Posted by PRINTERESTING on August 2nd, 2010 |  Thanks to everyone who came out on Friday for our Copy Jam! at the Printers’ Ball in Chicago. Some of the artists on the scene included Judge, Temporary Services, Jimmy Luu, Chad Kouri, Leslie Mutchler, and Jena Osman. A big thanks to all fifty artists who contributed work to Copy Jam! as well as our support crew (you know who you are), and Fred, April, and all the people at Poetry and Columbia College who made the Printers’ Ball happen. It was a crazy, busy night- this time around we made more than 500 copies!
We’ll be posting stuff throughout the week- a shop tour at the Columbia College Center for the Book, a walking tour of Printers Row, and other assorted miscellany. But for now, here are some pictures of Copy Jam! 2 (click for larger images).

Posted by PRINTERESTING on July 7th, 2010 | That’s right! We’re coming to Chicago for Copy Jam! 2: Text Edition! The good folks at The Printers’ Ball asked us if we’d be willing to do a Copy Jam! sequel and we just couldn’t resist. So we put together another line-up of fantastic artist/designers and are heading to the Windy City at the end of July for more xerographic fun. If you’re anywhere near Chi-town on Friday, July 30th, you should join us at the Printers’ Ball!

It’s time to announce the winner of our Copy Jam! T-shirt Contest. The goal was to guess how many copies we made during our Copy Jam! at Art in the Age. The crowd was steady for the entire three hours of the one-night event with an even mix of SGC conference attendees and local Philly art-goers in attendance. The final tally, checked, double-checked, and even triple-checked, was…
358 Copies!
Wow, right? That’s a lot of people! And two of our contest participants came within one of the magic number- our twelfth guesser Maria guessed 357 and our twenty-second guesser Becky T. guessed 359. Now technically we only said we’d give a T-shirt to the person who came closest without going over- that’s clearly Maria. But after some heated debate, we’ve decided to bend the rules and give a t-shirt to Becky T., too! Nice work, you two- way to pretty accurately guess how many people got copies at Copy Jam! Look for your t-shirt in the mail a few weeks after we get your addresses.
More than fifty people participated in the contest… to the rest, thanks for trying. You’re all winners in our book. We only wish we could give you all free t-shirts.
Posted by PRINTERESTING on March 30th, 2010 | - (Comments are closed) So we’ve decided to have a little contest to guess how many copies we made at our Copy Jam! last Thursday. We saved all of the tickets that were cashed in for copies and we’ve got our accounting department verifying the numbers. The prize will be a Copy Jam! t-shirt not to mention all the glory that goes with being officially recognized as a very good guesser. Anyone can enter but you only get one guess. If you came to the event, you can guess based on what you saw. If you didn’t come, you can guess based on the photos. How many people did we make copies for? The winner will be whoever guesses closest to the actual number without going over.
You can add your guess as a comment to this post.
We’ll be announcing the contest winner some time next week so get your guess in soon. You’ve got nothing to lose but you have a t-shirt to gain. Letting the guessing begin!
Posted by Jason Urban on March 30th, 2010 | Here’s another compilation of pictures from Thursday night’s Copy Jam! Many of these were taken by Julie Ahn from AITA and the rest were taken by Sarah Marshall and Jason Urban. Thanks again to our artists and everyone who came out to the event and special thanks to everyone who helped out- Julie, Laura, and the whole crew at AITA, Sarah, Jen, Holly Holly Hobby Hobby, Mike, etc. Needless to say that by the end of the night, Printeresting found a new respect for anyone who’s ever worked at Kinko’s.
 Always look for the Copy Jam! red stamp of authenticity. It verifies that you’ve got a “real” copy from the event.

Posted by PRINTERESTING on March 11th, 2010 | Just two short weeks til Copy Jam! For the event, we are producing a small-run, commemorative t-shirt that will be available for purchase. The shirts were beautifully printed by Philadelphia’s own Outlaw Print Co. Get ‘em while supplies last.
 We’ll be hanging out and making copies at Art in the Age from 6-9. It’s free and all are welcome! AITA is generously supplying bottles of their Root liqueur for all to sample at our event and will be hosting a Root Happy Hour next door at Charlie’s Pub from 8-10. Anyone up for an after party? It’s going to be fun so definitely stop by.
