These images were shot as a study for my collaborative project, which is either a flip book or a zoetrope. Preferably a zoetrope.

Criteria for the project would simply be produce a set of images, incorporating a darkroom process or processes, as a sequence that reads well in a zoetrope. We will build custom zoetropes to accommodate whatever format you choose. Materials for shooting are photographers choice, but plan on a minimum of 20 images in order to achieve a coherent sequence. An entire roll of 36 exp. 35mm film would be a good choice, but images may be shot digitally and printed as digital negatives. Our zoetropes can be made at almost no cost using recycled materials, though building a solid and functional turntable on which to mount them would be a good investment. This may also come out of recycled materials, we could also use pottery wheels or such, I have one and will look into borrowing a banding wheel. A banding wheel would make an excellent base for a zoatrope, they spin easily and typically have high inertia.
