Why not keep the original negatives, scan them in and do the work in
Photoshop.... you could print negatives and then cut those up and sew them together if
you want....

partially, as that is definitely a gender cue in and of itself, but i don't

want that to be my only technique for affixing the negatives to each other.

does anybody have any experience with this kind of thing? i remember reading

in the James book about a photographer who, towards the end of his career,

took the tons of negatives that he had over the years and did a similar
thing,

making 8x10 contact prints of negative collages. my copy of that book is back

in baltimore, so if anyone knows who that artist is, that would be a helpful

resource.

any ideas? >>
