  • Summary

  • This week's episode is about photography. While numerous scientists were conducting experiments with light sensitive materials as early as the 18th century, it was Daguerre in the middle of the 19th century who really advanced the medium. He wasn't the first photographer, but he innovated coming up with a practical method and sharing it with the world so others could build off his process and improve it further. Daguerre was also among the first to recognize photography as an art form and not just a science. In the early days, photographs would require long exposure times. As a result moving subjects couldn't be caught on film, but in 1838, Daguerre pointed his camera to the street outside his window. A man was having his boots polished and just happened to stand still long enough so that he and the person polishing his boots would become the first people captured in a photo. This week my guest was Matt Stoeffel from Kodak. He shared tremendous insights into how black and white as well as color film worked, and how our digital cameras process images.
