I want to say to all of you in the USA, that I really appreciate you and the income you have provided my family over the years. Please don't give up on us & come back next year. I plan on steering Taitaya Forge through this storm and hope to see you on the other side. ❤️

I'm going through this incredibly inspired and creative phase at the moment. New ideas in everything! I wish it could be like this all the time.

Hurrah! We can sell into the EU again! Thank you for all of you who have waited for me me to get my blue and gold ducks in a row for this. 🥳

I am proud to announce the release of my newest design. A Loki pendant. This one has a bit of a layered back story, so please be sure to check the origins blog on the website. You can find the link to it from the listing. www.taitaya.com/products/iro...

Our website... Taitaya.com, run through shopify, has been experiencing some updates. 😊 There was an update to the theme available. I normally avoid having to update, because I tend to have an insane amount of customisation to the theme....

The forged silver Gungnir pendant has been sold out for quite a while now. I made another towards the end of last year and only just had an opportunity to get it photographed and listed. 🙂

UK is trying to be a leader in the AI. This includes an overhaul of copyrights. There is a consultation about it. It is important to get the word out to all UK artists to voice their viewpoint on an exemption in copyright for use as data for training AI www.gov.uk/government/c... #art #artists

gov.uk

This consultation seeks views on how the government can ensure the UK’s legal framework for AI and copyright supports the UK creative industries and AI sector together.

@edzitron.com Love your podcast. Mentioned it (and your accent 😜). Your episode on the origins of Bluesky with Mike Masnick inspired me to write this... open.substack.com/pub/taitaya/... I am hoping to get the idea out there so maybe someone could take the idea forward.

Open Ecommerce Protocol? A way to give small businesses a fighting chance?

Could this be a solution in democratising the ecommerce away from the big platform sites like Etsy?

Asiasta kukkalaatikkoon. That's Finnish, incase you didn't figure it out. I used to say it when I would seemingly randomly jump between topics, sometimes mid conversation. I'm writing an introduction to my Forgenomics zine on substack & remembered it. It translates to: From the topic to a flower box

I've published the first episode and introduction to my new blog series called Origins. Each episode will be a deep dive in how a design was created from concept to design. Will put links to episodes on this post.

@mmasnick.bsky.social would a protocol based system work for e-commerce? Small craft makers like myself are currently locked into market platforms that are slowly eroding our agency whilst increasing their cut. In a similar way to social media, it's difficult to move or find viable alternatives.
