Re: ink-jet cyano
How about this for the ultimate alt photo? http://onlatte.com/blog/ Forget about paper, permanence, Dmax, sharpness, and all that 20th century crap. We can print great masterpiece on transitory media of Guiness foam using inkjet technology and caramel syrup as an ink. While you have a brief moment to aprpeciate the work, you'll have to drink it soon enough or the whole point will be entirely compromised. However, when the US Treasury department starts printing money on this technology, I'm sure Wall Street will appreciate it, Neil Cavuto will go crazy, but I'd be very cautious. FYI, if you missed my previous posting of my friend John Hart making images using carbon nanotube, check this out: http://www.nanobama.com/ -- Ryuji Suzuki "Yesterday's just a memory, tomorrow is never what it's supposed to be."

What does the manipulation of chemicals in inkjet printers have to do with "Richard Benson's new book?" Perhaps I'm being a newsgroup snob, but I suspect it would make life a lot easier for somebody searching the archives a year from now if somebody posting could come up with a meaningful subject line for this new thread. > > > > --greg > > > > Keith Gerling wrote: > >> Yes and no on the image quality.
