This episode was recorded on-site at TAPPI's 2025 Student Summit in St. Petersburg, FL. More than 300 attendees—including pulp and paper engineering students from 13 different universities—enjoyed panel discussions, a Career Fair, and Engineering Challenge, and so much more. We asked students to "take the mic" to host their own interviews and share their unique voices.First up, Western Michigan University students Parker Langellier and Toby Archer interview Dr. Med Byrd, Professor and Undergraduate Coordinator for the Paper Science and Engineering program at North Carolina State University.  "The paper process is very unique, very specific, and—let's face it—delightfully funky," Dr. Byrd tells our hosts, as they explore what makes pulp and paper such an amazing career choice.Next, veteran Student Summiteers Tanner Stogner and Michael Reuss interview first-time Summit attendees Conyers Preveaux and Gavin Knight. All four are students at Auburn University in Auburn, AL. As one student comments, "You see familiar faces all around. It's really nice that we have 300 people here and we all want the same thing: to grow our industry." This is the first of two episodes hosted by student volunteers at the 2025 Student Summit.

Today, we explore the disappearing art of Buddhist papermaking in India, which is only practised by less than 10 Tibetan households in a remote village in Arunachal Pradesh. Invisible to the observer, each plain sheet of paper, painstaking handmade over several days, carries inscriptions preserving the Monpa tribe's history, memories of migration, and their religious and ecological roots. We ask ourselves what we can do as travellers, to extend the life of dying local traditional artforms. If you liked this episode, do consider rating the show on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.

Mokuhanga becomes a part of those who open themselves to its possibilities. It draws you in as an art form, with its seeming simplicity, and guides you on a profound journey of exploration. One of the strengths of mokuhanga as a practice is its ability to harmonize with other artistic and academic endeavors, enriching one's life in many ways.   On this episode of The Unfinished Print, I speak with William Mathie, a teacher and relief printmaker based in Pennsylvania. We discuss Bill's discovery of mokuhanga in the 1980s and how his academic and artistic journey in printmaking evolved, leading him to rediscover mokuhanga later in life. Bill and I delve into his personal mokuhanga teachers, his work on the Pennsylvania Print Symposium in 2006, his printmaking philosophies, his time at the First International Mokuhanga Conference in Awaji and Kyoto, and we also explore his own mokuhanga work, materials, making tools and how he views mokuhanga through an academic lens.   William Mathie - website, Instagram   Guarding The Cheese    The golden age of mokuhanga is generally considered to be during the Edo period (1603-1898), when the art of color woodcut flourished in Japan.

...in which we take a Dales Way wander downstream from Cowan Head to Burneside to explore the long history of paper-making on the River Kent. In the company of paper manufacturer and fell-runner Mark Cropper, Chair of the six-generation family business James Cropper plc, we rewind the centuries to when 50 or more mills spanned the Kent, processing everything from wool to snuff. Entering the packhorse age, we learn about the growth of the provincial book trade and the growing demand for a new kind of 'clean' paper. Leaving the valley floor, we visit the cow byre-housed Paper Foundation to immerse ourselves in the centuries-old craft of paper making. Arriving at the heart of the family business in Burneside, we explore the cutting-edge mills that today make the paper not only for Armistice Day poppies and packaging for many of the world's leading luxury brands, but also next-generation 'papers' destined for aircraft, supercars and wind turbines. Finally, looking across the pastures above Kendal, we reflect on Mark's ambition to rethink the landscapes of east Lakeland, and the emerging Penrith–Kendal wildlife corridor that will feature a heritage 'patchwork' of wood pasture, wildflower meadows and orchards, alongside traditional farming and food crops.

