Opis

"Similarities and differences" is the dance we do as professionals in the visual arts. As students we learned about photography from the inside out. Professors Arnold, White, Todd, Zakia, Shoemaker, Rickmers, Stroebel, Smith, and many more drummed the science and mechanics of photography into our heads during lectures and labs. These men formed the structural foundation that made RIT the bell weather of photographic education. The flood of information about the medium laid the groundwork for the professional careers we chose to follow. The scope of those careers is evidenced in the backgrounds of the 14 individuals presented here. As the tsunami of change from silver based imaging to the pixel based systems overtook us, we were faced with analyzing the "similarities and differences" between the two and applying these changes to our work. Some work stayed the same, only the camera and substrate changed, while others took a more radical approach, using the new technology in ways never dreamed of in 1964.
