BOW: A bit more work

  • I may have secured a way to create an image of film stock (or at any rate a tiny bit of the silver halide crystals) at extremely high magnification on a scanning electron microscope (SEM). This is not as high/deep as a scanning tunnelling microscope but nevertheless exciting. See the difference here. Quoted from the linked article – ‘The scanning tunneling microscope (STM) differs significantly from the SEM. It is capable of imaging objects at ten times the lateral resolution, to 0.1 nanometer. This is well down into the quantum realm.’ I am excited about this and will keep looking to see if it would be possible to look at the atomic level too. If this does happen the images will be for a later iteration as I must wait until half-term to get it sorted.
  • I keep trying to make time to take more images (with my usual bashed up old canon) and really need to  – I may well have a bit of time tomorrow but I don’t yet have the objects I have been trying to gather, so I will use the time to reshoot some of the things I shot the other day (see notes in PDF below  – but needs opening up in Adobe, so see screenshot).
  • I played around a bit with the images I took last week and the text. There are notes beside images, but basically, I need to reshoot, shoot more, work on the writing, make the Processing files I’ve been considering and pull an edit together in the next ten days or so  – plus print something because I can take it along to a study visit this weekend.  And finish off the Part 3 coursework (which won’t take long but needs doing) What a lot to do.

  • Oh yes, for now, a working title but perhaps it will stick – not sure of the subtitle but the main one seems to encapsulate the project and has a multitude of relevant meanings. Cuttings: manifesto for a digitised life

Some screenshots of combinations I liked when playing around with versions last night.
