Waveform silkscreen prints are a sound wave project on [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumino) by graphic designer Alex Szabo-Haslam. Formerly a techno and electronic music promoter, Alex has produced minimal waveform silkscreen prints visualizing the music of Daft Punk, Prodigy and Radiohead along with seminal tracks from his home town by artists such as The Human League and Heaven 17.

Each Waveform print is created by outputting and painstakingly redrawing [sound waves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sound-of-a-masterpiece) one bar at a time -- without tracing in Illustrator. All Waveform silkscreen prints use a range of GF Smith Colorplan stocks, as well as several metallic papers and fluorescent inks. This is the second edition, with several of the first edition Waveform silkscreen prints selling out last year.
