More books, in non-silver

I thought about printing my thesis in non-silver processes like cyanotype, gum bichromate, and palladium. Its carrying over from the original idea of obsolete things and going from analog to digital and back to analog. Although these images are all from digital captures so its just going to "obsolete" analog processes. I like the images but I'm not sure if they are as strong as the original images. They have a certain aesthetic but I'm not sure if its the one I want to have for the book series. However they do give me a lot of control manipulating the images that isn't photoshop and that is always refreshing.
