Risomania

Risography, named after the Japanese company Riso, is a stencil printing process similar to screen printing, developed during the transition from mechanical to digital printing. Although the printing press looks like a copier, the ink is applied to the paper without the use of heat or chemicals, thus saving energy and being environmentally friendly. Today, graphic artists and designers from all over the world have discovered the Risograph—and the corresponding machines for similar, almost forgotten techniques such as mimeography—and have sparked an unexpected renaissance of analog printing.

A carefully researched introduction on the past, present, and future is followed by an article on important pioneers of the current risography scene. The "Risoworld" chapter introduces publishers, printers, and design studios from around the world with a strong affinity for risography. The heart of the volume is a collection of wonderful, diverse works such as postcards, magazines, posters, flyers, and experimental printed matter, all of which captivate with the power of color, the unique texture, and, above all, the perfectly imperfect authenticity of risography.
