How to Invent Your Own Photography Process
0 likes2,613 views
This document provides guidance for students on inventing their own photography processes. It recommends learning the basics without a camera, studying pioneers like Fox Talbot and Daguerre, and understanding both historical and modern alternative processes. Students are encouraged to read books on the topic, explore online resources, consider necessary materials like light-sensitive agents and preservatives, and ultimately invent and name their own process to teach others. The goal is for students to think creatively and connect their invented process conceptually.
