Color snapshot of a man wearing shorts, a basketball jersey, and a baseball cap seated in a crowded New York street scene at night. He's in front of a well-illuminated old-fashioned Singer sewing machine table, looking at his phone.

"Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and as gorgeous as a Caravaggio."
Vogue did an interview with him: https://www.vogue.com/article... and this is his website: https://www.tattoodcloth.com; his embroidery machine is, he says, 104 years old.

an elderly man with close-cropped hair wearing a light blue cardigan smiles as he holds up an electronic collage piece. It's of a stylized 1990s Ford dashboard, with a glowing green digital clock showing "3:10" and a flashing red "AIR BAG" warning.
I just found out that my friend and mentor, J.D. (Dan) Larson, passed away. He was found unresponsive by a neighbour. He was 91 years old.
Dan had a long career in high-energy physics. After a PhD at Caltech, he developed particle accelerator technology at Oak Ridge and Argonne. In the 1990s he stepped away from research to care for his elderly parents in Independence, MO. He had been in poor health for the last couple of years, and died in the home he'd been born in. Dan was my mother-in-law's companion.
This picture was taken in December 2014, and Dan is holding up a collage my partner made for him to thank him for taking her to the airport in the middle of the night (hence the "3:10" clock). Dan drove a very well-used 1990 Ford station wagon, which had many sensors broken or failing. The airbag light was constantly flashing, as did the indicator in the collage. A tremendously precise man, it didn't bother Dan that his gas gauge was broken: he knew exactly how many miles he got on a full tank.
I'll miss him.

I am very sorry Stewart, may his memory be a blessing.
@jessamyn Thank you!
(I was just thinking of you yesterday: I spent most of the day in a barn in rural Ontario that had an absurd collection of huge old computers in it, including some very impressive Data General big iron.)

My condolences. To live in hearts that love is not to die.
.
I feel I would have liked to have met and spent some time with Dan. So sorry he is gone.
I'm sorry for your loss. May his memory be a blessing.
Thanks, all. He was a good 'un.
@Argie It was hard not to spend a long time with Dan. No matter how hard you'd try to get him to talk about physics days (he was at Caltech while Feynman was, but Dan was all about experimental HE physics, not theoretical) or even his early computing days (he used a IBM 650 in the late 1950s), he'd want to tell you how he kept his salvaged lawn mower going out of bits he found in the neighbour's trash.
The most Dan moment I remember was when he was helping my MIL plan new railings around her roof deck. The house (1870s) had a door onto the roof, but no rails, and the city demanded everyone put in railings. Dan rolls up with a big printout of measurements, all tabulated in 8-decimal place Fortran scientific notation. They were (of course) correct, but the contractor had never seen anything like it

"New York is a big, mean, wonderful, impatient city that has waited 53 years to celebrate the team it cares about most. Despite the reflexive swagger of its fanbase — “Knicks in four!” became a rallying cry across the boroughs this year; then “Knicks in five!” when they lost a game — it was still nearly impossible to process, in the hours after its N.B.A. championship, that any of this had happened.
When New York comes together — really comes together — it is often in response to something tragic: 9/11, Sandy, Covid. Part of the magic of this run was the notion that uncomplicated joy was also an option. At least every 53 years or so." - Matt Flegenheimer

painting of forest undergrowth, reduced to green dots with some explosions of yellow at the top of the painting. the trunks of two trees are also visible.
I recently saw this painting in Amsterdam, another one rather similar in Utrecht and another also glorious one in Otterlo (NL).

If you like van Gogh and cycling and are thinking of going to Europe I can really recommend the Kröller-Müller museum in Otterlo!
It's in the middle of a national park. Lots of van Gogh, but also pointillism etc. And the only way to get to the museum is by free share bicycle.

It's done. I installed everything this morning, and within about 10 minutes, neighbors started coming by to play.
This is just me (my wife shot the vertical video) plinking around.
I'll post a bunch of process photos and notes on the blog and add a link to that here eventually, but as of today, I'm really pleased with the sound quality from the resonators.
It's lovely having soft tones float up through the living room window as random people stop by to make random music.
It's the whole reason why I built the thing in the first place.

Love this so much! The open access, the DIY street art nature of it, and the dreamy notes drifting up for you to enjoy. Great idea and top work 😊♥️💯
Perhaps a xylophone virtuoso will pay a visit one day, and you'll suddenly hear some masterful melodies floating into your living room.
Love it! I love my wind chime that has similar sound qualities.

Thanks for the kind words, all. Pretty sure this is a Good Thing, but we former Big City dwellers occasionally fret about Something Bad Happening to it.

