During the first class of my Intermediate Photo course, the instructor was mentioning that one of the projects would be in manipulation, and mentioned PURPOSELY reticulating one's film to get weird effects. He then went on about how HARD it was to reticulate the film we used... heehee. I've got some 733t skillz, if I can reticulate it BY ACCIDENT! ;)

Another cool 'Accidental' effect is to put the paper in the developer tray, turning the lights on, yelling, and turning them off. The yell is important here.

My dad calls it solarization. Not sure of the name, haven't done it with him in a long time. Haven't used trays in a long time. Miss them (Trays don't have FUSES! FUSES ARE EVIL! I H8 FUSES! THEY COST ME TWO DAYS OF WORK!)
