Notes of today's meeting #63

Drawing of two cats in a meadow with some flowers and a bee.
Nothing special, it's a bit of a follow-up to the mural I recently posted, what with all the flowers and bees and such. This meeting was about the future course of a live talkshow here in town for which I do social media and marketing. No, it's not on radio on TV, just in front of a live audience. But it's nice.
Hopefully lots of kudos!

Two gray and white tabby cats asleep together on their favorite window sill. They are all jumbled together and it's hard to tell how many there are, where one starts and the other ends. They are wicked cute.

My first mural is done!
alt text
One week ago we opened my first mural with a perfect neighbourhood party. I’m really happy with what is basically a gigantic watercolour. It's not that easy to photograph because there's a tree in front of the whole thing and the plants adjacent to the wall have been destroyed because I had to be there with the scissor lift, so that looks really bad as well for the time being. I have to get a drone or something.
Thank you so much for all your support during the whole process. Several people have already gotten in touch with me to talk about more murals I could do, but we'll see if anything pans out.
I've got a bit longer video on my Instagram for those who are interested: https://www.instagram.com/p...

teaser trailer for the restoration of the 1971 film "the devils". most of the film is black title cards over oliver reed's voice, with quick intermittent shots from the restored film
such a wildly intense, sweaty-assed, magnificently-shot film. i've seen the DVD-quality print of (most of) the longer cut, but it will be amazing to see the whole thing in HD.
i wish there were a longer trailer out there for the new stuff that, you know, wasn't cut like a modern horror movie. but hopefully soon?

This is in this film. The D-Words played back up on this cover. Nico, a little flat, here and there, takes on a poem (ha ha ha ha.) So avant garde, like Neenie and Nüni of SNL fame.

Loved this movie. I was a huge Ken Russell fan back in the 80s.

TLDR: the main tenets of the theory gained widespread acceptance by European researchers already in the 1920s, and the debates were mostly about _how_. However, the theory took longer to be accepted in North America, and they only irrefutably nailed down the mechanism and evidence thereof by the 1960s.

Single Line Font Archive

I just discovered OG web hero Golan Levin's archive of "single-stroke fonts" https://github.com/golanlev...
"This is a repository of p5.js (JavaScript) programs for loading and displaying single-line vector fonts (also called single-stroke fonts, technical lettering fonts, stick fonts, skeleton fonts, engraving fonts, or monoline fonts) in a variety of formats — including TTF, SVG 1.1 Font, Hershey Font, and others. This repository also attempts to present an authoritative archive of single-line fonts (and procedural fonts) recovered or extracted from a wide range of creative projects, vintage and obsolete technologies, and other sources.
Most digital fonts are "outline fonts", which represent letterforms as shapes that fill closed contours. By contrast, single-line fonts represent letters with linear skeletons, the same way we might write them by hand. Single-line fonts are ideally suited to creative coding, pen-plotting, laser projection, and CNC machining."

I'm currently in the process of memorizing all those squiggly characters (kanji) in the bottom 80% of that pic. Each one can have several meanings and pronunciations.
Bees!!!! (Mark II)

Image shows a cut away of a ceiling in a suburban home where floor joists in the ceiling have partially completed honeycombs covering the space between.
We hired a local apiary specialist to come rescue the bees who had made a home above our mud room. It was $$$ but made us happier. This is a relatively young hive. We saw them swarming weeks ago but couldn’t get anyone out until this past weekend.
Bees!! (Mark III)
alt text
Seen in the photo is a partially constructed honeycomb, uncapped, with some nectar filling the uncapped hexagonal. All of the above sits in a plastic Rubbermaid container.
This is the one comb that the apiarist saved for us. All the rest will go into the rehomed B’s new enclosure. Because they have baby bees in them and some of those will survive. What is in here is nectar, not honey because none of these cells is capped. He explained to me that honey. Only comes after nectar has been properly dehydrated by the bees, fanning it after capping it. All the family members have tasted this nectar. It taste like the wildflowers from our backyard. I intend to rinse the comb and melt it down into a beeswax candle.
The nightmare!

our ISP has cloud flare and Captcha engaged, and I got stuck in a captcha death spiral yesterday trying to access archive.ph so I could read a firewalled article.
