I have a few events lined up this fall to break up the intense printing schedule of Interstices & Intersections:

Thursday, September 19th: Ampersand Club, Minneapolis, MN. I will be speaking to the Ampersand Club in Minneapolis. This is open only to Ampersand Club members.

Saturday, October 19th: American Printing History Association’s 2013 Conference, Seeing Color/Printing Color , New York City. I will be delivering a talk titled “Painting with Polymer: Priming, Shading, and Layering in Digital Letterpress.” The talk will focus on my illustration process for Interstices & Intersections, in which I paint illustrations, re-draw them in separations, and then layer them on top of one another on press. You can register and learn more about the conference here.

November 2nd and 3rd: UK Fine Press Book Fair, Oxford Brookes University, Oxford, UK. I will be exhibiting at this year’s Oxford book fair, featuring prints from the upcoming Interstices & Intersections, the new trade facsimile of Æthelwold Etc., as well as other in-print titles.

The Library of Congress has begun the process of acquiring my archive of type and book design. The first installment has been delivered, including more than 1,000 preparatory drawings and proofs, progressive states of the twenty-six letters, and two sketch books for Æthelwold Etc.
