Course Description:
Chemical safety and mixing techniques for 19th century photography in the 21st Century.
This class will go over practical safety measures when mixing, storing and trying not to inhale or ignite various chemicals. We will answer question’s like: Can I mix this type of acid with this type of chemical? Is it safe to store this in a hot darkroom? How does humidity effect the longevity of this dry chemical? Can I pour this down the drain? This class will demonstrate how to mix Cyanotypes, Vandykes, Albumen, Salt Printing, Wet Plate Collodion, Kallitypes, Platinum and Palladium and its many developers. Every student will be able to purchase a “kit” of their choice at a special discounted rate, and come away with a safety plan for their own darkroom.
