Very similar to photocopier (xerox ?) transfers which actually are nothing
new. In the same vein as Polaroid transfers. Are these techniques to be
considered "alt"? Difficult to say since nobody ever defined what "alt"
should encompass. If "alt" refers only to printing processes (i.e. no
pinholes and such) then this inkjet transfers are alt, but not based on any
old technique. There can be a "new alt", after all, why not.
But perhaps it would be useful to distinguish "old, historical processes"
from simply "alt", which can be almost anything.
