Phillip Even if it has been done before you should consider doing it yourself and you may gain new insight or be led along a different path to a new revelation. Thomas Bachler the German born pinhole artist in his recent exhibition and book Arbeiten mit der Camera Obscura (Pinhole Exhibits), published parallel to the exhibition at Kunsterhaus, Gottingen. (2001) includes 'Scenes of Crime' - where 'shooting' a picture is achieved through firing a gun into an aperture-less camera containing the photosensitised material. The gun's trigger becomes the camera's shutter, penetrating the camera (and negative) making the exposure and transforming the scene into the 'scene of crime'.
