Scanography: Making Art With a Flatbed Scanner
A dumpster, via a flatbed scanner.
Ever feel like you should be doing more with your flatbed scanner? This class will teach you to use your scanner to create original artwork. We’ll image static objects directly on the scanner, moving objects at a distance, and things in between. You’ll leave understanding not only the image-making potential of the scanner, but also why it does things the way it does, and how others have used this potential in the past. You’ll also take home digital files of your scanner experiments.

Instructor
John Deamond is officially an artist, or at least paid a lot for a degree that says so. Labeling himself an “autotype artist,” John deconstructs photography, investigating new methods of image-making that redefine the photographic. Educated at Parsons School of Design and St. Mary’s College of Maryland, he now works in an instructional support role at Montgomery College. His work has been shown in galleries and museums in New York, Philadelphia, New Jersey, Baltimore, D.C., Las Vegas, Toronto, and California.
