Upside Down, Left To Right

January 28, 2012

I must admit I have a weakness for letterpress related films. And even though this subtile short film by Danny Cooke have been featured on the various blogs and was circulating on twitter the last few days I felt the urge to (re)post it as well. Well, because it can never be too much;)
"A short film about letterpress and one of the few remaining movable-type printing workshops in the UK, situated at Plymouth University, featuring Paul Collier."

December 7, 2011

Bound Away

August 6, 2011

'Bound Away' is an amazing handmade book (and music album) made by Sacramento band Cake in collaboration with BANDmade Books. The book contains lyrics from the Cake's recent album and illustrations by Rigel Stuhmiller. All band members worked with BANDmade books during production - they have been making paper from band's old clothes, carve linoleum, work with letterpress.
There were 1000 books published and the part of the sales will go to the 826 Valencia organization and The Hamilton Wood Type Museum.
