Just in Time, or A Short History of Production, by Xavier Antin

February 6, 2011 by Fosco Lucarelli 1 Comment

Four printers using differents technologies from 1880 to 1976. Each printer produces just one colour and is in chain with another one to get together a complete colour book.

“A production process that brings together small scale and large scale production, two sides of the same history.”

MAGENTA (Stencil duplicator, 1880)
CYAN (Spirit duplicator, 1923)
BLACK (Laser printer, 1969)
YELLOW (Inkjet printer, 1976)
