T10. Biscuit Cam Pinhole with Daryl Tebbutt

In this workshop, participants will explore an unconventional approach to pinhole photography using biscuits as multi aperture pinholes to produce abstract and unexpected images. The session introduces the basic principles of pinhole photography and the construction of simple cameras made from found containers.The core of the workshop focuses on building biscuit based pinhole cameras, where the biscuit itself functions as a multi aperture pinhole, allowing participants to explore distortion, abstraction, and unusual visual results. The aim is to understand how the structure of the pinhole directly shapes the final image.Through experimentation and adjustment, participants will learn how camera construction affects the outcome, working through testing, observation, and modification. The emphasis is on hands on experimentation and iterative camera design.
