Photographs of MIT environments

Abstract

This thesis is based on an exhibition of 43 photographs shown in a visual thesis exhibition at the Creative Photography Gallery November 15-December 15, 1983. The photographs document MIT environments with special categories pertaining to equipment and artifacts, working environments and portraits. The project is essentially a creative rather than a research project. It was undertaken in four semesters beginning in the fall of 1982. The thesis is a catalog of the exhibition with project background and technical notes . Slides of the photographs may be seen in the Rotch Visual Collections Library, and prints may be seen at the MIT Museum. Five of the exhibition prints (1), (21), (22), (39) and (42) were purchased for the Hayden Gallery permanent collection.
