The Digital Photography Exhibits Guestbook

I'm amazed. So much for the 'death of photography'. I'm doing an assignment on digital photography at the moment. This site has opened my eyes, and perhaps horizons.

-- nils crompton <none(hellyer college tasmania)>

We are seeking information on digital photograph for a presentation to bring this type of equipment to our institution. We are specifically looking for info on different types, costs and vendors of cameras, computers, printers, scanners, etc.

-- <jeffersonla@interlochen.k12.mi.us>

I really liked all of the work, some of my favorites include Sunshine, Awaiting the Spector and Phoenix. I also liked the fact that I could see the art from my computer screen instead of getting all gussied up and going to a "real" gallery.

-- Norberto Quintanar <kyoo@siu.edu>

Interesting mix of the solidly good and the insipid ... it was worth looking at ... which is a complement for the Net

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK. I REALLY ENJOYED SEEING THOSE PICTURES.KEEP IT UP !! RICK

-- RICHARD MILLER <RICKYM51@AOL.COM>

The "Up stairs room..." rocks, I like the way it is very personal and closed in like a thought in your head. The semetry of the three women work well but why did you use the pose the pictures in the second room after famous photographers, it seems kind of genaric?

-- Mark Warmus <worm@airmail.net>

I found the images sampled ("Aspen," "Crystal Lady," "Hot Springs Revisited,") stimulating, in their use of color and/or shape. The image of a Scotland meadow was particularly haunting, the title escapes me. Thank you for providing a forum for new dimensions in photography.

-- Mark A. Utrecht <Mark.A.Utrecht@Commerce.State.Mi.Us>

Where are the artists doing non-figurative work? Many of the pieces seem to have a neo-surrealist bent. Although I somewhat (not totally) appreciate the need to copyright one's work, however the intrusive signature and copyright at the bottom of each image turns them into commoditized advertisements. The last image (John Brooks Gray) was the one that worked best. Congratulations to the artist. It was really lovely.

-- Michael Thomas <lpierre@mcs.com>

What a fantastic collection of high res work. Very enjoyable. Thanks for making it available!

-- Mark Chamberlin <jobman@europa.com>

Very nice place, very nice pictures, Congratulations!!!

-- <memo@roxanne.nuclecu.unam.mx>

The two photographs are quite pleasant, yet visually a sure attention-getter!

-- Winston Tam <>

I think this is an exellent idea and the art is truly beutiful Rick Reed's in my opinion is the best digital photography. Thank you and i shall return in the future.

-- Mike <emstudio@keytech.com>

Dow Mitchell would have loved this medium.

-- Gary Zuercher <chroma@interramp.com>

Thank you for your display of photographs. The quality is excellent! I used to live just North of Peoria and was particulary interested to find your exhibit. Your pages are well organized and easy to view. Thanks.

-- Stephen E. Frank <sfrank@kusd.kusd.edu>

I think, that this one of the best Internetadresses of the whole Internet. Dieses Bild (Bdume+Landschaft) gefdllt mir sehr gut!

-- <HBLA Landwiedstra_e>

The exhibit is really nice. I recently had to submit a descriptive term paper in an Art class of a piece of artwork or painting. The "phoenix piece" was quite similar to my selection. Please email me back regarding updates especially if you receive this message. Thanks. Jean

-- Jean Hampton <jhampton@controller.osc.state.nc.us>

I'm new to the Net but this is the best site I've visited so far. I hope to start Digital Imaging soon as I am a very keen photographer and this site will help motivate me. Thank you

-- Dermot Lahiff <dlahiff@homenet.ie>

I do not know much about art, but let me tell you that the pictures you are showing are very pleasant to my eyes.

-- PACO <>

You have provided an exceptional service to the world of art. For non-artist art-lovers like me, you offer a very encouraging window that promises, no matter matter what the medium, a true and passionate vision can prevail. By all means, continue this series.

-- David Habercom <d-habercom@utk.edu>

Wonderful, your show makes me want to get working.

