From the nostalgia department (after all I think we all have one): How old am I? How long has it been. How shall we celebrate? Here's the announcement that brought me to alt-photo: Conservation DistList Instance: 7:65 Monday, March 14, 1994 Today's Subjects ------- -------- Banana Leaf Manuscripts Vendor problems Microfilming workshops New list Position at University of Texas Position at Carolina State University Today's Queries ------- ------- Silver cleaning reference Coatings for exhibit cases Grant for treatment of blueprints Today's Messages: ,,,,,,, Date: 14 Mar 1994 From: Walter Henry <whenry@lindy.stanford.edu> Subject: New list alt-photo-process is a mailing list for the discussion of alternative photographic processes. Alternative photographic processes traditionally have been those that do not use the main stream silver gelatin process, ie the printing paper that you buy at the photo shop. Gum Bichromate, Platinum, Carbon Dye Transfer, Cyanotype, Photogravure, Kallitype, Vandyke Brown, Color Xerox, are some processes that are currently thought of as alternative processes. The group should be free to talk on any unconventional photographic process or modification to the standard silver gelatin process. Photographers that embark on alternative processes usually have a "Do It Yourself" attitude. This discussion group caters to that interest. If you wish to join this mailing list, send the message SUB ALT-PHOTO-PROCESS Your Name where "Your Name" is your preferred name, to the list processor at listproc@vast.unsw.edu.au, and it will subscribe you and send you further information on the group (like how to post messages and use the listproc).
