Re: Work in the alt exhibit



Henk,
Your research sounds very intriging but I hope it doesnt clog up the nozzles on your printer. What would you call this process? Something different to Carbon Transfer, I presume.
Maybe, ''Inkjet Transfer''?
How's that Phillip?
Great stuff ! !
See you later inovator.

Don,
Of course, I agree with you, if you want to bandy words, but you and I and anyone else including Phillip, knows the difference between a traditional process involving the making of a gelatine image and tranfering it by lengthy, wet means to a paper support, and the use of a computer inkjet printer.
If you cannot see the difference that is OK. But, of course you can see........

... be careful.... there are transfers from inkjet images, i am messing around with it.
If you print on prepared polyester , prepared with acrylic gloss medium and inkaid, you can transfer -pigment based- ink jet prints onto whatever you want.
You could even made negs on polyester sheets prepared with inkaid ....
cheers,
Henk


What point are you trying to make? Mmmmmmmm??
Chin up.

John,

Inkjet prints ARE NOT the Carbon Transfer process.
Hmmm, I thought the image was transferred from the computer to the inkjet
print. And as you said inkjets are pure carbon. So doesn't that mean that
Inkjet prints are indeed Carbon Transfer prints? Yes?