-- Goya <Goya@gnn.com.>

Thank you. I enjoyed all the work very much, though was especially impressed with the quality of the images and the way they were presented - keep it up!

-- Anonymous- New Zealand <>

Fantastic. The set up is lucid. The pix are great. You seem to be the "standard" for this sort of work on the 'Net. Thanks for your efforts. It's a joy to look at such excellent work.

-- Tucker McCravy <75115.57@compuserve.com>

Wonderful presentation. Well done. I'm so glad artists have now found a new method of displaying their talents.

just a fine piece of art welldone thanks to make me feel good at 05:00 am.....

-- behzat <>

Howard: You've done it again. This year's exhibit certainly deserves to be viewed by one and all. According to the numbers of visitors to this site you and your staff must be very proud. I have passed along you address to others at Time Inc. I'm certain they will enjoy the show as I have. Good luck. I'll be watching. Tom

-- Tom Hubbard <thubbard@edserv.timeinc.com>

Some of the work seems to be that of serious artists; other pieces are the typical rot-your-brain photoshop filter group. My main complaint is that the jpegs on the web site are TOO LARGE to view on my monitor without downloading and opening them in Photoshop!

-- <jimtuite@interport.net>

Beautiful pictures especially the Scotland tree thing

-- Stefan Blixt <dat93sbl@ludat.lth.se>

I found the exhibition exhilerating .It was very colourful and full of life .It also made a refreshing change from black and white and shows that so much can be done with a camera.Keep up the good work lads!!

-- <>

Very interesting exhibit. I now plan to enter some of my work. Hope it can look as good as your images. Nice design for a web page. Thank you!

-- <jjividen@aol.com>

I think this picture would be much better, if it would be ordinary old photography

-- Daniel Bujnow <dani@cso.co.at>

Why don't you have any dutch windmills

-- <>

I'm a student taking this in college as we speek. I'm not very impressed at what is actually shown here. There are only a few pieces that show the creativeness and potential of the digital medium. As a photography student myself taking this new and exciting tool, I would have loved to seen stronger images with more impact than what was shown. Thanks for your time. Trevor Booth

-- <BoothT@photog.fanshawec.on.ca>

Yes, modern art! Think of all the media we have and what we can create nith it for wjatever reason - reflection of society or modern interpretatiopns of the world to be restored for centuries onward. Each must make a contribution. Nice exhibit.

-- Daren Eddy <deddy@utkux.utk.edu>

Excellent presentation, a well done to the site designer and the artists. Alan Ferguson

-- <xenoworks@eyerush.com>

overall, the images produced are very obvious and trite. They seem to be overly dependent upon the affects of what the computer can produce as opposed to how the computer can add and enhance content. Like any "good" art, a solid intent and idea of where one wants to go is necessary.

-- Touli <borrowing a net site>

thank you for opening my eyes to a new form of photography .From an avid b&w print fan.

-- Patrick Whelan <pwsk@indego.ie>

This was one of the most interesting and beautifully presented art on the net that I have seen. Please continue this as art has to be presented honestly and beautifully.

-- <Douglas Broadie dbroadie@isomedia.com>

I was impressed with Alan Falk's image of Phlebus the Phoenician the most. Your gallery has been quite inspiring and I am readying my entries for 1996 gallery. You have a site that is easy to follow and it is appreciated.

-- <cleo@iquest.net>

Loose the title "Digital Photography" Your immages are what is important not the method of presentation. Lets see what you are not how you did it.

-- <Peter_F._Weishaar@mlstand.com>

My visit to dp'95 has been a true plesure and I look forward to dp'96. I would like to express my thanks to all of the digital artists that have displayed there work, for as a digital photographer, it is a great pleasure to see other artists work being displayed.

-- <>

i like your work and i would like to see some black white on the net also. i am from irving tx. its in Dallas

-- Brian Gillis <>

wonderful, i love the fact i can see what other photographers are doing.

-- epoch <s000070@wscc.edu>

I am a retired photographer. The exhibit is excellent. My how things have changed, no more dektol lines on your fingers.

