Herbert W. Franke
 

Herbert W. Franke is an early computer artist creating computer graphics and early digital art since the late 1950s.

Mondrian (1979)

“An interactively controlled, dynamic program, developed by Herbert W. Franke in 1979 for the TI 99/4 from Texas Instruments. In addition to the interactive mode, an automatic endless run was possible, in which the sounds as well as the shapes and the colors ran according to special algorithms, added by a random generator. The original computer and the software module is donated to "Zentrum für Kunst und Medien ZKM" in Karlsruhe.”

The Pattern Guild X 3rd Rail Clothing Collaboration
 

We have had the great pleasure of collaborating with the excellent 3rd Rail Clothing on a brand new all over printed t-shirt. We are extremely pleased with the finished result and have been blown away by the attention to detail they have given at every stage of the project.
The t-shirt will be up for grabs in a competition they are running before it becomes available to buy, we will be posting a link in the next few days once it goes live.

Here are some photos from the different process stages.

Stage 1: Panel Printing

The design is printed onto a lightweight white jersey t-shirt fabric in two layers using water based inks.

Stage 2: Pattern Cutting and Assembly

The t-shirt template is laid out and marked before cutting begins, the panels are then sewn together and the ribbing is added at the very end.

Stage 3: The Final Product

The finished project is a limited edition t-shirt that comes with a screen print and is packaged in its own custom box.

The t-shirt: Two colour, water-based print each garment is made from screen printed fabric panels.

The print: 2 colour screen print on Southbank Smooth measuring 30cm x 24cm.

The box: Die cut archival board with 2 colour screen printed sleeve.
