Inspired by the traditional Chiaroscuro woodblock printing techniques of the 16th century, we have explored the use of producing relief print impressions as a means to evaluate the surface rendered with 2.5D and 3D printing technologies. This work b... Read More about An exploration of alternative computer aided methods for multi-colour woodblock printing.

The development of methods for the reproduction of texture in digitally printed artworks (2014)
Book Chapter
McCallion, P. (2014). The development of methods for the reproduction of texture in digitally printed artworks. In P. L. Harrison, E. Shemilt, & A. Watson (Eds.), Borders and Crossings: The Artist as Explorer. Dundee: Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, University of Dundee

Currently the reproduction of digitally printed works is divided between onscreen (RGB) representation of colour and the colorimetric translation through an imaging pipeline to a printing device (CMYK). As computational models for image analysis are... Read More about The development of methods for the reproduction of texture in digitally printed artworks.

Continuous tone colour printing in two and a half dimensions through a combination of 19th century analogue methodologies and 3D printing (2013)
Book Chapter

This paper proposes a contemporary method of continuous tone colour printing based upon the Nineteenth Century printing process of Woodburytype as developed by Walter Bentley Woodbury in 1865. Woodburytype was the only truly continuous tone printing...
