And this would be some sort of cross-processing in a traditional darkroom?
I am, therefore I create.......

lol@jordy... so yea, whats the secret?Artax posted Mon, 10 March 2003 at 5:30 AM
simple simple... Made in direct sunlight... A way to develop Polaroids. I shot these using a Mamiya 645s Medium format camera (soon to be replaced with a Hasselbladt 500c) with a Polaroid Back. Take the Polaroid from the camera, let elapse 1.5/2 minutes and then open the polaroid. Trash the photography itself and keep the emulsion. Press it with a tin can on a piece of paper (watercolour paper is the best, but almost any paper should work) and tadaaaaaaaahn you have this. Ok. this shot is somewhat crappy, but using bigger polaroids or using better paper than the one i've used here and playing with the emulsion will lead to interesting results.

Damn, yeah - remember reading about that in a book. Interesting effects can also be gained from using a spoon or similar objects and puching the emulsion around while it's still Gooey. (Technical Term). (",)

yeah... but works better on standard polaroids (the ones with emulsion IN the photo... dunno the exact name... but are the most common type), there's a girl from Rimini (near where i live) that has recently published a book of polaroids shooted using this technique (not mine) in which she "draws" lines on the "fresh" polaroid with a inkless pen. results are interesting.
