A throwback for Ctenophore Day! 🧪🐡🪼 If you ever wondered how to pronounce Ctenophore, today is October 4, the 10th month, fourth day and it sounds like ten oh four. They are a phylum of marine invertebrates, like this comb jelly which look a bit like jellyfish, but instead of stinging tentacles 🧵
This multimedia piece combines my linocut comb jelly on translucent Japanese paper, and self-flashing rgb LEDs to replicate their incredible bioluminescence. The translucent white comb jelly in in a dark blue glowing rectangle with two stripes of dashes along its body where changing coloured light glows through. There are white bubbles and part of two other comb jellies on the top and bottom edge of the box. It’s shot on a white background and is approximately 8”x10”2.5”

best of luck...I hope things can truly calm down soon! maybe putting aside a little time to do any writing at all instead of finishing will help

every time I try to turn bluetooth on/off on my phone, I accidentally turn on my work profile every time I try to turn night mode on/off on my phone, I accidentally turn on my work profile you'd think this would stop happening in my 10th year working in this role, and yet

The result is something that closely resembles modern fandom culture, but instead of young singers or movie stars, fans fixate on people who've been dead for centuries, if not longer.

it's neither delayed gratification nor task paralysis...I just don't like urgency, I know what's in the package and there is usually nothing in there that could override my preference for taking it slow

just realized I might be weird for always opening packages 1-2 days after they arrive instead of immediately

in art circles in jp / chn, artists get referred to as “sensei” / “laoshi”, but we don’t have that in english and we should. but i also don’t really like the way “teacher” sounds in english, so i think we should start addressing all artists as “boss”, like we’re all goons (the normal definiton)
