FILL WATER AND SET TEMP
YOU ONLY NEED ENOUGH CHEMISTRY TO FILL HALF OF THE TANK( EX: ONLY 250 ML FOR 2 ROLLS OF 35ML….)
TURN THE MACHINE ON, MAKE SURE THE PUMP IS ON& GIVE IT TIME TO GET CHEMISTRY TO THE DESIRED TEMP ( 68F )
WHEN YOU ARE READY, HOOK THE TANK UP TO THE FIXTURE, ADJUST WATER VALVE TO LUBRICRATE AND TO ALLOW YOUR TANK TO MAINTAIN ITS TEMP
WHEN YOU ARE READY TURN DIAL TO P. POUR IN YOUR CHEM
FOLLOW THE STEPS AS YOU WOULD NORMALLY
MAKE SURE TO TURN THE ROTATION OFF WHEN YOU POUR CHEMISTRY OUT.
***MAKE SURE TO HOLD THE BOTTOM OF YOUR TANK WHEN YOU USE THE LIFT TO EASE THE STRESS.
ALSO CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT AS YOU DUMP YOUR CHEMISTRY OUT THAT THE AMOUNT OF LIQUID IS THE SAME (IF NOT THEN THE LID IS NOT TIGHT)

Mapping
Project #1
The Mapping
Map: conventionalized representation of spatial phenomena on a plane surface. Unlike photographs, maps are selective and may be prepared to show various quantitative and qualitative facts, including boundaries, physical features, patterns, and distribution. Each point on such a map corresponds to a geographical position in accordance with a definite scale scale, in cartography, the ratio of the distance between two points on a map to the real distance between the two corresponding points portrayed. The scale may be expressed in three ways: numerically, as a ratio or a fraction and projection (see map projection map projection, transfer of the features of the surface of the earth or another spherical body onto a flat sheet of paper. Only a globe can represent accurately the shape, orientation, and relative area of the earth's surface features; any projection produces maps may also represent such comparative data as industrial power, population density, and birth and death rates. The earliest European printed maps (2d half of the 15th cent.) were made from woodcuts; maps are now reproduced by several processes, including photoengraving, wax engraving, and lithography. See also chart, term referring to maps prepared for marine navigation and for air navigation. All charts show, in some convenient scale , geographic features useful to the navigator, as well as indications of direction.
This project is an examination of the basic function of the camera : the objective witness of facts. It is a research project therefore it is up to you to define what mapping is and what to map and learn to articulate what you are thinking of and to translate your ideas into the visual language.
You will need to have a minimum of 3 prints and this could be RC or Fiber the choice is up to you however RC would be a lot easier to deal with at this point. When I ask for 3 prints this means that you have edited your work down to the most eloquent and the most seductive body of work to present. The prints has to be technically sound and they should flow easy both in form and content so your presentation is very important. During the critique your work should be hung or pinned on the wall or displayed however you think that it is best to present the work.
You should also prepare a statement ( a paragraph or two) so it can be read by the audience, this way they can prepare themselves to give you the critical feedback that you deserve. For the project we will listen to This American Life Mapping and a slide lecture will be presented to get you started.

Open up Lens, turn timer to focus
Roughly focus the image, make adjustment for size
Use grain focuser to sharpen the negative
Adjust easel, adjust aperture
Turn timer to time
Set timer to desire time for test strip
Proceed with test strip starting with Filter #2
1.Find the proper exposure time
2,Find the proper contrast
Make final Print
*** all chemistry are mixed with a 1 to 9 ratio
make sure to check fix with Hypo Check
