Over the next decade or so he printed negatives salvaged from trash cans, took up Kodalith and Polaroid film, experimented with the Thermofax (an early photocopier) and made montages and collages. He mounted sequential prints of landscapes on the diagonal and linked their horizon lines. (These vertiginous images, Mr. Wood has said, came out of his experience as a wartime pilot.)
