Machine made - a generative image, #penplot by a robot, layered with letterpress from #3dprinted #type, and printed using 3d printed tools. By POP Member @holmesylogic 💙

Machine-Made - a generative image, plotted by a robot, with letterpress from 3D printed type, and printed using 3D printed tools.

Yet with all that tech, the print still isn't "perfect" - there are still variables that make each unique, even in an age of mechanical reproduction.

#Throwback to our Creative Leadership Conference

Matt helped us to document our discussions through the creation of a series of prints, using his press created in the University’s Digital Fabrication Labs. 🤩🤩

@HolmesyLogic has brought his printing press along today, and will be working with the cohorts to make some magic! 🤩🤩

[Nudge @nudgecommunity]

Next week at The Plot @LewrySue & @HolmesyLogic will be joining forces for two days of letterpress & screen printing. You are invited to join in this amazing collaboration, see demos & make something! They’ll be in Tuesday to Thursday… and they’ll be at the street party🎉👏🏻

Last week, @powderhamcastle, the home to the Earl of Devon and his family, was scanned by members of the Arts, Humanities and Business Faculty, for their project with the Faculty of Health.

The project will create virtual reality spaces for the elderly to 'visit'.

Finding funky backgrounds to photograph my studio trolley against was a laugh yesterday afternoon, scooting around the university building!

Really interesting & great project by @PlymUni & @dartmoornpa helping make sites more interactive and accessible to all! 👏
We’re excited to get started with similar technology and interactive engagement in our new #archaeology dig sites around the country too!

😍 #TBThursday to last week's trip to @dartmoornpa Dartmoor Longhouse. Scan experts @tretsomesjiht @jano_veliz & @holmesylogic used their family of scanners to create a VR replica of the site

Next year our intergenerational groups will be able to virtually walk here📸@jano_veliz

Great to be able to finally take my plywood printing press into the letterpress workshops! The technician there has been so kind helping me develop this press over lockdown, it was brilliant to be able to finally show him the real thing in person at last.

@luketonge The University of Plymouth have co-created a website for their Ignite Festival to showcase our final major work from this year, apparently it will be live for 3 years after our graduation - https://t.co/STv1LsP4tB

Bit of a vase print fail 🤦🏼‍♂️
Digital fabrication certainly isn't a 100% guarantee of success in making - 3D prints often fail - be boring if it all worked first time though, eh?

Holmes' Moving Desk. ⁣
⁣
Inspired by the works of Hayao Mayazaki, this desk is 4 workspaces in 1. One desk stays still, while any of three others can slide up or down to working height, giving you a desk per project and yet never needing to pack anything away

[Matt Holmes @HolmesyLogic]

@reluctantjoiner That gives a really interesting effect, I bet that the glow would quite striking
