  • Bullseye Glass Co. / Classes & Special Events
    Bullseye Glass Co. | Classes & Special Events May to September 2012 • Emeryville, California From the Director Artist Klaus Moje at Resource Center Portland, 2007. What is Kiln-Glass? In 1974 three self-described “hippie glassblowers” started Bullseye Glass Company, a small factory for making specialty sheet glass in Portland, Oregon. While they initially focused on making colored sheets for use in stained glass, they aspired to do what had never been done before: to produce a palette of colored glasses tested to be compatible for fusing with one another for producing works in the kiln. By 1979 they had succeeded, but immediately ran into a challenge: they had created something remarkable for which almost no demand existed. Ever the innovators, they decided to embark on a long-term program of research projects working directly with artists to help pioneer and expand the technical, aesthetic and conceptual development of the field that is today known as kiln-glass. Kiln-glass is a term that describes an enormous range of techniques and outcomes that are radically more accessible than many other working methods, such as glassblowing, in which one must first develop basic physical skills for years before being able to effectively realize well-executed works. By contrast, many of the skills required for kiln-glass are things that most artists already possess: an understanding of design, composition, color theory, and the ability to conceive of layers of process and material application. And while kiln-glass does require basic knowledge of technical issues and nuances, these are readily obtained in short order through publications and curriculum that have been developed as an outgrowth of Bullseye’s years of collaboration with artists.

BOHEMIAN FACETED-SPHEROIDAL MOLD-PRESSED GLASS BEAD ATTRIBUTES: HYPOTHESIZED TERMINUS POST QUEM DATES FOR THE 19TH CENTURY Lester A. Ross Faceted-spheroidal mold-pressed beads have been manufactured Glass bead varieties and their attributes occasionally in Bohemia since the 18th century. Evolution of manufacturing have proven to be reliable as sensitive temporal markers technology has resulted in the creation of bead attributes that (e.g., Karklins 1993; Sprague 1983, 1985). Well-dated can readily be observed on beads from archaeological contexts. archaeological contexts containing faceted-spheroidal mold­ Many North American archaeological sites contain examples of pressed beads appear to be restricted to the second through this bead type; but few reports have identified the attributes, much fourth quarters of the 19th century.

It is certainly one of the greatest process inventions of the twentieth century. The float process is one of the most widely used methods for flat glass manufacturing as it ensures security, high quality and Keywords: productivity. From a historical point this innovation was the beginning of a revolutionary change in the Glass mass production of flat glass for the building and automotive sectors. More specifically this innovation Flat eliminates the traditional operations of rolling, grinding and polishing the glass surface while creating a Float high quality and inexpensive flat glass product. The first patent was applied for on December 10th, 1953 Patent History by Pilkington and Bickerstaff. This paper presents a brief discussion from the 1960s in a historical Technology perspective about this amazing discovery and the main patents related to it.
