Forgot about a scene in experimental photography yesterday. I was listening to a classmate tell another classmate that they wanted to find out what makes silver nitrate and ammonium citrate-or whatever the platinum process ingredient is-light sensitive so they could try and find another method. The teacher overheard and informed them that it was a bad idea. Especially given that all the methods we currently use took roughly 150 years to cement down. They are still planning to find out either way.
Should be interesting to see what comes of it...
