Hello from Switzerland

[BJ68]

Dear community,

I am interested in gum printing and other alternative processes.
My personal info:
I have a light chemistry background (abandoned study) but I am more practical. That´s the reason, why I work now as technician at a university. I am a member of a German chemistry board and made a few articles:

http://illumina-chemie.de/bis(25-di-t-butylphenyl)-34910-perylenbis(dicarboximid)-t3647.html

Sometimes I made workshops for children: http://illumina-chemie.de/cyanotypie-t3305.html#51294
and giant soap bubbles.

Here are my fist tries for
Gum printing

Welcome. Where are you in Switzerland? So much great scenery. Consider Pt/Pd as your next process - quite easy to do.

[Andrew O'Neill]

Nice colour gum oils. Welcome!
