What the heck is one of my favorite guitar-playing, harmony-singing, songwriting hi ies, Graham Nash, doing at Macworld?
Most of you probably a ociate Graham with the folk-rock band, Cro y, Stills %26am Nash (and sometimes Young). But Graham wa 't at the Peachpit booth this week talking about music... he was talking about photography (his own, which is excellent, and others), as well as fine art digital imaging and printmaking.
Graham, along with R. Mac Holbert (C 's former road manager), conceived and founded Nash Editio in 1990 in order to develop methods of outputting Nash's digitally manipulated black and white photographs. Starting in the late eighties with a $125,000 IRIS 3047 Graphics Printer, which they heavily modified (warranty be damned!) in order to accommodate a wider range of papers, through their work today with E on 9800, 7800 and 4800 printers, Nash Editio is now recognized as the premier fine art digital print studio in the country, if not the world. Both Graham and Holbert were on hand after they oke to sign copies of their new book, Nash Editio : Photography and the Art of Digital Printing.
As a bit of a reformed hi ie myself, I was just ha y not to have to wade through clouds of pot smoke to get close to Nash here, as I have had to in some other venues.