Grâce à Véronique Buist, artiste multidisciplinaire, la convergence de la broderie et du papier artisanal fait naître des œuvres bidimensionnelles foisonnantes de détails où le processus et le médium ne font qu'un. Autant sa pratique en fabrication de papier que la méticulosité de son langage visuel brodé et coloré confrontent notre perception et stimulent notre intuition. Dans son travail, la fibre textile est à la fois support, motif et sujet d'étude. Sensorielles et poétiques, ses œuvres et installations cultivent l'ambiguïté puisque figuratif et abstrait se côtoient et s'enracinent sans gêne à travers des paysages riches de sens et laissant place à une multitude d'interprétations. L'art de Véronique Buist est avant tout une invitation généreuse à dialoguer, un espace liminal où la conciliation est priorisée. Façonnées dans la lenteur, ses œuvres portent en elle l'héritage des femmes artistes qui ont travaillé le textile, mais aussi la certitude de la nouveauté. Rencontrée à l'atelier retailles sur le boulevard Saint-Laurent, l'artiste nous parle de ses réflexions, son parcours et nous présente les gestes qui rythment sa production.

Paper makers in Fabriano developed the use of wire-made signs as identifying marks in the Middle Ages. Today we call these impressions “watermarks”— the papermakers' logo and calling card. Find out more about the history and development of papermaking and watermarks in some of the oldest medieval paper mills and discover their use in identifying the provenance and production of medieval manuscripts and drawings.  Resources: Fabriano Paper in Library of Congress Collections TM 1181:  Carthusian Ordinarium for the Mass and Office

To Sheng-Ying Pao, the power of reframing CRISPR lies in what is absolutely ordinary: paper. In CRISPaper, Pao revisited a cultural past in the ancient art of papermaking. In ancient China, wild rice was used to make paper. Pao took rice stalks from plants edited with CRISPR and ground the fibers into pulp. She then poured the pulp over a mesh screen. Every time she dipped the screen into water, the plant fibers would lift and resettle on top of the mesh, eventually making paper. Through the genome-edited rice plant, an ancient practice was juxtaposed with cutting-edge technology. Series: "UC Berkeley News" [Science] [Arts and Music] [Show ID: 37388]

Over thousands of years, farmers painstakingly converted the wild rice plant into a staple crop. Today, researchers are using CRISPR to change genes to optimize grain yield. However, rice is more than food. In ancient China, it was used to make paper. Pao took rice stalks from plants edited with CRISPR and ground the fibers into pulp. She then poured the pulp over a mesh screen. Every time she dipped the screen into water, the plant fibers would lift and resettle on top of the mesh, eventually making paper.

Pao's meditative ritual of papermaking is a counterbalance to the strangeness of the source material. Series: "UC Berkeley News" [Health and Medicine] [Arts and Music] [Show ID: 37388]

On today's episode of H2OMG I take a trip to the studio of local papermaker and printmaker, Laura Post. And if you're wondering what papermaking has to do with water, well don't worry because we cover that pretty early in our talk, and, as it turns out, water is pretty important to papermaking.  Laura has also been experimenting with making paper from plants that are considered invasive in our North Texas environment, and you know we here at H2OMG are all about getting rid of non-native plants and replacing them with Native plants. They'll look better and require less water than non-native pants because, duh, they are native to this environment. Laura's website: https://www.laurarpost.com/ Laura's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/laurarpost/ Papermaking Workshop at BRIT (9/18/21): https://shop.brit.org/Papermaking H2OMG is brought to you by Fort Worth Water's Customer Engagement and Conservation groups.

Artist Angie Follensbee-Hall, who lives in Vermont, is a mixed media artist who makes her own paper as the base for her creations. She adds natural materials that she finds in her yard, then adds paint and other materials to the finished paper. Angie also teaches classes, particularly one called The Creative Process in Art, where she talks about how creativity is so vital to our well-being. She recently hung a gallery show of her handmade paper wall hangings. Show notes for all of these episodes can be found on my website at https://suzanneredmond.com/my-podcast/list-of-artists/

