Brian and
David LaMacchia made it possible for
this UNIX-avoider to publish on the World Wide Web. Without them, I'd be just
another has-been computer scientist clinging to his Lisp Machine and getting
misty talking about the good old days.
Jonathan Rees made it
possible for this C-avoider to create the feedback scripts. Every time you click
on a feedback box, it starts up a
Scheme 48 job running on our file
server. Thanks to Jonathan, a few simple lines of Lisp code suffice to elegantly
solve most script problems.
The
Eastman Kodak Company was kind enough
to donate a
PhotoCD scanner to the
MIT Media Lab's Interactive Cinema group,
many of whose members graciously assisted me in my wee hour struggles with the
PhotoCD workstation.

About the Photos
I switched to a Canon EOS system after
my
Nikons were stolen in Filthadelphia in September 1993. Almost all of the
photos here were taken with two Canon EOS-5 (European A2E) bodies, and 20-35/2.8,
35-350L, 50/1.0, 50/2.8 macro, or 14/3.5 lenses, all mounted on a Bogen tripod
with FOBA ballhead. One out of 45 rolls was shot with a Yashica T4 point and
shoot. The "rafting down the Pacuare" roll was shot with a waterproof Nikon
Action Touch.
I came back with 24 rolls of slides, mostly Fuji Sensia but some Fuji Velvia.
I shot 17 rolls of Fuji 400 negative film. I've written
a
lot already about how I take pictures.
