What it is, and why now是什么,为什么现在

The risograph look borrows from the print process itself: two or three spot colours overprinted, deliberate misregistration, and grain that says ‘made on a machine, by a person’.Riso 的样子借自印刷工艺本身:两三个专色叠印、刻意的套版错位,以及那种"由机器、由人做出来"的颗粒。

It’s a material, not a filter是材质,不是滤镜

Limit yourself to two or three spot colours (fluoro pink and blue is the classic), overprint them for a third where they meet, offset the layers slightly, and add halftone grain. The imperfection is the finish.限制在两三个专色(荧光粉 + 蓝是经典),在它们相遇处叠印出第三色,层稍微错开,加半调颗粒。不完美就是收尾。