When Tarl Yarber last appeared on the show (#189), we got a behind-the-scenes look at his monster house flipping business.He was doing a lot of volume, but here's the catch: he was stressed out and unhappy. Plus... with zero rentals to his name, he had to keep spinning the hamster wheel – "feeding the machine" – to make any money.Today's show is about a big mindset shift, and the systems and teams Tarl put in place to create a business that truly serves him, rather than the way around... and allows he and his wife to travel 200 days a year while working on his business rather than in it.We cover a lot of topics here, from high-level success principles to the specific real estate investing actions you can take – today – to adopt a more intentional and focused approach to building longterm wealth.Lastly – Tarl's an exceptional networker, and the guys discuss the importance of meeting up with other rockstar investors even if the pandemic is preventing you from doing it in person.So... how do you do that?Well, Tarl's hosting a virtual conference September 18-19, and he's offering a 50% discount to BiggerPockets Pro members (check your email). This isn't a series of webinars, either... You'll be able to actually meet up with other attendees through online breakout groups, so it solves for the biggest challenge most investors are facing right now.Follow this link to http://virtualwealthexpobp.com/ to snag your ticket today!In This Episode We Cover:The many advantages of the Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat (BRRRR) StrategyCreating multiple exit strategies when BRRRR'ingWhy sketchy tax deductions can hurt your longterm wealthDesigning your real estate investing strategy to fit your desired lifestyleHow Tarl and his wife mapped out their vision on butcher paperMaking a "To Do" List and a "To Don't" ListWhy businesses need to be able to "scale down" in times like theseAnd SO much more!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets PodcastBiggerPockets BusinessBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets Podcast 365: Ret.

This episode of the Ground Shots Podcast features a conversation with craftsfolk Brien Beidler and Mary Sullivan at the off-grid rural Idaho homestead of Jim Croft and Melody Eckroft during their summer 2019 ‘Old Ways of Making Books' class. Brien, Mary and I sat down at the end of a three week workshop period where we all had different roles as both teachers and students during Jim and Melody's yearly or bi-yearly ‘Old Ways of Making Books' class. Brien and Mary are highly skilled bookbinders who came to assist Jim Croft and also continue to learn and be mentored by him. I've mentioned the old ways class on the podcast several times and posted about it on the blog over the years. Alyssa Sacora and I talk about the Old Ways class on the podcast, here. I posted a photo diary three years ago of my time at Jim and Melody's homestead, here. I posted a recent photo diary documenting the hide tanning portion of the class from this summer, here. ********************************************* From the beginning, Brien Beidler has been inspired by historic bindings, and is consistently delighted by their ability to harmonize fine craftsmanship, quirky but elegant aesthetics, and evidence of the hands that made them. Though traditionally structured and bound with integrity, Brien's bindings seek ways to create new compositions and juxtapositions of these historic precedents. Naturally, a healthy love of the tools of the trade followed suit, and with the generosity and encouragement of toolmaking legends Jim Croft and Shanna Leino, Brien also creates a limited assortment of specialized hand tools for bookbinding and its related trades. Over the last nine years Brien has taken and taught a variety of bookbinding and toolmaking workshops, and is an active member of the Guild of Book Workers. In the fall of 2016, he and his wife upped their roots in Charleston, South Carolina and set up shop in Bloomington, Indiana, where Brien works from his home studio with Wren, his curmudgeonly Brittany. ***************************************** Mary Sullivan grew up in Nashville, Tennessee and was one of those children who always seemed to be making something. After completing her BA in Fine Art from Maryville College in 2006 she worked as a designer and printer at the legendary Hatch Show Print, one of the country's oldest continually operating letterpress poster shops in Nashville, TN. After several years absorbing the history, materials, and tools of the trade she left Nashville temporarily to pursue an MFA in book arts at the renowned University of Iowa Center for the Book in Iowa City, Iowa.  Over the next 3 years she studied bookbinding, paper-making, printmaking, calligraphy, and book repair and was taught by some of the most respected practitioners in my field. Upon completing her MFA in Book Arts in 2014, she moved back to her hometown in Nashville and founded Crowing Hens Bindery, where she designs, makes, and sells everything from blank books to letterpress printed stationery, decorative papers, art prints, and tools; all made by hand, one at a time.   In this episode of the podcast, we talk about:   how Brien and Mary met the bookbinder and papermaker Jim Croft and how he affected their relationships to bookbinding, printmaking, papermaking, and craft in general. how learning about bookbinding and craft processes at Jim and Melody's homestead in northern Idaho is unique because of their land-based lifestyle how Jim Croft's books are modeled after medieval era books, but are unique to him and the landscape of northern Idaho the scavenge nature of Jim Croft's craft process Brien talks about his focus on bookbinding, toolmaking etc. and his preference for making his books and tools accessible Mary speaks on her work of bookbinding, printing, and art making; as well as her graduate school research on paper-making production how industrialization affects the slow craft of bookbinding especially when using materials from the land and doing the process by hand and with the focus of quality books in mind the effects industrialization has on the consumer's expectations of perfectionism, something that didn't always exist in bookbinding and paper-making historically some bookbinding history the responsibility of carrying on the trade of bookbinding and not losing the knowledge of how to make different styles of books how capitalism affects our understanding and treatment of books some talk on the value of art vs. craft in our culture Links: Jim and Melody's website, where you can contact them about future classes out in Idaho (calling or writing letters is best): https://cargocollective.com/oldway Brien's website: https://www.beidlermade.com/ Brien's instagram: @bhbeidler http://www.instagram.com/bhbeidler Mary's website: https://www.crowinghensbindery.com/ Mary's instagram: @crowinghensbindery http://www.instagram.com/crowinghensbindery Penland School of Craft: https://penland.org/ Friends of Dard Hunter paper-making conference: https://friendsofdardhunter.org/conference University of Iowa Center for the Book: https://www.iowacenterforthebook.org   Support the podcast on Patreon to contribute to our grassroots self-funding of this project.  Support the Ground Shots Project with a one time donation: paypal.me/petitfawn (include your email so I can send you a thank you note!!)  Our website with backlog of episodes, plant profiles, travelogue and more: http://www.ofsedgeandsalt.com  Our Instagram page @goldenberries Join the Ground Shots Podcast Facebook Group to discuss the episodes Subscribe to our newsletter for updates on the Ground Shots Project Theme music: 'Sweat and Splinters' by Mother Marrow Produced by: Opia Creative

