Tin Can Labs is not just a maker of fine printing and art products. Here, the visual arts depend on a constant supply of new music, and groovy sounds. Occasionally I become obsessed with some new tool of art or music. The creative process that finally manifests these new tools usually follows a strict flowchart or road map. This process has many nodes and options that can completely abort the project or merely delay its progress indefinitely. Read More

8.5 x 11, Wausau 24 lb. stock, 70 tan and 70 ivory, two shades of brown ink, handset foundry type and carved linoleum block. Can’t wait to see Jeff James.
Thanks Alice! This one was a lot of fun!

I can play at least a simple song (often improvised) on most any musical instrument, as long as it has strings and frets. I’m way too uncoordinated to manage a drum set, and the utter simplicity of piano keys are baffling. But strings and frets seem to make sense. And that’s just about it. Oh wait: a kazoo. I can play a kazoo. Read More

Q: What happens when I sneak out of the house, and into the shop?
A: A proof of a new linoleum carving for a poster I am working on, and finally, new business cards. Thanks for the paper scraps, Tom!

My apologies if you are here, and what you see doesn’t seem familiar. I’m doing a little theme clean-up for a different project, and this is my test bed, or sandbox. Most links and content should work, it’s just gonna look a little goofy from time to time.
Thanks,
The management
New Host

Look different? Something missing? I had to change web-hosts over the weekend; on very short notice I might ad. I was so excited to leave the former host that I neglected to back up the content on the old site. Kind of like looking around at your home, appreciating what you have, and then burning it to the ground. Read More
