Local LA makerspace CRASH Space has been invited to exhibit at the Wende Zine Fest in Culver City this August, and we want YOUR zines for the booth! We've also opened our doors for a series of classes open to the public as part of our Summer of Zines series.
In this workshop attendees will take their own zine layout or image and turn them into color separated images ready for the risograph printer. Either hand separated or digital (please bring your own computer / design), we will go into using the risograph and produce the final copies of our zines.
Per Riso Pop, "Risograph printing is a technique best described as a ‘digital screen printing’. The process is similar to screen printing, but with the convenience of an office copier. It’s known for its vivid colours (that other printers can’t produce) and its specific textures. These machines deliver ‘perfect imperfections’ and provide a cheap and easy method for reproducing work at large quantities, like posters, prints and zines."
