Episode 18: Squeegee United Screen Printing: Art, Ad, or Alchemy

    • Visual Arts

In episode 18, Andy MacDougall reflects on the history and the future of an industry more diverse than many realize. From control panels and electronic interfaces to batteries and biomedical devices – even contributions to Allied victory in WWII – screen printing has always been so much more than decorated apparel. Moving forward, opportunities abound in active clothing, the Internet of Things, clean energy, and beyond. Linked by a common process, our community of squeegee draggers is often underappreciated, but just as influential as ever

All this and more on this episode of the “Art, Ad, or Alchemy?” podcast and companion column from the November/December digital edition.
