Super G Print Lab Fellow Jerstin Crosby Super G Print Lab is happy to announce the appointment of Jerstin Crosby as a 2016 Research Fellow. Jerstin recently moved back to the area after several years up north (Pittsburgh and NY). Here’s what he says about what he’ll be working on while at Super G in 2016: “I’m conducting research into the intersection of printmaking processes and moving images. The low res aesthetic produced through this unlikely combination works against evolving technological trends of ever-greater resolution and resembles the earliest days of film and video experiments. While at Super G I am working to connect the two mediums with DIY materials and historical subject matter into a new printed animation that we will present to the public at a later date.” We’re very excited to have Jerstin as part of the Super G research team. Here’s an example of one of his animations: See more of Jerstin’s work HERE
