Scanner Camera
Scanner Camera Test Lab
Ive been making scanner cameras and experimenting with scanner photography since 2001 when I first wondered what would happen if I put stuff on the scanner. I started wondering what could be scanned and started using my flat bed scanner upright like a camera using it to successfully create a number of works (you can see here) over the years that utilise the scanners ability to capture multiple times within one image. I started to build scanner cameras after one of my many web surfs uncovered the amazing work of Mike Golembewski who had posted his instructions on how to make a scanner see more than just a few centimetres in front of the glass scanning plate. I had wondered if it could be done and now I had a starting point.
