PC Forum Online Archive Project

Thomas Gotchy was the digital producer on this project, beginning in March 2010 and ending April 2011. In this time, he made full-frame scans over 2,000 images on a Nikon CoolScan IV ED scanner. Each sheet of negatives was numbered in the file # heading of the corresponding sheet, and that number was then incorporated into the prefix of the file name given to each photo scan. A secondary edit resulted in a subset of 400 selected images that Tom then corrected for dust and scratches using Adobe PhotoShop CS5 Macintosh. All files were backed-up on 3 separate external hard drives.

All images were photographed by Ann Yow-Dyson, staff photographer for Esther Dyson’s PC Forum from 1984-1992. Over the nine years Yow-Dyson shot approximately 425 rolls of Kodak Tmax film exposed between 400-1600 ISO, and 5 rolls of Fujicolor 100 negative film using Nikon F3 cameras. The negatives were processed and contacted printed at independent labs in NYC, edited by Esther Dyson and a small selection printed by Ann Yow for publication in the PC Forum proceedings.

The Forum, a gathering of the computer industry’s most elite pioneers and neophytes, was held in conference locations including Tucson, AZ, Palm Springs, CA, Phoenix, AZ and Naples, FL. This collaboration between Yow-Dyson and Gotchy was made possible by Esther Dyson for the purposes of bringing more of these historic images online for public access and information.
