When operating between media, there is often a conflict of speed. This is especially true when moving from digital to analog—translation takes time. This collaborative project with Ashley Pigford and Troy Richards will explore the gap between the virtual image capture and its translation to physical form. This collaborative, real-time project demonstration + installation consists of:
1) Capture: There will be a “photo booth” set up to take portraits of conference participants.
2) Cut: Using a CNC Router, we will cut wood block reliefs of the vector line art portraits;
3) Print: We will then print these wood block reliefs on a printing press. This project will result in a small exhibition and edition of the prints.

We attended codex 2011 in Berkeley and participated in the book fair. Launched the new artist book, Wallpaper, which was well-received. It was a great event.

Fifteen more states were also represented. Thirty-nine international exhibitors came from 12 countries (including 10 from Germany, 7 from Canada and 6 from France.)
Matt Neff, Katie Smith and I printed this poster at the Common Press at UPenn for the History of Letterpress exhibition at The Print Center on Latimer St., in Philadelphia.

Katie Baldwin and Tricia Treacy attended the College Book Arts Conference in Iowa City, IA during the wintery days of January in 2009. We presented our collaborative book, another place, and demonstrated reductive woodblock printing to create a one page book with text on the vandercook press. It was a lot of fun and seems like people enjoyed our presentation, the last event of the conference. The print shop was amazing with wonderful natural light.
