I'm on an Amtrak train heading to my first strike. I'll be picketing all day at 155 6th Ave for anyone who wants to come support us in NYC!

ugly, but made with work tools whilst trying to avoid work for a few minutes. trying to do at least little things with data on my own. may try learning something new down the road, like some basic python.

found a nice export tool to grab stats without having to deal with my own API key:

will circle back after work and add links to all the bands/albums available on bandcamp

If you haven't read Jon Bois' "17776: What Football Will Look Like in the Future", let me recommend it. Genuinely one of the greatest and most heartwarming pieces of science fiction from the last decade.

The dark side of the moon, eclipsing the sun.

My teammate and I spent yesterday's photo session having introvert time and focussing on separate details. It was delightful.

This is sea moss? Sea grass? Sea weed? Some sort of sea lawn growing on a sea wall near the sea. I love the textures and the pattern created by... the sea.

Sony a7iii, 85mm lens, f10 maybe?

Now this is an energy bar I would like to eat (rum is not optional)

This one was from the same article, another Ballarat lad who was a bit of an Aussie legend. A marathon runner who won Gold, 2 x Silver and a Bronze medal at various Commonwealth Games and a heap of other marathons around the world. I used to see him jogging around the Ballarat lake when he was around 50 years old, still fit as a fiddle.

Okay, not to trivialize the real and awesome science here, but I'm a very visual person (I know, go figure), and this (incredible) real Artemis photo of the moon eclipsing the sun triggered some deep memory, ("I know there's a similar image somewhere in my brain... what is it?"), then it just dawned on me - Han Solo to the rescue at the end of Star Wars.

A picture of the Earth and, way up in the left corner, the moon, as seen from Artemis's window.

Hokay, so…

Working toward starting a print club because I really like the idea of making accessible art, and I’ve been experimenting with some processes and materials toward that end.

This is the first experimental image - I took a photo near Spital, Austria, and after some editing I converted it to halftones, because I’ve long been a sucker for vintage offset printing in comic books (grew up around Archie and Sad Sack comics from the 60’s) and Roy Lichtenstein and screen printing, etc.

When I was a photography student in undergrad I was always drawn to alternative photo processes, especially those where I got to remove intermediate machines/tools, etc., and feel like I was working more directly with the image with my hands.

Here I pushed that a little farther, with a rubber stamp of the halftone dot pattern. Felt like I was pushing a photograph into existence with my bare hands, which was fun.

This print of the Austrian sky I sent to my friend and longtime beloved critic JD in Michigan both because he deserves nice things and as thanks for his insight and opinions as I’ve thought through things around this print series.

When I finally get around to it in the hopefully near future, my first print club image will be related to this image and will be free (as a promotional effort to hopefully land on folks’ radars again with my art). I’ll let y’all know when that happens so you can check it out.

Until then, I’m just pleased with and proud of this li’l experimental piece.