-- <art@mylink.net>

fascinating! very inspiring. I hope to see you develop this site and make more creations available on-line. keep up the good work!

-- Noam <evlin@netvision.net.il>

Dears Srs. I apreciate too much the digi- tal Photografy. In my opinion is new kind of art at the end of the 20th century. Congratulation. Go ahead. Best regards Bessa

-- Iran da Costa Bessa <icbessa@bsb.nutectec,com.br>

It's nice to see what other people do! Greetings

-- Wojciech & Zbigniew Janeczek <maws@gryzmak.pdi.lodz.pl>

This was really excellent. Perhaps make one picture at a time build with some written description about the artist or comments while this is occuring. Keep it up! Mike Stasiuk

-- <>

Overall, I was very interested in the processes used and the motivation behind non-traditional methods. I am please with the presentations. There are several images that were emotionally moving considering that I was lookink at a computer screen and not the actual images. Sarah L. Donelson

The variety of artist and their work was interesting.Sunni Sims rt. 1 box 59 Geronimo,Okl.73543

-- <Sunni Sims >

Exelent exhibit. My only coment on the oveall is the lack ok consistency. You have great work and very poor one mixt toguether. Anyway you have done a great work with it. Congrats.

-- Jose A. Kuri <74173,2637>

To whom it may concern, I am a seasoned web browser and surf pretty much every gallery I can find, and i can honetly say this is one of the most spectacular and interesting ones I have come across. I am involved in a multimedia course at the Vancouver Film School (http://www.multimedia.edu) and I will surely pas this site onto them as a reference and a hot link on their page. Please check out our site as well as the school is fast becoming a rising star in multimedia training facilities. Please keep the exhibits fresh..as I will be back Sincerely, Leanna Hoskins

-- <lhoskins@direct.ca>

TASTEFUL, FRESH, MADE ME THINK , THANKS!

-- JAYMZ COLE <>

The Digital Art Gallery is just awesome! Art has certainly come a long way. I am very impressed by the images here! Thank you!

-- <>

Very nice exhibit ! I liked: Tents & Pigs and a lot of others criticism (if you are open) Troy Benet's image was self indulgent, for me. "Devour" by S.Chard, was unreadable, due to the text being out of focus. This took away from whatever this peice was about, for me.

-- Paul McTigue <mctigub@mail.firn.edu>

I really enjoyed viewing these and think each of the artists have a great eye and imagination. I especially enjoyed the images of Dan Lorber. These are very nice. Congratulations on some very nice work.

-- <Vcdc2b@ix.netcom.com>

I really enjoyed the exhibit. The display was comparable to visiting a museum or fine gallery. The documentation was adequate. I hope to see more of this and participate. Thank you.

-- Jawin C. Westover <JaWes5@aol.com>

Jane alen's work is great. "geneologies" and "el abuelo" were fantastic!!!!!!!!!

-- LLANELY MEDRANO <mmedrano@ucla.edu>

The images are compelling and this forum you present certainly has a lot of merit. Thousands at a time can view and/or comment on the work. However, I do find the images displayed annoyingly small. Aside from losing much texture and feel because of rez limitation these pics are too small to see anything clearly. Great idea though.

-- Trace <ErwinT@aol.com>

I am a photography teacher in a high school. I wish to compliment you on the images in "Digital Photography '95". I enjoyed it very much. There was an excellent range of images. Hope to see more p;rovocative work like this. Sincerely, Jack Summers

-- Jack O. Skummers <jacsom@gps.gp.k12.mi.us>

some better than others, but I would like to see more sights like this, many more. Very well put together and easy to navigate. images load fairly quickly, but if one elects to see the image larger, at least on my 15" monitor, it's too large to fit on the screen, I can only see a 1/4 portion of the image at a time. thank you, some really wonderful images in here. I teach a digital imaging class at Humboldt State University and I will use this sight as an example sight for my students.

-- michael jenner <mcj1@axe.humboldt.edu>

I found your pictures very well done and the content was nice ! I loved all of them and thanks for sharing those to all of us !!

