Over on the luminous-landscape <http://luminous-landscape.com/> they sell the Video Journal, a DVD "magazine".
One of the segments on issue 11 that I found most interesting was an interview with Ctein. He made a statement that every technological advance in printing had brought improvements in some area, but each brought a degradation in image quality. He said digital printing was the first advance that also improved image quality. It was very interesting, in another segment he demonstrated making a dye transfer print. I'd read about this technique before, but until I saw it done I didn't really grasp just how involved it really is. He stated that the materials are no longer made, and that he has enough stockpiled to do a certain number of prints. After that, it is no more. For me, that segment was worth the price of the DVD. See you later, gs
