Scholarly building: a zine: 'Absolute Units of Letterpress: Plus Rad Measurement Facts' Dec 1, 2025 • Amanda Wyatt Visconti I just published a 20-page standard-size, full-color zine, Absolute Units of Letterpress: Plus Rad Measurement Facts, co-created by me (Amanda Wyatt Visconti) and Shane Lin. “Absolute Unit”: An entity exceedingly pleasing to the eye & soul by virtue of unusual-for-its-kind square or stocky dimensions. Absolute Units are exemplars of: stability! solidity! abundance! confidence! A model for insisting we deserve at-homeness in our world. A righteous & unbothered certainty & a resistance to being pushed about by others. This zine spreads a feast of images of letterpress printing block, type, & press Absolute Units; accompanied by 6 mini-essays on neat measurement history and interesting, less-known contemporary measurement facts.
