TRAVELING PORTFOLIO PROJECT

[David A. Goldfarb]

Glad to see we're moving again. Jorge, you're after Nige. The next five are:

Nige
Jorge Gasteazoro
Chris Glanton
Aggie
Bmac
Tom Sauerwein

Check the address list for updates. I'll be adding names of new people and removing those who ask to sit out next round when it gets back to New York.

Does anyone know if Chris is still participating? He hasn't posted since January.

Are there any open spots in the portfolio for a new member or enough interest to start another one? I would like to join. I have a number of prints to pick from to add right now and should have my alt process lab up in about a month to start making new prints.

[Aggie]

He's still around. In fact i plan to see him on Wednesday. He has been on a couple oc nice vacations recently.

[bmac]

excellent, tell him to get his butt back here

[Aggie]

Will do. Maybe we should get together the apuggers in the bay area so everyone can see the portfolio when it arrives. Someplace more central to all of us if there is such a place. I'm too far east. Michael is to far north. and you are one of those dang southerners. Maybe a good place in the city.

[Nige]

Who is next?

YOU!

Jeremy (and anyone else who is interested)--Right now there are 21 on the list for this round, and the portfolio can hold about 20-22 prints, which is a good number if we want to keep the travel time under a year and 21 leaves a little buffer space to account for overlap of new people coming in and others going out. For the next round there is one going off and one coming in, and one on the waiting list and I can add you to the waiting list as well.

I think that if the waiting list gets up to five or six, it would make sense to split the portfolio into two groups and start a second one. If anyone wants to be added to the waiting list, please send me a PM.

Meanwhile, if you're doing alt process, I assume you're shooting large format, so you might want to check out the f:32 forum at:

http://www.f32.net/cgi-local/discus/discus.cgi

Which also has a "Travelling Exhibition" as they call it (the Brits put two l's in traveling) that only has about 8 participants (including Ole and myself) and room for more. Since they want to be able to include bigger prints, they ship them unmounted in a tube. The f:32 portfolio is only for large format work. There's no reason you couldn't participate in that one and then join the APUG Traveling Portfolio as soon as there's space.

YOU!

You mean I have to go out and take pictures.....??

[Nige]

no, but you might have to print one or dig one out of your archives!
