Default Hello from Suffolk UK

Hi all,

I (Matthew) co-run the Photo Department at University Campus Suffolk (www.ucs.ac.uk/photography). We have full B+W, Full Colour processing + Darkroom, along with a digital Lab, studios etc.

Am personally a film (10x8) (and digi) user, and we use 35mm, 120 and 5x4 film/ cameras on the Degree, and encourage use of the darkrooms.

I've partly joined as i'm interested in perhaps running some summer open access sessions or workshops in our facilities, and so am interested in feedback/ what kind of thing people would be interested in/ want etc.

I was particularly interested in the UK 'meetings' held for FADU, and thought the use of full wet darkrooms might be a nice compliment to this.

If enough would be interested perhaps I could start a seperate thread for suggestions/ requests etc., but in the meantime just introducting myself.

Hi Matthew and welcome to FADU. Nice to see that the University retains full darkroom facilities including colour. Interesting idea about summer access sessions or presumably any non term time sessions? Universities tend to have quite big vacation gaps at Xmas and probably more pertinently Spring.

Mike