-- <EWells8670@aol.com>

great show! I am anartist and digital scanning, film, & iris sales rep for Lincol Color, Pawtucket, RI. I would like to know more about your program and the dye sub prints offered here.

-- <wwk@gsn.net>

very interesting, the dye subprints were well executed. The subject matter was both esoteric and aunatural, well done. Thanks for using this medium for display, it allows many to enjoy who would not otherwise have a chance!!Again thanks.

-- jay <jayhn@aol.com>

good

-- <yklim@cheju.cheju.ac.kr>

Amazing. I was disappointed when I ran out of pictures to view. Thanks.

-- <bruce.thomson@hydro.on.ca>

Very interesting exibit, great use of compositing text and images in one self standing piece. Very impressive. Well worth the waiting !

-- <chriz@odyssee.net>

Great images. I liked your '94 exhibit and was pleasantly surprised to see a new '95 gallery. One thing that I would like to see next to the works, are the programs the artists used to retouch and/or enchance the pictures. Looking forwards to dig.photo.'96!

-- <92mendis@wave.scar.utoronto.ca>

a rare treat after a hard day's work. total bliss. thank you.

-- Murray Wolfe <banker@sprynet.com>

celeste I love your flowers I have just taught myself how to use photoshop and am currently creating my own gallery on the net. I will watch for your work and may ask for you to be a guest in my gallery. Sheinina

-- <sheinina@over21.com>

Great job! I will be back for 96..

-- <Frankbransen@aol.com>

nice to see a virtual gallery, i always enjoy finding interesting things while surfing in cyberspace...the works i had a look are so different but not bad ;-) (a very regional expression, that means very good). i personally really enjoy these virtual things, if they work, if they show me something new...so a small criticism to all artists who work with computers: look for new images, taht can't be produce with conventional media, you know...i work on it, too. isa german photographer, designer in love with computers...

-- isabel tenbrink <isabel.tenbrink@t-online.de>

As normal, it is in the eye of the beholder, however all were nicely done. I admired Night Orb especially. Thank you for allowing my visit. I shall return.

-- <donmac@goldrvr.island.net>

I really liked JIMMY. That's so great how you are forced to look into the image to see him. I just wanted to say that I especially enjoyed that peice. I've enjoyed this entire exibit!

-- <hes55257@dialup.websteruniv.edu>

I loved more images in this exhibit than any other on the Web. It is my choice for Best Exhibit On The Web ! Is it permissible to place these images on our personal web sites ?

-- <jfecarot@eecs.wsu.edu>

This is a great experience for me. I really enjoyed viewing the great artwork. It has stirred my desire to look into this art form myself. Some great talent here too! Thank You very Much!!!

-- Marc Curtis <MarcnGail@aol.com>

I downloaded every one of them. nuff' said Quinten,K.L.

-- <>

Thank you for looking through your gallery. The only suggestion I have to make is the amount of pictures per wall. To my opinion there are to less. For professional people it would be better to have more images per page in a smaller size. The ones we are interessed in could be enlarged afterwards. But still, this is a great medium, with a bright future in the professional circles. Please cotinue your gallery! Jos Tigges.The Netherlands

-- <jtigges@bartnl>

This was my first visit to your gallery and I thought it was exceptional. I downloaded several images to show friends. Thanks again.

-- Jerry Rieder <Mericat1@ix.netcom.com>

I find it a little disturbing that little attention to archival quality is being addressed by any of the artist shown here. As we all know wax transfers, iris inkjets and other inkjets all fade. Now matter what any publisher claims the life of one of these prints may be, those of us who have been working with inkjet tech. know that to date, there is really know archival digital reproductions other than photographic processes. I have tested many different dyes, pigments, waxes, and uv coatings along with uv glass and acid free substrates. To date, the longest anyone has gotten a dye sub, or inkjet to last without a noticable fade is 2 years. Anyone who says diffent has either not done their tests correctly, or is trying to sell you an expensive white lye. The art is super, if we could only make it last.... Sam.

