Digital BW, The Print

AIPAD would be a prime choice to help understand these issues since the
number of prints coming from this new image stream is increasing. Digital
B&W images will benefit greatly in from Mark's research, I am afraid he hit
it on the head when he mentioned the new avenue of expression; projected
images. The print industry is in decline due to that.

Have you tried any of the higher end galleries? It would seem to me that
they would have the greatest interest in understanding the longevity of what
they are selling to keep happy customers. Over time, as more and more
photographic art as well as art prints are being made with ink jet
technology, they would have greatest need to consider longevity in assigning
a value to an art work.

funded non profit research lab connected to a major academic institution
(RIT). It does great work but of a generalized "caring for your photographs"
nature. You won't find Fuji/kodak, HP/Epson, etc. comparisons ever published
by IPI because it's parent organization (RIT) understandably wants to
maintain good relationships with the entire corporate world...

unaffiliated know what I mean.
