New blog--Methods for art examination and documentation

Friends, colleagues, and former students ask me for technical hints
related to buying new equipment, fixing old ones and finding
educational resources.  I've started a blog on methods for art
Examination and Documentation, targeting innovative low-budget
scientific solutions, mostly, multispectral imaging and microscopy.

I thought this blog could be useful for:

    Medium-small museums' professionals, conservators, art
    historians and curators, who can read about instruments,
    applications or just geeky solution to improve or upgrade their
    equipment.

    Private practice professionals.  Conservators, art historians
    and art appraisers.

    Students in Higher Education, learning conservation and
    specifically conservation science.

I already published posts on topics such as photographic methods for
art documentation (color management, sharpness, HDR), multispectral
imaging equipment, panoramic infrared reflectography, RTI,
Terahertz, iPad for art documentation.  Next posts would be on
microscopy and raman spectroscopy.
