Define 'digital'. I also didn't mention that the design is mathematically derived; specifically it is 4 scales of an addition table of residues of nine. The image above is a size-reduced scan of a size-reduced print, and the print file I created in Canvas. I did the proof printing on an HP1220c.

I'm sure C1ay will very specially see that you get the same prompt delivery as Racoon.

Re: Hypography Benefit Sale

but you see, i am one of those people that likes to get a specialer special then the special gets so i have a question sent to clay already, definitely buying this, but it just does not feel "Alex" enough to be a present, so, lets see what clay says

nice job btw, wait till you see the contact card i am working on, i think you'll get a kick out of it... just pondering, how are the colors derived?

Yes; I see.

The colors I assigned arbitrarily.
1=Black
2=Red
3=Orange
4=Yellow
5=Green
6=Blue
7=Indigo
8=Violet
9=White

The lower-right quadrant in the print is the primary table & oriented left-to-right & top-to-bottom. So, Blue+Green=Red. The other scaled quadrants illustrate that the pattern repeats ad infinitum as do the positive integers. A more in-depth discussion is in the Katabatak thread, around post #83 or such a matter. >> Katabatak thread .......

Re: Hypography Benefit Sale

color sounds reasonable

Hey Turtle, out of curiosity, where are you located in the states (please pm ) i'd love to chat if you have time, if you are within, say 4-6 hours of driving from here maybe even make it into a weekend trip

anyhow, back to working on my contact card (and i'd like you to look at it, once i'm done (i think you will get that scratch your head feeling, followed by an "Uh?", followed by a "wth is that" , and you'll understand what i mean by special) ) and listening to the mix i'm working on...

I am currently living, more-or-less, in the greater Vancouver Washington metropolitan area. About 10 miles South of me, across the great Columbia River, is Portland Oregon, the recently declared 'greenest' city in the US of A.

Here's an historical blurb on my villiage: >> Fort Vancouver - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the best spirit of artists, I'm an inveterate recluse, and as such not much of one for meeting up with folks. Nonetheless, if you should happen to show up in my villiage and PM'd me that you were here, I might be coaxed to meet you at some public drinking establishment.

Can't wait to see it Alex!

Talking Re: Hypography Benefit Sale

9 days left. for the time being, the katabatak thread has disappeared into the aether and that makes these prints nearly the only public record of this arcane mathematical art. this could be the investment that turns the economy around.

that's all i got.

Re: Hypography Benefit Sale

Some of us are discussing the possibility of getting better hardware, an improved hosting solution and (not least) a more solid backup system. This will cost money, so everyone who buys a print here will be helping us a lot.

Re: Hypography Benefit Sale

I put Turtles print in a glass floating frame.
I have yet to hang it on the wall..

Looks pretty cool.

Now, I hope that Tormod remembers that you get a basic sponsorship with the purchase of a print.., and with a sponsorship you don't have those pesky "Classmates" and "Netflix" ads..
