Chemical processes behind all major photographic methods are explored in this course. These processes include: daguerreotypes, black-and-white, color, non-silver, image making using alternative materials such as gum dichromate, holography, and xerography. Science of additive and subtractive color mixing is also explored. Laboratory experimentation constitutes significant part of course.