Lynn Sures is a Maryland-based artist who works with handmade paper in a variety of ways. Lynn tells me how she first discovered that paper was made by hand while reading the book Papermaking by Dard hunter, and that she assumed that nobody on earth made paper by hand anymore (she was wrong!). We talk about her teaching philosophy and her work with pulp painting. And we discuss the paper she makes to draw on (she says if you make your own paper, it isn’t scary to draw on a blank sheet). She describes one paper she took to Africa with her on a Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship. Lynn has spearheaded several unique papermaking efforts, including the Pulparazzi and the National Collegiate Handmade Paper Art Triennial. And she was recently elected president of Friends of Dard Hunter, the national papermaking organization that was founded to preserve Dard Hunter’s collection and currently meets annually in a different part of the country.

Drew Cameron is a papermaker and artist based in San Francisco. He rediscovered his interest in the craft of hand-papermaking after returning from his enlistment in the U.S. Army with a deployment in the war. Cameron traveled to Iowa to participate in several workshops and class visits in support of Hancher's recent production of My Lai. In this conversation with Micah and Chuy, recorded before a small audience on Monday, March 19th, Drew Cameron shares how he believes Combat Paper can open a deeper understanding between people and expand our collective beliefs about military service and war. Papermaking, for Drew Cameron, is a community-driven process and art form, which he facilitates with others through workshops as Combat Paper. This papermaking technique, and the workshops that Cameron facilitates, provide an opportunity for veterans and their communities to transform military uniforms into handmade paper, prints, books and artwork. He has facilitated these workshops across the United States for over a decade while also creating and exhibiting his own studio work. His artwork can be found in over forty public collections including the Library of Congress. For more information, visit https://www.combatpaper.org/.

Lecture 551 (18 July 2012)

