◷ TRANSLATING…

J!NN: Let’s begin with your most recent series

Li Bye-Bye: [laughing] You are more qualified to talk about me than I am!

J: Why would you say that?! [laughing]

LBB: Because you study Media Art Hystories!

J: I do! And I can say a bit about it from my perspective later, but you are the Artist in Residence here, and “Pictures of Ghosts” is an amazing new series that we need to talk about!

LBB: 哪裡哪裡?[laughing]

J: Haha, you pumpkin! [TRANSLATION ERROR] 🎃❗

LBB: Thank you so much! [laughing]

[both sip through the plastic straws of their bubbleteas]

銀版法的具體步驟為:形成「潛影」;先以水銀(汞)蒸汽顯影;陰影部分透明,可以看到黑暗色的鍍銀銅板表面,便成為一幅正像的照片。。。
The specific steps of the silver error type of chronophotography are as follows: a “latent image” forms; first, it is developed with mercury (mercury) vapor; the shadow is transparent, and the surface of the dark silver-plated copper plate appears to becomes a positive image photograph.