-- Sam <sam@fbonline.com>

Dear Sirs, I find digital photo expo a step in the future. It makes me amazed how electronic can support photography and communicate with so distant people. In September this year I will have a photo expo in Dom omladine Belgrade and hope to promote a bit of digital photography because I believe it is something like when sound move came along. I would like to register for future expositions. Best regards, R. Mitrovic

-- <mitrovic@classroom.opennet.org>

Very interesting and visually stunning.

-- Michael Klein <kleinmic@mailserv1.ferris.edu>

I especially liked S. Chard's work. Devour reminds me ,if not in content , but in form , of a friend's work in painting called "Comerse un Cable" which roughly translated means "Eating a wire". Also "Bartlesville" is great. It gives you the feeling of reading someone's intimacies.

-- <>

Enjoyed the quality of the work presented in digital Photography '95 and the presentation format. Looking forward to viewing '96 exhibit in a few days.

-- <PRODUCER@tiac.net>

the proria art guild has no e-mail address. they should so that we artists may send them a kudo.

-- <http://ns1.win.net/korolden>

Beautiful! But I wasn't satisfied with the size of the paintings. Keep up your good work. I look forward to seeing this site very often.

-- <percymak@hknet.com>

Art is long, and time is fleeting.

-- Glenn O.Rogers <chaseman@nconline.com>

Very interesting photography! I liked "Fallen Angel" the best. It was very well done.

-- Perry Canady <pfcanady@midwest.net>

Very nice set up here folks. I'm in Aptos CA and have been working with altered photography for some 25 years now.I was inspired and impressed. Does anyone know of any sites on web where oil-painted photography is displayed? I've got lots and would love to share and get feedback? Thanks. I'll be checking inwith you again. How often does the room images change?

-- Marianne Clancy <mpfister@cats.ucsc.edu>

Some exciting work. I particularly liked Ghing-Fang Chiang. His work may be a return to de Chirico, yet he has somehow pushed it that much farther. Mike Fone Graphic Designer

Very Intresting to say the least!

-- shelly sabin <cardude@earthlink.net>

this seems like a terrific idea i wish that my school did something like this as well. if anyone reads this by friday may 3, please drop me an email and let me know what you think of photography on the net. i am doing a paper on it. thanks

-- debbie livingston <dbliving@mailbox.syr.edu>

great tool for upcoming photographers. it shows them what can be achieved

-- MARIA M <DON4T HAVE ANY!!>

Thanks very much to all of the people who put the show together. Even though I was unable to attend the show in Peoria, it looks great on the Web. It is apparent that a great deal of care and thought went into the design of the pages and the presentation of the work. As one of the artists in the show, I am very appreciative of those who who made the show possible. Tom Hyatt

A splendid site. A service to the emerging art of digital imaging. But I would verry much like to see the tech. notes on the taking and printing of images. RWC

-- Robert Campbell <flannery@redshift.com>

Great show!! I'd like to see it in real-time! I hope to create such beautiful and thought-provoking pieces myself someday. Thanks!

-- Bethany Haara <bjhaara@mtu.edu>

Was just looking over your page here. Will take some time to look thru all the interesting sections! I have a bunch of digital pictures on my home page, if you care to check it out.:) Ann http://www.kestrok.com/~zag

