risograph bowerbird

June 22nd, 2019

My old bowerbird image revisited! I took a Risograph class this week to see if it would be a good substitute for the dear departed Gocco, which I miss using a lot! It turns out to be almost identical but at a larger scale, similarly delightful and frustrating, and a fairly inaccessible medium 🤑🙅‍♀️ (the machines are essentially obsolete and expensive photocopiers and it’s hard to find ones to use or rent $$$—although once you have access to one, the prints or booklets are pretty cheap to make at volume). I made extras: $12 for the more successful ones and $5 for somewhat misprinted.