Drew Cameron is a second-generation hand papermaker, trained forester and former Army soldier. He co-founded the Combat Paper Project and has been facilitating workshops with veterans and the community in which they transform military uniforms into handmade paper, prints, books and art since 2007. The portable workshop has reached thousands of people throughout the country in 29 states and more than 125 workshops. His work is represented in 33 public collections and has been shown numerous times including at the Corcoran Gallery, Courtauld Institute, Library of Congress, Museum of Contemporary Craft and Craft and Folk Art Museum among others. Combat Paper is now operating in four locations: New York, New Jersey, Nevada and California with open and ongoing programming. Drew is based in San Francisco at Shotwell Paper Mill and continues to practice papermaking, teach and encourage others to do the same. About Combat Paper Coming home from war is a difficult thing. There is often much to account for as a survivor. A new language must be developed in order to express the magnitude and variety of the collective effect. Hand papermaking is the language of Combat Paper. By working in communities directly affected by warfare and using the uniforms and artifacts from their experiences, a transformation occurs and our collective language is born. Through papermaking workshops, veterans use their uniforms worn in service to create works of art. The uniforms are cut up, beaten into a pulp and formed into sheets of paper. Participants use the transformative process of papermaking to reclaim their uniforms as art and express their experiences with the military. The Combat Paper Project is based in San Francisco, CA with affiliate paper mills in New Jersey, New York and Nevada. The project has traveled to Canada, England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Kosovo providing workshops, exhibitions, performances and artists' talks. Combat Paper is made possible through the collaborative effort of artists, veterans, volunteers, colleges and universities, art collectors, cultural foundations, art spaces, military hospitals and installations. Through ongoing participation in the papermaking process, we are broadening the traditional narrative surrounding the military experience and warfare. The work also generates a much-needed conversation between veterans and civilians regarding our collective responsibilities and shared understanding in war. http://veteranpodcast.com/009

How to make handmade asian paper

Local artist and naturalist Heather Griffin will facilitate a series of interactive Children's Workshops at Bainbridge Island's Bloedel Reserve on July 9th, 10th, and 11th.  The workshops, on Papermaking, Bookbinding, and Nature Mandalas, will be divided into two classes each day: one for children 6-8 and the other for children 9-12.  Prentice Bloedel has said that the stated purpose of  the Bloedel Reserve is to provide “a place to experience the bond between people and nature.”   In this podcast Heather Griffin explains how the children's workshops reflect Bloedel's philosophy to BCB host Lyssa Danehy deHart.   Griffin also describes the specific activities and how each will help children connect art and nature.  Youthful participants in the Bloedel workshops will learn creative ways to respond to the natural world while at the same time having fun exploring the Reserve's amazing environment. The Workshops are fully explained and easily registered for on the Bloedel Reserve website: www.bloedelreserve.org/event-calendar/workshops/childrens-workshops Credits: Host and Audio Editor: Lyssa Danehy deHart; BCB ferry music by Dogfish Bay Studios; What's Up music splash: Dave Bristow.  

Catherine Frood shares her insights into how the team at St Cuthberts Mill have been creating watercolour paper since the 1700's. Every single sheet of their World renowned papers such as Bockingford, Saunders Waterford, Millford, and more recently Somerset and Bockingford papers for printmaking, inkjet, and digital fine art are all carefully crafted and finished by hand, using traditional paper making techniques at their factory in the ancient Cathedral City of Wells in the southwest of England. #interview #watercolour #StCuthbertsMill #Bockingford #SaundersWaterford #Milford #CatherineFrood #art #Painting #watercolor #WatercolourPaper #Paper

Dr Elaine Leong (Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, Berlin) Paper slips, notebooks and health management. Dr Helen Smith (University of York) Paper Technologies Abstracts Paper slips, notebooks and health management Dr Elaine Leong. Upon her death in 1688, Margaret Boscawen of Tregothnan, Cornwall, left bundles of loose paper slips and six paper notebooks of different shapes and sizes all filled to the brim with useful medical and household know-how. From gardening advice to recipes for particular cures to lists of beneficial distilled waters to external indices correlating to Boscawen’s printed medical books, the notebooks and slips contain and represent the wide scope of her practical knowledge. Focusing on Boscawen’s collection of paper notebooks and paper slips, I examine how one woman created and organized her collection of practical know-how and argue that Boscawen utilized the materiality of paper, pen and ink to categorize and codify household practical knowledge. Paper Technologies Dr Helen Smith. This 'paper' explores the use of what we might broadly term paper technologies in early modern England, from fold-out diagrams and volvelles to do-it-yourself death masks and decoupage. By turning attention to the formation and deformation of paper (and its use as a conceptual as well as practical tool), I hope to suggest the significance of paper as a flexible technology across a range of contexts, and to argue that paper does not simply receive the imprint of meaning but participates in the construction and articulation (not least in the sense of being 'distinctly jointed or marked') of knowledge.
