Risk & Representation: Framing HIV Now
Full text linkThe visual history of HIV is powerful and particular. From early on designers gave form to urgent messages and critical stances. In 2012, Truvada for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) was approved for use in the United States (US). Truvada is an antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV that when taken daily by people without HIV can reduce the chances of contracting the virus by more than 90%. The advent of PrEP has created a radically new land- scape for people at risk of contracting HIV, as well as a fresh opportunity for redefining sexual health. This article calls for designers to be present and active in creating new visual representations of HIV and risk, and articulating what PrEP means socially. Specifically, the thoughtful use of forums that foster self-authorship, community-constructed meaning, and the distribution of diverse narratives can serve to amplify authentic representation and awareness

The Tenacity of Memory: Art in the Aftermath of Atrocity
No full textIn this wide-ranging essay, Bernardi explores personal and artistic responses to state violence. Marking the limits of memory in witnessing the past, she argues for a complex understanding of memory as a mode of reclaiming the disappeared, as the foundation for consciousness building, and, when transmuted into material forms, as a means of witnessing. Bernardi conceptualizes artistic creation as fulfilling multiple roles in witnessing, and as an exchange that demands both speech and recognition. An artistic response to atrocity, she writes, demonstrates an important form of listening to testimonials of atrocity; in turn, that demonstration invites both members and observers into rituals of commemoration. Such rituals, she argues, can provide the foundation for rebuilding trust and understanding in communities that have been damaged by state violence
Formate as a Sensitivity Enhancer of Holographic Emulsions
Full text linkThis paper reports experiments that confirm Belloni (2003) that pre-soaking a silver halide holographic emulsion in a dilute solution of the formate ion (HCO2-) will hypersensitize the emulsion by a factor of 5xs to 10xs, depending on the timing of development post-exposure. The quantum efficiency of the emulsion is effectively 1 in the first case. The extremely fine grain size of the holographic emulsion (Slavich PFG-01) is maintained and holographic image quality is excellent. When combined with a TEA pre-soak the expected TEA color shift is maintained.
