@cram_books ~ will be teaching the Tuesday morning section of our Riso elective Risograph Printing: An Introduction. These classes usually fill on the first day of registration with a waiting list-during this week's course adjustment period you have a rare chance to grab a spot for yourself and study Riso in our world class facility!

As technology transforms our lives, many artists have turned to print media and Risograph printing-a vibrant and flexible medium that bridges digital and analog techniques. In this course we will explore the possibilities that this dynamic medium offers through print design assignments, readings and critiques. Students will receive technical training in print design for the Riso process through in-class printing, demonstrations and presentations. Feedback and guidance will be given in group and individual critiques. An overview of Risograph printing and its range of techniques, as well as examples of Risograph and printmaking-based work will be included. Each student will prepare and print a portfolio of various Risograph projects in the form of print editions, zines, cards, promotional flyers, and other printed matter. Group assignments will foster a spirit of collaborative problem solving. By the end of the course, students will have a clear understanding of the Risograph process as well as a new set of digital and analog design skills that can be applied to other mediums. Note: Open to students from all departments.
