I fully agree. I bought the catalogue for my library - a bargain at $25.

Loosely related via the topics of San Francisco and
alternative processes, there's a terrific showing
of a collection currently underway at SFMOMA.

http://www.sfmoma.org/exhibitions/exhib_detail.asp?id=186

Processes for works displayed include Daguerrotype,
salt print, ambrotype, tintype, platinum/palladium,
and albumen.

Muybridge that appears very pink (right thumbnail below the photo of
Muybirdge) - you need to take the link to Muybridge from the left nav bar on
the main page? Have any of you gone to see this exhibit?

long listing describing the old as well as new process names. They don't
have diginegs listed (under Negatives Classification) so I guess that
process isn't history yet!! Sniles and Cheers! Judy
