If anyone who picked one up at Flatstock could post some close-up pics I'd appreciate it. I dont think Ive ever seen an example of stochastic screenprinting before.

When color reproductions are made, the image is separated into its component colors by taking multiple photographs filtered for each color. One resultant film or plate represents each of the cyan, magenta, yellow, and black data. Color printing is a binary system, where ink is either present or not present, so all color separations to be printed must be translated into dots at some stage of the workflow. Traditional linescreens which are amplitude modulated had problems with moiré but were used until stochastic screening became available. A stochastic (or frequency modulated) dot pattern creates a more photorealistic image.


I'm even more confused after reading the description.

Hey, can someone tell me why I want one of these for $150? I like getting one of everything Mr. Horkey does, but $150 for a small print, is this thing extra special in person?

off the top of my head, ghengis tron, init fest, melvins blue, melvins pink, red isis, converge, purple neurosis,whale bone purple, and many others... I like to get one of each horkey I can...
I know you have more, but you don't need to rub it in. Horkey is definitely in my top 5 fav artists!

also, I was not asking how much this would flip for, I was asking why I'd want to pay $150 for a 12x14 horkey that doesn't compare to many of his recent prints that sold for 1/3 that price.
