Space. I spent a recent weekend in Houston working on ambrotypes with friends. And learned that my alma mater (the San Francisco Art Institute. Has all but shut down their color darkrooms. At Fotofest this year, I found out that the Photographic Center Northwest. For me to print digitally.

Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Ambrotype How-To: Converting a 4x5 Film Back. I've been slowly gathering the supplies that I need to make ambrotypes. I have a nice little view camera but had to modify this 4x5 back to fit the glass plates. It's harder than you think. We used some clamps to hold it to a piece of wood to make the sawing easier. You can see that it isn't cut very straight. We used a file to smooth the metal edges. Posted by Jeremiah McNichols. Wednesday, July 23, 2008. My 4x5 view camera. Has all...

Darkroomers: The Status of Our Darkroom

http://darkroomers.blogspot.com/2008/05/status-of-our-darkroom.html

Thursday, May 08, 2008. The Status of Our Darkroom. I've been avoiding writing this post since I got a comment from Nathan at the University of Washington a few days ago. I've made zero progress on my darkroom. My processor sits, still, taunting me on my porch. Rental darkrooms close their doors and further limit my options. And so for the time being, a name change is in order for this blog. "Darkroomers: Building An Analog Color Darkroom" will be just "Darkroomers." I'll update it with links I f...
