do výrazně mužského složení českého mastodonu dávám pár inspirací, koho rád sleduju z nemužských účtů/iniciativ

budu rád i za další tipy do komentu

mrzí mě taky, že po jedné z euforických vln ze slovenské umělecké scény jich moc nezůstalo

When you love letters, every letter is a love letter.

Dear letters lovers,
OSP is happy to start the plotter workshop series, a series of four workshops from February to June, focusing on languages and uses related to pen plotters.
The first workshop will focus on the so called single line fonts.
Bring your favorite font.
Together with our special guest Mariel Nils, we will write love letters to [current, future, past] lovers, friends, favorite glyphs, summer lake, collective, picture, preferred useless object, etc.
We will revisit the font(s) you brought using one of our recipes. Through a series of scripts and steps we'll find their shaking spines (ductus or central line).
We will then draw your declarations on paper, envelope or fabric using the spines and a pen-plotter machine*.
While we'll work with fonts, this is not a workshop about type design rather an encounter with the tangibility of letterforms, pens and algorithmic processing.
Join us for this introduction to rafting on the river in the heart of our glyphs throughout a set of software pieces.

I was gone for a bit, working on a book. Finally, it’s done! 📚

22km of River is a book of collected materials, and site-specific narratives found along the Svitava River in Brno (CZ), a post-industrial area of the city, where the walking distance of paths on both river banks measures about 22km, exploring possibilities for reading and reimagining landscape.

136 pages
20 copies
Riso + digital printing

@Lioh Yay!! Glad it arrived safely. I had the same issue with a walkman, and apparently it's quite common so it wasn't hard to repair. :))
Freshly printed!! 🖨️ Here’s a sneak peak of riso printed materials for an upcoming exhibition 🟢
