RISO Lovers MAKEATHON vol.01 [Illustration]

A makerthon where Riso lovers from around the world, with their Risographs, will search for printed "illustrations". They'll all share the techniques their testing and at the end create a zine!

The theme of the first makerthon is "illustration". A MAKEATHON searching for Risograph "illustration" prints. Participants will share the techiniques their testing and print work for roughly 4 weeks, award completed works, and arrange them into a book.

At the HandSawPress Risograph studio in Tokyo's Fudomae, you can seek advise on anything from data creation to printing, so even beginners can participate. People from other Riso studios and overseas are of course welcome.