Screenshot of some font samples, including the classic Mac system font Chicago, here called "Chicago15", used for all menus, window bar titles, system messages, and so on for Mac systems 1-7.5. There is "Chicago30", which is a 2x upscale from Chicago15. Below them are "Monaco11" and "Monaco15", the sans-serif monospace font which has been a default system font from the very first Mac through today, over 40 years later, albeit looking very different due to how much the technology has changed.
...a kind soul has made the effort of compiling various dumps people have made of old Macintosh system fonts (and other user-inaccessible fonts, such as "eWorld Tight 18"!), including bitmap and early OpenType fonts, and released them as uniform FontFactory and Truetype files.
There are hundreds of fonts and variations here. In the days before live onscreen vector graphics each size had to be drawn separately, so they look different in ways you can't replicate just by up/downscaling one font.

Chicago15 is my madeline.

Yes! I have ChiTown light but it's aliased and smoothed unless you use it at pt11 or what have you.
I collected so many fonts back in the day, it was like unlimited funding for the candy store.
Somehow/somewhere I got the very earliest Chicago outline font and overused it to an extreme extent

Built on an airplane tug frame according to the steward caring for the vehicle. Has a lower and upper deck for lounging, projecting music system, several hundred watts of LEDs, and powered by two propane alternators and an ungodly amount of lithium ion batteries. Did not get a chance to see it lit up since it was blazingly bright out today.

Frame grab from an informercial for the Whip-o-Matic, a Ron Popeil non-electric mixer designed to whip cream, beat eggs, and mix batter. The Whip-o-Matic is shown with several dishes made using the product, including a meringue pie, a souffle, a salad (presumably the dressing was mixed in the device), and a desert, probably a berry crumble, with a whipped topping.
When a problem comes along, there’s got to be a better way!
Is it really automatic if you have to turn a crank?

This a couple of days ago. Nearing completion. It’s one of the few shots where the scissor lift isn’t in the way. Since then, I’ve done a lot more work and added lots of lines. Today I decided it to be finished. Tomorrow we’re going to add a top coat.
And on Saturday, there is going to be an official opening and neighborhood party, because two other murals in my neighborhood accidentally have been finished in the last two months as well. So we decided to team up our festivities.
If you’re in Rotterdam on Saturday, June 13, drop by at the corner of Assendelftstraat and Adamshofstraat. 15 PM sharp!
On Google Maps, you can still get a glimpse of what the previous rather dilapidated mural looked like. Nobody was happy with it:

@joost thanx! I have to add I did take a little the most favorable spot to take a picture from. If you stand right in front of it a rather small tree is in the way. I do hope it won’t get too big 🙂
It’s so cute because there’s a school on the square as well, and every day these primary school kids come by and they all look at the mural for minutes and minutes, inspecting all the creatures and flowers I have put into it. It’s super rewarding.

@poorusher @joost I just googled a bit and it seems like there is just one single rather bad mural of a kapsalon in an outskirt of Rotterdam (Spijkenisse). It would be so much fun to make a gigantic and glorious one somewhere in the middle of town! (on top of that, this is the kind of thing that you could probably actually find funding for)
@poorusher I see I'm consistent in my lack of appreciation for kapsalon. :-)

An angular aluminum tube frame 8 feet long stands on 4 short tube legs set into a lawn in front of a pale green 1929 house against a blue sky.
(previously: https://www.xylovan.com/xylovan/)
I’ve dreamed of installing the big xylophone in front of the house ever since we moved in five years ago.
My son and I finally picked up the all instruments from storage in LA and brought them home in January. I have another project in the works using keys from the other big keyboard - details to come as it comes together.
Over the past few weeks I polished up all the keys, built new resonators, and rebuilt the top end of the frame to fix the ugly gap that used to be there to allow it to mount cleanly on the van’s flanks. It’s a lot purtier now.
This morning I dug holes for the four legs with a posthole digger and then lowered the frame into place with the help of friends and neighbors.
I plumbed and leveled things with the frame parallel to the little slope in front of the house ( at a nice, playable 40-degree angle), set the legs in place with small stones to steady them, and poured in and then doused a bag of quickset concrete for each.
Tomorrow I mount the new resonators and reinstall 2-1/2 octaves worth of aluminum keys.
It’s happening. I’m stoked.

A guy stopped by during the xylophone installation this morning to gawp at the big frame and said “My kid’s gonna love this, we always stop and play on those (the gongs).”

@joost (puts on pedant cap) Actually, it's a grotesque. Technically it can only be called a gargoyle if it acts as a drain spout. The word "gargoyle" comes from the Old French gargouille, meaning "throat" or "gullet".

Business sign for Heaven's Touch auto detailing, where the vinyl wrap the sign is made of is too large for the board it's mounted to, so parts of some of the words are not visible.
This detailing place near me changed brands a while back, but i just noticed how un-detail-oriented their sign design is (aside from being plain ugly).
The blue "T" blends into the dark background enough that my first thought was the name was Heaven's Ouch.
@dreyfusslugado Same, but then it dawned on me that it would actually work pretty well if they wanted to expand to the hail damage repair market.