-- Ann <zag@kestrok.com>

Overall-a very beautiful and 'fetching' show: Specific Comments- Wall 9 Diane Fenster-'evidence' is a complex image of lovely layers and hot colors juxtaposed with a startling blue series of lines.... Her work feels familiar to me in the area of memories and how we treat them as physical organisms and as artists....we recreate the past and chase after it like an entomologist chasing butterflies with a net. And in the artist's case, it all ends up on paper and 'evidence'. Wall 7 Dena Eber - this diaphanous backdrop for the encased being in a membrane is moving, living and also trapped. Very lovely and thought-provoking. Ching-Fang Chiang - probably the most impeccably created designs-heartbreakingly balanced, but just enough dissonance. I esp. like the sense of a different world of night disappearing in the spotlight of day. Wall 6 Jay Selden -very funny piece, yet strangely beautiful and picking up on something about a Christopher Columbus falling off the edge of the earth.... Petra Karadimas - I really like the figure-ground fun here...I actually did not really see the face until second viewing...the line is dominant and really plays with the senses. Wall 5 Samantha Chard -Moths - reminds me of several 'plagues' I have experienced in my life-the solitary person and the niggling, usually invisible to others, details----the ones one carries around in the head. Devour-too powerful for comments Wall 5 Troy Bennet-Fate I am reminded of the thousand 'little deaths' of the spirit experienced when 'individual' meets the 'majority'. Wall 1 Sorry, but I think "Tug" is a gratuitous inclusion. Seems we can never get through a show without at least one pair of tits....and in this case it is the traditional 'disembodied' decapitated women, boiled down to her essence: sexual signalling. THANKS FOR THIS SHOW....I THOROUGHLY ENJOYED IT. One comment about the Web - when I clicked on individual works, I got an image so large that I had to do a lot of scrolling..... I had a better grasp of the works as small JPEG's; so perhaps in future, a doubling of the original rather than so big.

-- Susan Magnolia Hogue <hoguesm@uwec.edu>

I do very pedestrian applications of digital photography such as automatic measurement.

-- Dr. Alberto Gomez-Rivas <alberto @structures.dt.uh.edu>

I find the idea of combining digitally processed oictures with "old" photographic processes very interresting. But why (as in Dan Burkholder's "PIGEONS WITH CURLING WINDOW") does people have to use the photoshop filters so that even a child could recognise them. This makes the pictures taste "cheap", as if the maker couldn't use his own imagination to create anything new, just copy what already exists.

-- Pekka Nikrus <pnikrus@uiah.fi>

Your exbit was great! I am currently going to be starting school to learn photography. These photos were very intresting. Keep up the good works and I will be checking in often.

-- Diane <jws@westol.com>

It was great to see Dan Burkholder included in this show. I have seen much of his work, and only wish your viewers could see the fine qualilty and beauty of a original print

-- Don Ruzicka <Ruzica 95>

My husband & I were at the opening of the gallery in Peoria & we were both impressed with Dan Burkholder's work. It is an honor for me to have my work displayed alongside his and other inspiring artist's work. Sandra Givan cleo@iquest.net

I have been using a variety of imput devices including a flat-bed scanner, Cannon zap shot, and a Kodak DC40. The limititation of the lower cost digital cameras is the input max resolution. Using Photoshop Ihave been sucessful in printing good quality low resolution prints(46 dpi). I would be interested to learn if any of the paticipating artists are working with low resolution photos

-- Joe Mooney <jkmgcc@gulf.net>

Just browsing the web when I came across the Peoria site. Being an ex-Peorian now living in Oshkosh it was kind of nice to go home for a bit. Thanks.

-- Tom Huxtable <huxosh@execpc.com>

the text collages look interesting and would probably be moreso in person, but on screen (and in a bright room) they just don't work. The Berger piece is gorgeous. T

-- Titus Levi <levi@kusc.usc.edu>

nice work, though I'm sure you can watch those iris and dye sub prints disappear before your eyes as the exhibit continues. If I buy will the artist keep on sending me new prints as the old one fade away?

-- doug McGoldrick <mcgold@macc.wisc.edu>

I was exploring the net looking for photography sited, getting ideas for my own site. Much of the time I despair at what I find. I was most pleased to find pieces that were unusually nice in your exhibition. I particularly liked works by Michael Berger, Celeste Brignac, Alan Falk, Jay Seldin, Lanny Webb, and Richard van Hoesel.

-- Luke Powell <luke@sover.net>

I am amazed by the difference from year to year. Of the three, each with its separate exhibit, '94 was by far the best. The others were like so many sites full of childish manipulations and crayon colors, but 94' had quite a number of strong photographs.

