Graphic designers James Lowe and Alex Szabo-Haslam have launched a Kickstarter campaign to offer data visualisations and the cover of the Voyager Golden Record reproduced as gold-printed limited edition artwork.
Using time data generated by all sounds from The Golden Record, we have produced two data visualisations: one is a spiral-shaped object, mimicking the 12-inch disc; the other is a square made from strips of data. Printed in gold ink on fine paper stocks, these serves as partners to a reproduction of the original cover.

Using traditional, hand-pulled, silkscreen printing processes each design is lovingly crafted into a limited edition A2 print, signed and numbered by the artists. Although the handmade process leads to tiny imperfections, this is part of what makes each print unique.

Initially our target is to raise enough to cover a run of silkscreen prints. However, with enough support, we'll be able to offer backers artwork stamped with metallic gold foil.
