More cameraless exposures of fireflies. A few months ago, we were fortunate to spend time together instead of remotely. We capped it off by returning to one of our early collaborative projects, started in the mid-90's. A firefly was gently collected and taken into a darkroom. 'Blinky' was placed into a cigar box that had a piece of 4x5 sheet film inside. It did its thing by pulsing bioluminescent light directly onto the film emulsion. You can even see its legs. Basically a photogram; no lens was used. When we felt it did enough, the film was removed. Afterwards, we thanked Blinky and let that bug go free... 2022 #fireflies #lenslessphotography #experimentalphotography #photograms #cameralessphotography #largeformatphotography #naturephotography #lightningbugs #firefly #analogphotography #abstractphotography #bioluminescent #abstractfilmphotography #abstractart #alternativephotography #contemporaryphotography #luciferase #collaborativeart #naturalworld #experimentalfilm #glowworm #outdoorphotography #luciernaga #bioluminescence #alternativeprocesses #collaborativephotography #bioluminiscencia #insectphotography #bichitosdeluz #glowinthedark https://www.instagram.com/p/CiQgwiNpP07/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Early summer fireflies for a late summer weekend. A few months ago, we were fortunate to spend time together instead of remotely. We capped it off by returning to one of our early collaborative projects. A firefly was collected and taken into a darkroom. 'Blinky' was placed into a cigar box that had a piece of 4x5 sheet film inside. It did its thing by pulsing bioluminescent light directly onto the film emulsion. Basically a photogram; no lens or camera was used. When we felt it did enough, the film was removed. Afterwards, we thanked Blinky and let that bug go free... 2022 #fireflies #lenslessphotography #experimentalphotography #photogram #cameralessphotography #largeformatphotography #naturephotography #lightningbugs #firefly #analogphotography #abstractphotography #bioluminescent #abstractfilmphotography #abstractart #alternativephotography #contemporaryphotography #contemporaryart #collaborativeart #experimentalart #naturalworld #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #outdoorphotography #photography #bioluminescence #collaborativephotography #bioluminiscencia #insectphotography #bichitosdeluz #glowinthedark https://www.instagram.com/p/CiDxMc8pY6S/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Photogram of fireflies that were temporarily captured and placed on 4x5 sheet film. No lens was used. No fireflies were harmed. Bioluminescent light exposure directly onto film...at their discretion. Taken this past summer; our most recent meet up. #fireflies #lenslessphotography #experimentalphotography #photogram #cameralessphotography #largeformatphotography #naturephotography #lightningbugs #firefly #analogphotography #abstractphotography #bioluminescent #abstractfilmphotography #abstractart #alternativephotography #contemporaryphotography #contemporaryart #collaborativeart #experimentalart #naturalworld #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #outdoorphotography #photography #bioluminescence #collaborativephotography #bioluminiscencia #insectphotography #landartcollective #glowinthedark https://www.instagram.com/mcmahon.salvador/p/CXWhjwJlAeB/?utm_medium=tumblr

A roll of medium format film was shot somewhere in New Mexico. It was wrapped in tinfoil that had been poked with holes. The package was sent in the mail. The recipient developed it. #newmexicophotography #desertphotography #doubleexposurephotography #cactusphotography #analogfilm #panoramicphotography #lightleaks #starfield #correspondenceart #mailart #collaborativeart #collaborativeproject #generativeart #experimentalphotography #experimentalfilm #120film #mediumformatfilm #longexposurephotography #multipleexposurephotography #abstractfilmphotography #angels #burnmagazine #colorfilmphotography #constellation #c41 #cosmic #fotografiaexperimental #framesmag #galactic #telepathy https://www.instagram.com/p/CLvYl6insbh/?igshid=1m1ydk6ogttwl

After a 35mm roll was shot, it was mailed. The recipient relentlessly drilled through then developed it.

B&W 4x5 sheet film was wrapped, along with feathers and other ephemera, in tinfoil that had been poked with holes. It was mailed. While in transit, the package leaked light. Maybe too much.

Someone reported this post from the past summer as promoting self-harm, so Instagram took it down. It absolutely does not promote or encourage self-harm or suicide. Original post text: Fujicolor film was mailed. The recipient cut into the roll. The film was mailed back; leaking-in light while in transit. The roll was developed and then acquired the gift of sight. #mailart #correspondenceart #contemporaryphotography #contemporaryart #c41 #fujifilm #experimentalart #experimentalphotography #experimentalanimation #experimentalfilm #stare #abstractphotography #abstractfilmphotography #analogphotography #altphotoarchive #analogue_inside #alternativephotography #analogforever #abstractart #cameralessphotography #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #lenslessphotography #lightleak #longexposure #surveillance #processart #backlitphotography #abstractphotographies #orange https://www.instagram.com/p/CI-zTyWHIih/?igshid=xa4sqk68goij

A contact print of an older post with a different version of the original. 16x20 orthochromatic film was placed inside a pin-holed black bag along with leaves and mailed. While in transit, the package leaked light. The recipient developed the film. The moisture from the organic material interacted with the photo emulsion. #leaves #mailart #experimentalphotography #lenslessphotography #photogram  #xray #abstractphotography #largeformatphotography #cameralessphotography #abstractart #altphotoarchive #alternativephotography #abstractfilmphotography #analogphotography #blackandwhitephotography #contemporaryphotography #contemporaryart #correspondenceart #experimentalart #galaxy #handdeveloped #kodak #longexposure #lightleak #negative #oblivionmagazine #pinholephotography #space #analogue_inside #kirlianphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CERu8DzDuCT/?igshid=1lxxxef179cn9
