James Browning Jim is well-known to many of us for his work with dye transfer materials - both emulsions and coating technology. Jim's example of history rescue into the public forum was the inspiration for The Light Farm. To learn more about Jim and his work, please visit www.dyetransfer.org, a wealth of information and inspiration. |

Bill Winkler "I began studying photography, and purchased my first SLR (a Pentax K1000),
at the age of 45. Fortunately, this was in 1993 and the 'Digital Revolution' had just started
crying for Mother's Milk. So, I received an excellent foundation in traditional Black&White Photography.
Shortly after taking my first course in Color Photography I saw my first Large Format Color Transparency,
and became obsessed with everything transparent. I did a one semester Independent Studies
course in Color Separations, shortly before taking a workshop in Platinum Palladium Printing. The next ten years, I dedicated to working out a method for printing Pt/Pd/Au on glass. I now have a system for reliably printing these metal images on glass, and (if desired)
adding color using a variation of the Gum Dichromate method. I have entered the world of emulsion
making because I hate being dependent on commercial film. Also, I wish to do Dye Transfers and Matrix Film
is no longer commercial. Since all of my work involves Color Separation, I must make Panchromatic emulsions.
I am currently restoring two 1930-1940 tri-color 'one-shot' cameras. I am a Native New Yorker, but have lived in California since 1974. I have always worked in some field of
research, first in Cell Membrane function, then in industrial coatings."
