35mm

Here's something I haven't seen before...

Luke Evans and Josh Lake, two students from Kingston University, swallowed 35mm film. After the film passed through their digestive systems, they were excreted in a dark room and washed (!). Josh & Luke used a scanning electron microscope to blow the damaged film emulsion up to large-scale black and white prints. They are showing the prints in an installation, called "I Turn Myself Inside Out," which will be on display at Hoxton Gallery in London, UK on June 12th–13th. I must say, they are kinda strangely cool looking.
