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.

A 12 year old white framed brompton folding bike with a front carry bag and a tent, chair, and dollar store crocs (crock-offs) strapped to the rear rack leaning up against a concrete form because all cops are bastards.
Went bike camping.
On a Brompton? Nice! Share the loaded shot!
O wait - that's loaded, innit. Traveling light!

▶️ " A Djinn and a Hunter Went Walking (The Complete Sessions)" | Neba Solo & Benego Diakité
alt text
(square) album artwork for neba solo & benego diakité's album "a djinn and a hunter went walking". along the left side is a soft golden yellow bar with the artist names in white, the title below it in scattered black letters, and the twigs of a plant across the bottom. to the right are the artists holding their instruments in an outdoor setting
this album caught my eye this morning while looking through the collection of someone who had followed me on bandcamp.
a little fried today, so maybe a description another time. suffice it to say it's cool, dense, expansive, one heck of an interesting musical journey so far

Moebius

A color illustration by Moebius. It shows three people standing in tall yellow grass. The middle figure is holding a rifle and wearing a pith helmet. Behind them, completely covering the entire background is the head of a dinsaur-like creature. Its mouth seems to have a little blood coming out of it, suggesting it might have been shot by the person with the rifle.
Terrifying Monday!

Dan Larson, 1935–2026
alt text
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.)

Photographic print left in a secret but public art box.
Finally left some prints and a couple of copies of a book in a funny little anonymous art box we have in the town, which my friend made.

Undergrowth (1887) by Vincent van Gogh
alt text
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.

@joost Ohhh lovely. I have wanted to go to the Kröller-Müller. Maybe someday I"ll make it back to the EU. Then to Estonia for a performance of Pärt's work.
you really don't need this but in case you do...

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.
So great.
