‘Try to Love the Questions’ block print, gold ink and graphite on old geologic map An anatomical valentine for #SciArtSeptember day 11 : #heart #maps #printmaking
A decades-old geological map with fantastic colors with various tones of pink and red as a background for a block print in deep maroon of my anatomical valentine. 

There are notes in graphite and on top of this map of mineral deposits I added gold pigment ink.

But Google maps has gotten much much worse over the past few years and is less reliable for this purpose. I place a curse on AI 🪄

I can navigate pretty well without gps. But I lived in a land of bridges and tunnels for too long & inevitably one would be in standstill traffic, so I almost always have my gps on just to avoid traffic.

Three ugly gold utensils. The middle spoon: large spoon head with two flattened wires coming out to form the handle; the right wire curves down and away before two tight turns and ending in a spiral (it sort of forms the silhouette of a person's back, bum, and legs in a squat), the left wire goes straight down to meet one of the curves (appears like an arm going straight down with hands settling in the knee of the other wire).Spongebob twerking.

As an anthropologist, I am endlessly fascinated by how groups develop and interact in digital space. To the point that it distracts me from my actual work 😅 I think partially because it is not how I use the internet, I've always been more of a lurker, so I wonder at how others engage with it.

Getting a PhD is hard. But the intellectual growth from that difficulty is worth it (I can't say the difficulties of navigating the system are worth it though...). I can't imagine using AI for this, going through all this hell, just to come away with nothing but a piece of paper.

Love this idea! As a TA, I've been thinking a lot about how much I see my students struggle over the semester (often Freshmen but not all) & I think a reflection on their first assignment is a great way to show them what/that they've learned and build confidence while practicing an important skill.

I know not everyone is who they thought they would be under a fascist, authoritarian regime. That's okay. But it's time to do more than react and post about it. It's time to get organized—including mapping or creating lines of support and defense in your community.
