Please tell me about conferences or seminar series coming up in the next year- on photography, ecology, media, or 1920s-30s - especially if they are in the UK, or online, or free!

There is a new show on about Tromholts drawings of the northern lights at the Polar museum (www.bbc.com/news/article...), but the first proper photographs were made by Carl StΓΈrmer in 1909. This one is probably a bit later, but the look is similar.

Several people tried but as far as I know it would take until 1909 before Carl StΓΈrmer managed an actual photograph of the aurorae that showed some shape, not only an indistinct blur.
