If you couldn’t tell from the name, bacteriography is the marriage between bacteria and photography. (Who knew the two would create such wonderful children?) Copfer begins by taking a supply of bacteria and covering a plate with it. He then places a photo atop the plate and exposes it to radiation, making something akin to a negative of the print. After this, he develops the image as the bacteria grows, before finally coating it with acrylic and resin. more via huffpost.
