QT'd 🧵 on the value & urgency of slow tech, pre-digital tech, non-digital craft & making for a critical & ethical digital humanities:
Image of an Adobe Illustrator design intended for creating a letterpress printing block by cutting via lasercutter onto wood, to use to print the image to paper with ink; to achieve this, the black & white colors are inverted. The image will also need to be horizontally flipped, so that when the block is pressed to paper the inked image is legible; but for social media viewing I have left it unflipped. The design shows a historical drawing of “the general of the Luddites” edited to be easier to print from a letterpress block, next to the text “critical tech forever! / no 'innovations' serving profit over people.” in antique broadside-style font. Photo of a block of wood in a lasercutter, being cut to show a historical illustration of a Luddite, and the text "critical tech! no 'innovation' serving profit over people". Photo is from after 5 total lasercutter passes. Photo digitally flipped for readability.

Drew & lasercut two origami cranes for a letterpress poster printing project #DHmakes
Photo of a 4" square of clear acrylic that's been lasercut so a drawing of an origami crane is raised off the surface, for use printing with ink on paper. This version of the drawing has little decorative lines on parts of the crane. Photo of a 4" square of clear acrylic that's been lasercut so another drawing of an origami crane, this one a simpler line drawing, is raised off the surface, for use printing with ink on paper Photo of rectangle of clear acrylic that's in a lasercutter, with two squares cut into it and on each square a drawing of an origami crane etched so it's raised off the surface, for use printing with ink on paper

Thank you @queermedieval.bsky.social for creating the QTd drawing! I'm lasercutting it right now so I can letterpress print it w/added text #DHmakes (Researching this, I learned gov agents peppersprayed this person directly through the breathing hole of their costume)
Photo of a lasercutter engaged in etching a clear 3x3 acrylic plate with a horizontally reflected version of @queermedieval.bsky.social's drawing of the Portland Frog (costumed protestor) facing off with two heavily armored government agents

3x3" reverse print block of @queermedieval.bsky.social's art (nondrawn areas will be inked); now cutting a big 10x8" version (drawing part will be inked). Rather than mess w/mounting .25"-thick acrylic, will print in 2 passes on top of sketched showing where type (.918") can fit around printed image
Photo of lasercutter work creating printing blocks using @queermedieval.bsky.social's art depicting the Portland Frog (person in full blown-up frog costume) facing off against two heavily armed government agents. In the foreground, a finished 3"x3" clear acrylic block is held up; the art has been etched on it horizontally flipped, so it will show the right way once printed with ink on paper. The drawing parts are cut away, so it'll be the empty non-drawn parts that are inked in the print. In the background, a large 10"x8" acrylic sheet is being lasercut with the same image but larger, and this time inverted so that the nondrawn parts are etched away, and the drawn parts of the image will be inked in the print. Photo of yellow construction paper that's been used to outline the 3x3" image block, so that after printing it I can lay out moveable type to print on the same paper using a second pass, and know where that will show up in relation to the image

Wenn das mal nicht der Lasercutter für den #Makerspace ist 🤩🤩
Jetzt brauche ich selbst nur noch die Fortbildung dazu, aber zum Glück sind die Technik- & NwT-Lehrkräfte am Start 😃

Zusammen mit @colibri.bsky.social habe ich sechs Geschichtenwürfel für den #Religionsunterricht gezeichnet. Diese habe ich mit dem #Lasercutter gefertigt. Der großartige @freh.bsky.social macht nun eine digitale Variante davon für den Einsatz im Unterricht. 😊💙 Wie wunderbar ist das #bluelz bitte?

Woah!!! If I may ask, is this done via lasercutter? If so how do you get the different shades of color? It really makes the luffy and db art pop!

This little display stand is an experimental prototype inspired by having made some tiny rechargeable lights. Lit from below, the 1-inch acrylic cube transmits the light to provide under-lighting for whatever sits on top of it.

A one-inch clear acrylic cube sits in a small square layered walnut stand, which lights the cube and the 42 millimeter 20-sided die sitting on top of it from below. The die is a swirl of two shades of blue with metallic copper numbers. Shown against a defocused background of handmade paper with fiber inclusions. Side view.

Have access to a LaserCutter (maybe a library, school or #Maker space) & always wondered how you can make a simple box enclosure for a project? Here's a lesson on using the handy MakerCase website, plus Adobe Illustrator for adding additional cuts and engraving details. youtu.be/col-nC4-xTE?...
