photographing the invisible, 1911


i think that wayback weekends might become a mini theme here on Subjectify, just because Google book search is so much fun.

anyway, i love the idea of "Photographing the Invisible." it sounds so postmodern to my ears, but in 1911, published by the Freemasons, it had a more literal meaning — spirit photography! talk about believing in photography's scientific ability to capture its subjects. (even the dead ones.) fun!
