We do run a lot of initiatives, Stay on top of things! As a scientist working on art examination, I was always aiming at materials characterization both in my practice as in my knowledge background, so I guess it is all around in other educational institutions. Such as chemists, physicists, geologists starting this carrier. Though,
I posted already on the use of a USB microscope to identify the oldest manual printing methods, relief, and intaglio. I now look with my USB microscope at some modern monochrome printing methods to highlights some of their characterizing features. As usual, I don’t discuss the actual printing methods but just how to identify them.
Since I launched the blog I’ve been asked for hints and recommendations from people interested in Technical Imaging of Art, which means multispectral imaging and the other photographic techniques such as RTI. I’ve been happy to provide as much support I could by emails and Skype calls. Though, I found out some professionals, collectors and
Arduino makes electronics easy for everybody! It is both hardware (a circuit board) and software (a programming environment). ARDUINO allows anybody – just by learning a simplified programming language – to connect electronics and electrical devices together and give them instructions. Your PC, lamps, sensors, ..it’s just up to your creativity. As defined in the developers’ site “Arduino
Just published on e-Conservation Magazine, vol 25, “A Practical Guide to Panoramic Multispectral Imaging”. I’ve been posting on panoramic infrared reflectography and panoramic multispectral imaging since October 2012. In this paper on e-conservation magazine I give much more details. I like e-conservation Magazine, their mission and their style. I appreciate also the editorials of Rui
