In his series, "Standard Stars", Eric William Carroll examines and engages with an archive of decaying astronomical glass plate negatives held by the Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute in Rosman, North Carolina. The institute’s Astronomical Photographic Data Archive (APDA) contains one of the largest collections of astronomical glass plates and represents nearly 150 years of efforts to study, catalog, and define the cosmos. Working directly with the photographic plates, Carroll composes new images from the emulsion that has peeled and separated from the glass backing over time. In revisiting the APDA and drawing focus on the deteriorating plates, Standard Stars recontextualizes the fragile objects to ask larger questions about the history of photography and the nature of obsolescence. "Standard Stars" by Eric William Carroll is on display pre-security, in Terminal 1. http://bit.ly/2CMrEez

Human vision allows for the perception of only a minute portion of the electromagnetic spectrum—we see this as visible light in a range of color, from violet on one end of the visible spectrum to red on the other.
