  • I do photography and had a darkroom set up in my bathroom in high school. If you are interested in darkrooms you should see if a community college near you offers a photo 1 that is black and white photography. I imagine it’s not super common. Some schools still offer it provides a nice foundation for students. If you are wanting to set one up at home watch craigslist or Facebook marketplace, used set ups do come up and usually at a steal. If you have a basement bathroom or a bathroom with a small window that’s easy to cover and a countertop for the enlarger you can set trays up in the tub and you’ll have a nice quick basic setup done. There’s lots of reading available online, or YouTube will be full of instructional videos. Genuinely it’s a tone of fun.

    That and the majority of people don’t know the title and if they did they would understand the humor imbedded within the work a little better.

    When I teach conceptual art in my class I always compare this to Duchamp’s Fountain. Everything that’s old becomes new again.



  • Yeah, I’ve traveled to Europe and loved every second of it. I would say the most dangerous place I have been to was within two hours of the Ukraine border. It only felt dangerous at the time because this was right when the war started and I wasn’t sure how it was going to unfold. I made a plan to bug out quickly if I had to. The biggest problem in parts of Europe is trying not to get scammed as a tourist and there are a lot of tourists scams. It never felt unsafe to walk around at night or anything like that. 10/10 experience and would recommend.
