@robtoner Awesome! Thanks for sending something it. We just crossed the threshold for the number of contributors that I was aiming for, though there is still room/time for a few more.
@TubularCorporation I’m hoping to get started on the layout stage next week sometime, but if you can get me something reasonably soon that’s cool too.
i also just submitted a couple of images, formatted as 2 spreads and 1 single sheet
i am open to any way you would want to print things but think it would be cool to see video stills printed in the “wrong” colors (something like a color separation but then with different colors from the expected CMYK used)
Not a big deal, if I come up with something over the weekend when I’m trying stuff out for Tuesday’s livestream I’ll submit some still, otherwise no worries.
just seeing your open call today. sent you a quick submission. hope it’s not too late. thanks!
No, not too late, Thanks!
I’ll still take stuff through this week.
i just submitted a few stills. I would be interested to make something with an understanding of the printing method, but also curious to see what artifacts come out as a result of the printing arbitrary stills with this process. does greyscale stuff work?
Yeah, grayscale is totally cool. I’ve gotten a couple of one-color images that I’m really excited about.
There is a preference-related question I have on the submission form that is about whether artists are cool with the idea of using colored paper, which I think could make a great foundation for monochromatic images.
My only real concern with grayscale images is if they are super dark, that they would be either difficult or messy to print.
UPDATE: I’m happy to say that enough submissions came in so there is now enough for two issues of the zine! I’m going to start playing around with things and reach back out to everyone for feedback before anything goes to print. Thanks to everyone who took a moment to send something in! I’ll be in touch soon. Cheers! /Jeff
Project Update:
Two months on, I’ve made moderate progress in sorting and processing the images. More content was submitted than I knew what to do with, which was both awesome and daunting, given that it was so much more than expected. While weighing the options and experimenting with various separations and layouts, I ended up getting off track and running low on creative energy at the same time, and I had to put it on hold while turning my attention toward work/life things. In short, I just got overwhelmed, and I apologize for going silent for a bit.
Formally speaking, given the wide range of colors, I came to the conclusion that it will make the most sense to print the majority of images in a variation of 4 process colors, something close to CMYK, while representing a few pages with 1-4 spot colors. This will make it easier as it will standardize the format and allow for greater flexibility in the layout.
I hope to make a big push just after Thanksgiving (US holiday, end of the Nov), when the university I work at goes all online for the remainder of the semester. Best Wishes to everyone out there!
Hey there, just came across this thread. Sounds really cool! Is there an update? I’d love to do something similar for a music release I’m planning, but have absolutely no idea of printing. Can someone maybe point out some information/resources where I can read a bit and get started? Would be much appreciated!
if you interested in riso printing just look “riso” up on youtube
for example ALL ABOUT RISO | olivia and pindot | risograph - YouTube
I’m sure there is a diy riso printer in your area
Sure, here is a quick update! Everyone confirmed participation (final person this past week), though I still need to make a few separations for some of the more challenging pieces, particularly in the second book. Below is a sample spread I made to test things–because of the method of binding, it shows half an image from two artists; after assembly each artist will have two facing pages. The fluorescent pink ink doesn’t totally come through in the RGB scan, and I’ve since adjusted things slightly, but this is pretty close:
I’m so excited for these! And I don’t even remember if I submitted anything 
I will for sure be supporting regardless and hopefully jumping in an edition depending on how things go if I didn’t submit.
Thank you for giving so much time and talent to this really neat project the image/texture of those prints is stunning
Wow, absolutely gorgeous!!
Would you be willing to maybe share some knowledge on how you seperated the colours? Or where I could find some ressources? I’d love to do something similiar for a booklet accompanying a cassette release, but have no experience in riso.
Thanks, did that already, but those tutorials are not really going into the aspect of seperating colours in an already existing image! Will keep looking!
Edit: nevermind, I think I found something 
check videos for cmyk color seperation. its basically the same. there are also videos for how you archive 4 color seperation for screenprinting.
(using this for my prints… Merch | Elfenbeinturm )
but you dont have to do the rasterization, riso printers can do that without preparation.
should also work in rgb - 3 color seperation
looks stunning. can’t wait for the finished zine!
Thanks, me too! 
please send me more pics on discord or mail 
@Meudiademorte this is what I’ve got for you at this point.
