Description:	The article focuses on radiation dosimetry, which made use of the photographic film known as Type 2 Monitoring Film (Kodak) to detect and measure harmful ionizing radiation. It explores the implications of the demise of this technology in relation to Henri Van Lier's critique of photographic indexicality in his paper "Towards a Philosophy Instigated by Photography". It notes that the demise of indexical theories of photographic film can be aligned to the demise of the personal monitoring film. It states that dosimetry reveals the limitation of energetic effects in a superabundant field.
