Specially bound copies of a new book by Hiroko Karuno, "Kigami and Kami-ito", the results of years of study in the traditional Japanese method of making paper thread from handmade paper. This thread has been used to weave "shifu" cloth for kimonos and other textile items since at least the 17thC. Hiroko wanted us to create a few copies of the book bound in her shifu, three versions of which are on view here. The creation of the cloth alone, first the thread, which can be dyed with such things as gardenia seeds, loquat leaves and Japanese chestnut skins, and then the weaving into 6' lengths about 14'' wide took several months of meticulous work. You can imagine that this supplied a nervous moment when cutting the lengths up for making the cases. Paperback copies of this extraordinary work are available at The Paper Place on Queen St. in Toronto or from The Japanese Paper Place.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaTd06MWTALRc_rSAp__SdzyJsG19aed2M6vDxxULd_m2E4lI86-AoBOfpNElSTy_0CzbAcSxEiJnnVpQcmBKlnh65A9EfDrVVS4-UVham9RsZPfB7BWdymooK39c-4tfSiA57EdnGlV2a/s1600/IMG_1764.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaTd06MWTALRc_rSAp__SdzyJsG19aed2M6vDxxULd_m2E4lI86-AoBOfpNElSTy_0CzbAcSxEiJnnVpQcmBKlnh65A9EfDrVVS4-UVham9RsZPfB7BWdymooK39c-4tfSiA57EdnGlV2a/s1600/IMG_1764.jpg" height="305" width="320" /></a></div>

A millimetre style German case binding with Japanese paper trim at the head and tail edges. I supplied my <span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">paste papers for the covers and particularly enjoyed the apocalyptic landscape of the one second from the right. We sealed the washi trim with Klucel G and polished it up with a piece of beeswax that was in with the sewing supplies. I may redo the edges of mine with SC6000 as it works better. Very happy with the application of the class and their results. </span></div>donhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11007346339487394677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8322363752466296092.post-53465358035509103522014-11-25T08:00:00.000-08:002014-11-25T08:00:02.201-08:00The Brand New Pointyhead Press T-shirt!Available on Saturday 29 November at the OCAD Book Arts Fair.<br />

New from Pointyhead Press: the relaunch of "Fragmenta Disjecta". Fragmenta was the first Pointyhead Press publication in 1998. Now revised, redesigned, expanded and in colour, Fragmenta Disjecta, literally 'scattered fragments', a spoof on rare book catalogues, was put together by me and my colleague Reg Beatty as a submission to the 1998 Grimsby Wayzgoose Anthology. Our modest efforts, photocopied in black and white, resulted in the release of a policy statement on the production values of these contributions, to the effect that henceforth all such work must feature letterpress techniques. <br />
Now to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Press, Pointyhead has upped the production values considerably and while this new edition shows no signs of moving towards the letterpress end of things, we hope the new "Fragmenta" will provide an enjoyable experience to the reader. The attached picture displays the book arranged with the original objects.<br />

I chose one of my paste papers because I like my own cooking. Next week we start on our split boards binding. An old form but a good one.<br />

Devoted to historical and contemporary Islamic Art, the museum has extraordinary exhibition space and was showing some of its best stuff. There was everything from an enormous 15th C. carpet to a miniature book about 3" tall. I had been working on producing one of the exhibits for the opening, a series of flip books by Pakistani artist Bani Abidi and gladly accepted their invitation to the "soft" opening. The final preparations were still being completed- no labels yet on the exhibits, pieces of masking tape indicating the positions of as yet uninstalled work-but that took nothing away from the experience of this beautiful building. We wandered around for an hour or so, missed the tour of the glass roofed mosque as I had to get to work and finish the flip books!- and left altogether impressed. Definitely worth a look.<br />

<span style="background-color: white;">This from Isabel Tipton who was in my Coptic Bookbinding class last week. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">I casually mentioned that linen 25/3 cord thread was a common size for bookbinding </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">but that after 35 years of binding I didn't really know what the numbers referred to. </span><span style="background-color: white;">I </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">received this in an email yesterday and felt you all should know. Also I love such </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">beautifully clear expressions of this kind of highly specialized knowledge and vocabulary. </span><span style="background-color: white;">One day Pointyhead Press will publish a collection of this kind of writing. </span><span style="background-color: white;">Thank you Isabel for getting the ball rolling. To wit:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">"We were talking in class about the 24/3 linen thread. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">24 lea is 24 x 300 divided by 3 or about 2,000 yards per pound. Isn't knowing that going to make a big difference in your life? Cotton is 640 yards to the pound, same sort of figuring out."</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">"The standard measure of bulk linen yarn is the <b>lea</b>, which is the number of yards in a pound of linen divided by 300. For example a yarn having a size of 1 lea will give 300 yards per pound. The fine yarns used in handkerchiefs, etc. might be 40 lea, and give 40x300 = 12,000 yards per pound. This is a specific length therefore an indirect measurement of the fineness of the linen, i.e. the number of length units per unit mass. The symbol is NeL.<b>(3)</b> The metric unit, Nm, is more commonly used in continental Europe. This is the number of 1,000 m lengths per kilogram. In China, the English Cotton system unit, NeC, is common. This is the number of 840 yard lengths in a pound.</span><br />

