To extend my exploration of print from my 'Library of Babel' collages I am going to investigate the process of laser cutting relief and intaglio blocks from acrylic sheet. I have used the basic greyscale image taken from the collage and converted to a half tone bitmap at a coarse screen of 21 lines per inch. I have used this screen line count in order to keep a bold graphic impression from the original image. Additionally to keep laser cutting time to a minimum I have cropped the original image to a square format. Once I have the print blocks produced I will experiment with and consider, hand tinting of printed outcomes.
