17. Li Chen and Gerald Flynt of Small Works

Regan interviews Li Chen and Gerald Flynt, the folks behind a new print shop in Detroit called Small Works. They are commitment to keeping access to printing equipment as close to FREE as possible for their immediate geographic community. Letterpress is one part of their setup, but they also have risograph and regular old office printing equipment. They talk a bit about letterpress equipment, but also about some of the broader issues and questions in print culture today.  Here's some links from the conversation: The waltz design pilot tutorial that is amazing. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCB6wWI1XszQ57L5kO8l6Hw   Dafi Printing a new Poster https://vimeo.com/575715409   Small works scheduling page: https://calendly.com/smallworksdetroit   Small Works Website: https://smallworksdetroit.com
