Printing machines feeding each other

Xavier Antin’s project entitled Just In Time, or A Short History of Production is quite interesting. Using 4 different printing technologies dating from 1880 to 1976, Xavier was able to divide the typical CMYK colors of a 42-page installation book so that only one color comes out of one printing machine/printer. The final book pages remind me of how sometimes newspaper images are misaligned and show Ben-Day dots.
