The London Alternative Photography Collective presents “Making It Real” an festival showcasing artists who are working at the intersection of analogue and digital technologies. This exhibition explores the combined creative possibilities when analogue technologies and digital technologies are used together.

This exhibition considers the following questions:– How do analogue processes help us to understand their digital counterparts?
– How can digital processes be made to seem more tangible using analogue technologies?
– How is our understanding of “reality” influenced by the use of analogue and digital techniques?
– How can traditional analogue photography, film and sound making techniques be creatively disrupted to create unique artworks and productions?
– How can digital processes be enhanced by analogue input?
