Digital vs Analogue - help

[loco]

Go by a screen printed poster or art piece. Take a ditital photo of it and print it on the best digital printer you can find and compare them yourself. I bet you will see the loss of quality and then understand there's a big difference.

Like anything, quality cost money and or sweat

Whoever this is is totally fucking with you guys.

yup.

What major bits about the process am I missing? You claim I'm confusing things with assumptions, but you do not help dispel them. Why is that?

I tried. You weren't listening.

You can 'look inside' here. maybe there are some answers:

Please quote where you have explained how you think I'm wrong about my comparison with digital and analog sawtooth being aesthetically comparable. Please quote the major bits about the process that you think I'm not listening to.

I already have the book you suggest, but I do not recall it answering the questions I've asked. I find it strange that you offer a book to answer my questions when you seem to claim they have already been answered in this thread, but that I'm just not listening. I feel that you are suggesting this book to serve another purpose than to help me. I think you are perhaps trying to use authority to influence me and others to think you are in the right; while others in this thread are seemingly promoting that I'm a troll to create a bandwagon effect. The cause to these apparent behaviors I believe is due to the desire to prove and preserve ones social value in the group.

I hope you all take the time to carefully question this stuff and decide to help me.

Expose, just make your stuff in vector and be done with it. There will always be a difference between hand-drawn seps and digital seps. Maybe you are a master of vectorization and can somehow come up with a way to mask the fact that blown up or reduced in size vectorizing hand-drawn work loses the sense of proportion that shows the hand or maybe you don't care.

On another note, nobody cares about Andymac's standing in the group, he was always on the outer fringes of society anyway.

OK, you're not trolling. You are insane.

We all tried to help you. You're beyond help. At this point we all have decided to tell you to fuck off, because in addition to suffering from paranoid delusions, you are rude and condescending.

I'll start. Fuck off.

My questions do not deal with digital printers but digital graphics that are then screen pressed. I want to understand the aesthetic difference between an analogue graphic that is screen pressed compared to a digitalized version of the same graphic. By digitized I mean the original analogue graphic is scanned into the computer then put on a transparency and made in to a stencil to be screen pressed. Can you tell a difference between the two with the naked eye? If so, how? Can you tell if one version seems more beautiful than the other?

My last answer was not about digital printing. Define what you mean by analog graphic because I though I just answered this as well.
Analog to me means hand-drawn seps. They remain true to the scale that a hand works at. Your original question was about vectorizing graphics and blowing them up or reducing them.

My dad spent a ton of money on a serigraph and explained to me why it was better than a screen print. For reals. That happened.

It's very simple. Find out the difference between vector digital graphics (adode illustrator, Corel) and bitmap, jpeg (Photoshop) digital graphic. Vector graphic/ files can be inlarged as big as your file can be output with no loss of detail. Meaning that you ouput something let's say 4"x4" and the same file at 24"x24" and the detail / edge definition with be the same. Sharp and crisp. Now with bitmap, jpeg etc,.. it a different beast. Resolution is now a very important part of how good your detail / edge definition will output.

Learn the difference between the two and then come back and ask with a little homework behind what you are asking
