Through the tutorial it was identified that my question proposed was definitely valid and that I could write an essay on "How is printmaking used in contemporary graphic design?". However I need to consider how this question will work into a practical piece afterwards.
It was suggested that I could take something which is entirely digital and change it so it is in fact a printed version of something such as a letter pressed tweet. I actually managed to find work that already existed along the lines of this however most of the quotes were from Rupert Murdoch.

Something along the lines of this could prove the value of print and the by using the idea of craft it takes comments which are seen as disposable online as something to treasure when it is present on beautiful stock. These ideas need to synthesise the practical element of my project with the essay. I could perhaps take something which is meant to be only digital and create it into print using different production methods at Vernon Street print room.
