Thats a lie, 35mm square still has light falloff in the corners but.. But i'm interested how that will add to the aesthetic; the shape of the object projected upon usually decides the falloff, this may round off the corners, seeming a less sharp shape?
The slide carrier has an opening of a 38mm sqaure with rounded corners, I can make a sharp 35mm square .. my circular pattern were coming out about 50mm so definately not going to fit.. I'll be getting the size right next time!

too large

I was finding the area of 35mm, as I was having to mask into 20mm squares, a little smaller than optimal.
I tried 120 (6x7 back on my 5x4) - but I've gone too big for the circular patterns - the ones I've not managed to project yet!  The negs are about the size of the whole slide area so I'll have to experiment to see how much area I can actually project

Forming and Destroying

Trying to find a comfortable heading for the images;
Forming shapes by defining them with a grid, destroying the shape by distorting the lines.