The papyrus text blocks were sewn in Ethiopian 2 needle, kettle stitch style and covered in leather decorated with a design cut out of thin goatskin onlaid and laced onto the base leather with strips of vellum. Designs varied from Christian to Cabalistic, pagan to peonies. It always amazes me how much application people bring to the making of these beautiful, personal and quite impractical book forms. <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnkvIUBRFxmLJpU3lnCuQKnHQpq3jl8EiPso3DHOLjnDJaKCWc8l3230KYyyMDBdBGyWsIEyrces16ZQMfky8UiGeIbjSYN5xe9cYnUa3Yc-75dPcV-7YHudSnKRA-OcdaSfAoO51Dnha9/s640/blogger-image-1549801607.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnkvIUBRFxmLJpU3lnCuQKnHQpq3jl8EiPso3DHOLjnDJaKCWc8l3230KYyyMDBdBGyWsIEyrces16ZQMfky8UiGeIbjSYN5xe9cYnUa3Yc-75dPcV-7YHudSnKRA-OcdaSfAoO51Dnha9/s640/blogger-image-1549801607.jpg"></a></div></div>donhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11007346339487394677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8322363752466296092.post-60530250983238457472014-06-12T12:58:00.003-07:002014-06-12T13:02:49.621-07:002014 Griffin Poetry Awards<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The fabulous glamour of the bookbinding life made manifest in the best literary bun fight going. The Griffins do not fool around when it comes to a party. This one was no exception June 5 at The Distillery. I forget who won.<br />

a big order of paste paper requires teamwork. Marie prepared the colour, Don applied the paint, Laura and Marie shared combing duties, and the results filled the hall with men's pyjamas!<br />

Spotted in London during my recent trip to visit the rellies and attend the opening of "Inside Out" Contemporary Bindings of Private Press Books, a Designer Bookbinders exhibition (with one of my bindings in it). Above are a couple of pals reading the newspaper in a quiet spot in White Chapel and a poster for a show that I would have walked a mile to see if I had had a chance. I read all the "Biggles" books-my favourite was "Biggles Defies the Swastika!" Ripping stuff.<br />
<br />
Below is a shot of the show currently on until August 22 at St Bride's Institute. Worth a look if you are passing Fleet St. at Farringdon Rd.<br />

In other developments our intern from Paris's Ecole Estienne, Marie, started slaving away for us this week. She's here for a month and is doing nice work on a bit of everything. This should be fun. Today at lunch we all discussed the merits of McCain's curly fries. Apparently they are quite popular in France. Who knew? Welcome Marie.<br />

Crad Kilodney, absurdist street poet and grumpy person of long standing has died in Toronto. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It was great fun in the '80's to run into Crad selling his books on the sidewalk, usually with an enigmatic sign around his neck- my favourite said "POTTERY"- and I was able to purchase many of my favourites: Sex Slaves of the Astro-Mutants, Bang Heads Here Suffering Bastards, and "gainfully employed in limbo". Crad predicted in his 1973 book, "World Under Anaesthesia" that his death would be in Hungry Horse, Montana in 2025. He didn't make it.donhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11007346339487394677noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8322363752466296092.post-87065330034149592482014-04-11T12:51:00.000-07:002014-04-11T12:51:00.223-07:00New from Pointyhead - WINTER: Images from Testing Season<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

a few spreads from the new and almost complete book from Pointyhead Press. "Winter" is my contribution to the "Deer Press Travel Exhibition Project" soon to be launched into the world by Manu Beuchting. The mandate was a book 4"x4" on the subject of one of the 4 seasons. I was assigned Winter. <br />

<span style="font-family: 'Gill Sans';">In the past 30 or so years, seemingly whether time has permitted or not, I have occasionally caught myself taking this precious commodity away from my work as a bookbinder and restorer to produce what I have always called “my own” work. This has usually taken the form of design bindings, i.e. interpretative fine bindings of an existing text, and artist’s books in which I have acted as creator of both text and binding.<span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: 'Gill Sans';">The impetus has frequently been to take part in book arts exhibitions such as “The Art of the Book”, a major Canadian show mounted every five years by The Canadian Bookbinders and Book Artists Guild.<span> </span>And in recent years, I have had to sneak periods of up to a few weeks on the trot to take part in shows conceived and executed within the small community of letterpress printers, binders, calligraphers, and others committed to the book arts. These are my friends and colleagues.<span> </span>I have tried to spin the enormously creative contact available from such people as George Walker, Will Rueter, Margaret Lock, Susan Warner Keene, Nancy Jacobi and my studio partners, Reg Beatty and Kate Murdoch, into experiences that take me deeper into exploration of skills or new directions.<span> </span>These moments of stolen “me time”, as much as they are challenging and even infuriating, are as wonderfully luxurious and satisfying as an extended bubble bath.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Gill Sans';">Nevertheless the market for such work lies in the range between small and non-existent. So what is the point of this kind of larceny?<span> </span>Love of the materials, respect for collaborators, and the desire to “make”- that’s what makers do-all in the name of keeping books, in all their incredible variety, going strong. After all, the book is of course incomparably civilization’s greatest achievement.<span> </span>Let’s not forget that.<span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

A new binding for submission to the "Contemporary Bindings of Private Press Books Touring Exhibition 2014-15". "Tonge's Travels" was published by The Old School Press in Bath and features watercolour illustrations by John Watts. The original was a manuscript travel diary from 1857 recording Mr. George Tonge's boat trip through the Mediterranean. I used my paste papers cut into strips and onlaid onto the full calf binding to suggest both water and the notion of a hand-written document. I added a couple of Moleskine style touches including a pocket in the back which I supplied with paste paper "postcards" of sights along the route, and a foredge strap, here depicted lying in front of the open book. The show opens at St Bride's Church, Fleet St., London on May 14 of this year. See you at the opening!donhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11007346339487394677noreply@blogger.com0
