There are “album listening sessions,” which is pretty cool. I have this image of a darkened room, pot smoke hanging in the air, plush cushions around and people with long hair and beards sitting around listening to an album, A side and then B side. Reminds me of the ’70s perhaps? And . . . once again, Review Week, where the print shop prints so many posters for pin-ups around the College of Design. The student employees that I have and work with are just *so good.* It is the color to the day and the light in the room; their humor, tenacity, professionalism – it all just shines and I am always grateful. <nowlistening>You Are The Everything – Redbird version</nowlistening> BYOV (I think?).…

Past times

Review Week

Posted on November 27, 2023

The HP z6100 printing as expected. 8 ink colors, 8 print heads, 24″ 20 lb. plotter bond paper. Good stuff.
