EMAC: printlab assignment, landscape triptych




New to the print lab, I decided to do a little more than just a standard inkjet. What resulted was an infinite scan/print feedback loop, or something. The bottom layer of these images were scans of film photos I took in Carboneras, Mexico, summer 2009. One thing I noticed while staying there and interacting with the kids, the neighborhood, and seeing the schools, was how far detatched their society was from technology, and how tight-knit, quick-minded, and intuitive the people all were.
The top layers are transparency prints of things that I had scanned that were not 2 dimensional, in a failed effort to extract something permanent in a more tangible form than pixels on a screen.
