A Risograph is a digital duplicator developed by Japan's Riso Kagaku Corporation. It's a simple printing machine that opens holes in thin sheets of paper called "masters" into which the ink flows. It prints much more rapidly than the typical copier used in printing work, but the ink can blur, bleed, and distort, which is conversely very useful for silk screening and typographic printing, as it brings about a unique texture and flavor. This was found to be an appealing characteristic in it's own right, and as a result Risograph's are being used as a "method" for creating works of art and book production in design studios in North and South America, Europe, and Asia. However, here in Japan, the home of the Risograph, there are not many Riso studios for art production to be found. Hand Saw Press is hoping to link up with that global flow and create art with people who see the appeal of this machine.
