Yeah ... I've tried mucking around with the ordinary grain stuff basic to PShop. Disappointing always, but someday it could get really real. The technology exists, but probably hasn't been properly harnessed. It's just manipulating the bit that are in the image. Gotta find the right eye to see/advise the result, couple it with the right software brain to make the bits do the right thing. The magic combo just hasn't been found yet.

I should have read the Tri-X Files article a little closer. The first step is "Desaturate" command, which is already the wrong step in the park. Channel Mixer produces far much better detail. Desaturate smooshes together bunches o' grey values. CM can bring out little individual textures ... wood grain on an upright bass in a smoky nightclub, T-Shirt fabric on a grungy singer...
