Kouki Hirayama, the developer of the plaster paper

I just saw the tail end of subject story on NHK.

It looked interesting, but I can't find anything about it other than from this link: https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/tv/scienceview/201706200600/

Does anyone know more about this paper?
What would be the advantages of printing on a plaster based paper. Isn't that like swellable polymer paper?
I'm not sure. I just saw a slice of the story as it was ending. They were comparing the newly developed plaster paper to traditional inkjet print. The plaster paper had more pop and vibrancy, and under time/stress testing it held up considerably longer, not fading nearly as much.

That's why I'd like to know more. I'll try to look for it to play again.

Thanks. Think about it. We also print on ceramics in a way with papers coated with ceramic particles I believe, as well as film (Pictorico OHP).

True. True. I'm not sure what printing on plaster gets you over modern papers. But I am not a paper expert either...
 
I just remembered there are some inkjet grounds (variations of acrylic gesso, I believe) that are made to prep paper for inkjet printing. Would be fun to try if I had a Color Munki to profile the paper.

Thanks for sharing! The types of paper offered to us is truly staggering and makes fine art inkjet printing a very exciting hobby!
