Crop from a 35mm film shot. Probably my old Leica IIIf, I forget which lens.
Repeatedly following, unfollowing, and following me doesn't get me to follow back. 🙄

Breathtakingly-Detailed Tibetan Book Printed 40 Years Before the Gutenberg Bible
The Gutenberg Bible went to press in the year 1454. We now see it as the first piece of mass media, printed as it was with the then-cutting-edge technology of metal movable type. But in the history of...

It was nice to get out in the woods and away from it all for a couple days. Now back to the horror of the modern world! (Yes I know there is beauty mixed in as well.)
Another mixed media piece with a print from a tintype I made in Colorado years ago.

Raw Electronics Without Compromise: Portion Control on 47 Years of Industrial Synthesis
South London Industrial Pioneers Portion Control Break Down Their 77-Track Retrospective Transmission 421: Interview with Portion Control Formed in South London in 1979 amidst the immediate debris of post-punk, Portion Control approached electronic instrumentation not as a proxy for traditional musicianship, but as a direct vector for raw, unvarnished sound manipulation. Operating outside conventional industry structures from their early base in Kennington, the group bypassed formal composition in favour of heavy hardware sequencing, aggressive tonal sculpting, and early sampling via systems like the Greengate DS:3.

A quick video test for FORGE zine, 16 pages, roughly 5" x 4". Audio from a recent album of mine. (Just noticed I forget to use the image I posted before!) www.interrobang.org/transmission...

Back when I had my surreal photo illustrations printed EFX Art & Design (aka Mac Art & Design) magazine in 2002. I thought I was in another issue too, but not finding it. I had several pieces in their Metal Heart 2 book. I miss the old days of magazines like this.
It is sad that I can predict the weather better than the Apple Weather app. 🙄
A piece I made around 1990 with a lengthy title/statement. “The distant future shows the degradation and total collapse of the human civilization brought about by the industrial world of greed and hate pushed to the extremes by crass advertising.” 🤔 kinda rings a bell
Good piece on our food system, and berries specifically. youtu.be/nyG-np0S0ZQ?...
