Made new test prints on some off-cuts, using a slightly stronger developer solution than usual to see impact on max. depth. The main image (Eagle Creek, Oregon) is using 18% sodium acetate (curve corrected negative), the test strips are of 20% and 15% solutions (both uncorrected). The phone capture doesn't really show the differences too well, but I think I will go for the 18-20% from now on...

David Cronenberg, master of body horror movies, was born today (March 15) in 1943 (during World War II!)
I saw his films 'Crash' and 'Naked Lunch' early, around the same time, in 1997 or 1998. Since then, I've seen many more of his- I just counted, I've seen 13 of his 23 films, and I've loved all of them. I'm a huge fan. My favorite was Shivers for a while. I'm not sure what it is now. Gotta see those final 10!
Happy birthday, David. We love …

A citizen of Rome in 117 AD,
under Emperor Trajan,
would've found it difficult to imagine the empire not existing.
The roads, the aqueducts, the legal system, the trade networks stretching from Britain to Mesopotamia:
all of it seemed to be a near-fact of nature, like gravity
Edward Gibbon gave us six volumes explaining how that feeling turned out to be wrong,
and even he couldn't fully untangle all the causes.

The empire always falls
A citizen of Rome in 117 AD, under Emperor Trajan, would've found it difficult to imagine the empire not existing. The roads, the aqueducts, the legal system, the trade networks stretching from Britain to Mesopotamia: all of it seemed to be a near-fact of nature, like gravity // the Mediterranean itself.

The Trump administration has been clear in its targeting of the Somali and Latino communities through Operation Metro Surge.
President Trump called people from Somalia “garbage,”
said “we don’t want them in our country,”
and told them to “go back to where they came from.”
Following Trump's comments, ICE and CBP agents have indiscriminately arrested
— without warrants or probable cause
— Minnesotans solely because the agents perceived them to be Somal…

The small town of Festus, Missouri
— a community made up of just under 14,000 people
— has become a focal point over the growing backlash against
AI data centers entering communities across the country.
Following the approval of a $6 billion data center project,
voters removed four of the eight members of the Festus city council,
as well as started a petition to remove the remaining city council members and the mayor, reports Politico.
