Here’s a lovely little film – more than a video because of its poignancy – about an old school German printing press, circa 1929, in constant use in Sao Paulo.

The press is so beautiful, and watching the artisans press the hand made wooden blocks into the ink, happily, remind me how along with technology comes loss.
