Artists working with early/experimental photographic processes –

• Botanical cyanotypes – Anna Atkins – 1833 – first book of photographs ever – recording shapes and forms
• Rayograph – Man Ray – photogram – surrealist movement, Dada etc. – removes dimension – deals w/shadowms
• Solarising – exposing to light while developing – glows
• Laslo Moholy-Nagy – photogram – bauhau – integrating design and industry ‘the salvation of photography comes from the experiment
• Christian Marclay – recreating sound – guns and roses, sonic youth, and two mix tapes 2008 – (also look up ‘the clock’)
• Impermanent image
• Lumen prints – Jerry Burchfield – Primal Images (2004) – doesn’t use developer – just uses moisture & heat from plant – colour goes onto black and white paper
• Christine Elfman – Even Amaranth (anthrotypes)
• Bihn Dahn – chlorophyll prints – printed on leaves – space around negative gets bleached out