-- Luke Powell <luke@sover.net>

Hello I'm very interested in being in your Guestbook. I just recently discovered this site. I.m been a photographer for about a year and I'v received so much support from the photography world. Please continue the support.I'm always interested in as much information I can receive on digital imagery and photography. So please sign me up in your Guestbook. Thanks very much.

There are a cou[ple of problems youve stumbled into with this show. One is that you can't get a sense of an artists wirk by showing a piece or two. That has been a problem for these types of shows ever since they started, group shows are very difficult to mount. Secondly, electronic media maybe shoudn't be on gallery walls, I mean isn't that the place for the traditional static art work? The place for the digital art maybe is in a book publishing domain. Then yoiu've solved the first problem at least. You could have an exhibition hall filled with complete statements of the artists work that way. You could see who was really doing significant work, for yourself and for the collective. I mean seeing a piece or two makes me think I have seen this stuff before, oh yeah, looks like art ought to look like. That doesn't get me anywhere, starts to look like a bunck of hobbyists, like when they get tired of their computer art that they will go onto something else like hang gliding. s! o you've fallen into some problem areas, don't worry no one has really solved them , and even the "big museums" make the same and even more problematic mistakes. And even so, in the end, raising this set of issues might be a very important thing to do in the context of people's visits to your (problematic) show.ilooktdevolvedfor a t

Superb! As a beginner in Photoshop, I find inspiration. Kudos also to your web designer. The use of frames and the general layout are marvelous.

-- David Adair <dadair@scsn.net>

Unique renderings with some fantistic computer tools. I writing it is said that truth is stranger than fiction, in art I do not believe that a statement like that could hold water. Very interesting.

-- Patrick L. Boland <pboland@interaccess.com>

Enjoyed the show and I'm glad to see digital photography available to so many people. Keep up the good work.

j have seen your '95 walls and they are very nice!!! This is a realy beautifull site. Thank you from italy.

-- <r.boffa@area.com>

As a photographer and collector, I am interested in knowing more about the various non-traditional print mediums these artists are using. What the hell is a rainbow print and how stable are ink jet prints? If I purchase these images, how long can I expect them to last? Also, is anyone selling digital examples of their work? Suggest you add technical information about the output-images that are for sale. Thanks. -- Joe

-- Joe Bruha <bruhaj@msn.com>

Could there be a space for comments adjacent to each image? Image makers may want to scan responses to their work. We've all wanted to be "a fly on the wall" at sometime.

Nice exhibit. Would have loved to seen this in person. I really like the layout of the pages. Well done, intuitive, and easy to view.

-- Brian Shurley <bshurley@glassorchid.com>

interesting work overall, but somehow lacks the necessary imagination required to be inspiring. This of course may well be the fault of the selectors. As in conventional photography, judges/selectors can stifle origionality.

-- John Stanford <ca04@ rapid.co.uk>

They look great. This is the first time I enter an exhibition like this. Thanks

The Digital photography'96 is No.1 exibit on the word.

-- Lucas Clavijo Erazo <clavio@tba.com.br>

As a student of digital photography, it pleases me to see artists' work displayed in such a format. I notice that many of the physical manifestations of these digital works are iris or dye sub prints, pointing to the difficulty and expense of getting digital stuff printed. ( I just went through it in a show I installed) this underlines the importance of such a digitally oriented space. I am excited that this space is here.

As computers are obviously becoming the preferred medium of the general populous for the nearing century, it is only natural, expected, and just that ALL forms of fine art be encouraged to experiment with their use. As an "experienced novice" photograhper, I applaud the efforts of all those that support the art in any media. "If we continue to try, maybe someone will understand."-my high school art teacher.

Isn't it surprising how digital photography seems to underline the tools more than making interresting pictures. "Technology is nothing more than a process, not an end in itself". Boring!

-- Pekka Nikrus <pnikrus@uiah.fi>

very interesting. I like the artist's notes. Would like the option of viewing larger images as the thumbnails you offer are too small to get any idea of the intended canvas, and the "detailed" image is just a large thumbnail(to me anyway.) Perhaps if there was a selection of image sizes available, some of the works are worth waiting for.
