I spend more than half my year teaching and wanted to find a solution to "the keeping it alive" band wagon, which doesn't make sense. year one i built a darkroom for professionals to use. Year two began an annual showcase and publication of their work in central london and tour it to universities. </span><div style="font-family: '.HelveticaNeueUI';"><br></div><div style="font-family: '.HelveticaNeueUI';">Photography is photography. Film, digital. Print or on screen. A carrot if it will work. What ever gets you there. But getting there with film and print is pricey and Its not as accessible so Nld (north London Darkroom) experimented with Punktum, free one day workshop and we crowd funded our show! £4000 raised, talks, events and more at universities, it paid off and was great to do. Thanks pledgers! </div><div style="font-family: '.HelveticaNeueUI';"><br></div><div style="font-family: '.HelveticaNeueUI';">Summer 2014, i need to make work again, time to make pictures. NLD is good and the next show will be easier and bigger! Things are looking good for the medium.

Something to eat late, whilst sat on the harbour wall, We discussed how we would show the work we had bought with us. Andrews first film 'Klippity Klopp' and my autobiographical and self investigative photos, a selection of eight hang the walls. Four Vandyke prints, line the wall outside of the space.<br />My camera temporarilly dominates the corner of the space, waiting to be used to make the new work in the town, a link to the machine the glass plate negatives I will make and display and the prints that adorn the walls.Darkvan.http://www.blogger.com/profile/04015141629216525870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2397326508281643719.post-74998887086741712972010-06-21T12:56:00.000+01:002010-06-24T12:07:29.363+01:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"></a><a onblur="try href=" com="" _s2d8ctr2xci="" hlqi="" aaaaaaaaal4="" kh8vrjpn4ps="" s1600="" src=""><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 280px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNfp-2L2sr79WnG27FVf6tKYqmAEMG2QH-GeliigPAz3zmy0TgZUUl1agWjf2M9km9SH37Bsy4fEeLqDNxAHccBWkgYI4Nl553kAYvO05Silv-f5_dOpqvhhXSD0NfYMOuMrxebtJlD_Lf/s400/Affiche-Festival-2010.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485199810711989506" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try href=" com="" _s2d8ctr2xci="" hlqi="" aaaaaaaaal4="" kh8vrjpn4ps="" s1600="" src=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"></span></span></span></a><a href="http://www.festival-larochelle.org/">Festival Film La Rochelle</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div> <img style="text-decoration: underline;display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px; " src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk33odC4xT1g95P5NI5QirB36Z9H-CxR05ifAMmOM4gZRmdt2zLl5sa-jDIVX8Ka-B9EvBpynTt7suR4ZAz_U8-s0t4DzHV9Cs2jXXX6w0WhiIPFoL6QhdNq356AzvI1ucnaTICX2W2KDy/s400/_DSC0483.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5485199144798740242" /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.sebastianedge.co.uk/">Sebastian and his camera</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 332px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpXR_3_PJmZAmpi1ekYLvBavcCpf8lm35jFkjmSZBIv2xzCH2jTqfLtSsgRR8GdfxJdsQ5g-iOCIN0GLJ-9837vA_RcE6XpRTm5tvsVeNF7fP72tg9hG7W0ZQIGCnPpxe55JQmMGcssFkO/s400/Andrew+Kotting+and+Eden+Kotting+copy.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5486292806287073026" /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://sebastianedge.blogspot.com/2009/11/kottings.html">Andrew and Eden Kotting</a></div></div><div>La Rochelle</div><div>I leave in under a week, nearly ready for the long trip to La Rochelle, my Darkvan, loaded with 20 plates, to make new work of the people and there stories in the town. I hope to be able to engage and meet with the people of the town during its Film Festival. and form a portrait of the town in my own unique way of going about photography. a tangled web of self construction, elaborate over sized glass plate negatives, and leaving the sitter with a feeling of 'what just happened to me?'</div><div><br /></div><div>I'll be with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Kötting">Andrew Kotting</a>, making the trip down through France, he is Artist in residence at <a href="http://www.centre-intermondes.com/Site/Accueil.html">Center Intermondes</a>. With Andrew I will be making a document of the people and the way we engage with them, it will be interesting, unpacking, re packing the camera, cleaning glass, pouring chemistry, my hands will be black with Silver as it stains the skin. And i will point the camera at the people, though the people will also possibly point at the camera? </div><div>Andrew and I will enlist the people to engage with the camera, the Darkvan and ourselves as we attempt to make a picture of the people, lots of people we hope!</div><div><br /></div><div>Gloria in Transit, will be journaling all our experiences, interviewing, gathering there stories. standing back form it all as the mad Hoi poloi and Klippity Klopp, or rather Edgeland and Tragada dada plays out its story amongst the town.</div><div><br /></div><div>2nd July 2010 - 11th July 2010</div><div><br /></div><div>At the Center Intermondes I will be showing work from my archive, a myriad of stories. of people i have met along the way. </div><div>Two lightboxes will be in the space to showing two of the giant glass plate negatives from the day before.
