Pinhole DIY
SUN | May 19th, 2019 | 10am – 1pm
Taking photos with a coffee can? Impossible? Of course not! Applying the basic principles of photography, you only need a black box with a tiny hole and a light-sensitive photo paper or film to take a picture. Build your own pinhole camera and picture your personal analogueNOW! photoweekend into an analogue photo, which you will later develop. After the workshop all the resulting photos and cameras will be presented and evaluated, and after that you can take them home with you!
The empty coffee cans are provided, so there is nothing to bring.
Price: 60€/ 55€
Participants: 10

Cyanotype
SUN | May 19th, 2019 | 2pm – 5pm
Cyanotype is an old analogue photo printing technique developed in 1842. Instead of silver grains – as in the classical black/white-photography – one develops very stable pigments in prussian blue (or berlin blue). Also: one only needs water for the fixation and the chemicals are in most concentrations nontoxic for the environment and yourself. So you can completely focus on the artistic process.
In 3 exciting hours you will learn this creative technique and will print your own photos on different papers. Once printed the pictures can be toned with coffee or tea. Your pictures will appear in a different light and you will not only take your artwork, but also a lot of knowledge about alternative photography.
Price: 60€/ 55€
