'You'll choke too' - an aerial embroidery landscape inspired by all the wildfires happening right now... I'm upset every time I smell smoke outside and somehow we have people starting them maliciously too! But we all breathe the same air so they'll choke too (1/2 - see thread for close-ups)

Here's a visualization of all the insects we saw at @kalindifonda.bsky.social 's hacker camp Krkcreate a couple weeks ago! (with a close up view of the visualization). I enjoy playing with different shape packing methods! #sciart #teammoth #mothweek
Digital Naturalism Laboratories@dinalab.bsky.social · 2w agoBeen having fun working on some data visualization software for the Mothbox! The left and right sides of this image are the same dataset, but one selects only 1 representative image from each "individual" vs a display of every single sighting of a creature from those nights.
You cannot discriminate against one group of people without it infesting the entirety of your soul. It is as true on the “left” as it is the right. Once you decide it’s cool to throw vulnerable people under the bus, you’re cooked completely.

Plus we deployed a Mothbox near their nature preserve next door! Look at these cutey moths we got from last night! (also check how good bioCLIP is getting and our homemade detector really nails the orientations of these bugs too!)
Digital Naturalism Laboratories@dinalab.bsky.social · 4w agoMe and @wellreadpanda.bsky.social gave talks to @pte.bsky.social 's cool students at Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design about our Mothbox!
me + @wellreadpanda.bsky.social have been hand crafting another artisanal, open, machine-learning insect detector for #Mothbox like devices w data from a dozen more countries and using the new Yolo26-obb model, and works wonderfully! We use rotated boxes to reduce cognitive load of human reviewers.
Check out how many bugs @wellreadpanda.bsky.social drew rectangles around today for training our newer and even more robust insect detector model! IT'S A LOT OF BUGS

If you think this looks like a threat to free speech you're wrong. Threats to free speech are when sex pests lose their jobs as magazine editors.
Khashoggi's Ghost@urocklive1.bsky.social · 2mo agoThis is bad. Three Washington state protesters have been found guilty of federal conspiracy charges for sitting in front of a bus taking people to an immigration detention center in Tacoma, and now face 6 years. Six others took plea deals rather than going to trial. newrepublic.com/post/211138/...

Today's a travel day, which is always a bit stressful. Trying to channel this energy.
Eliminating libraries in prisons is a disaster, completely shortsighted. Libraries are a lifeline for incarcerated people who want to learn and grow, and have few other options.
Mary Grace@emgeekay.bsky.social · 4mo agoCorrectional Services Canada will be eliminating all prison librarians at federal prisons. This will save between $1.5 million and $2.5 million annually.
I knitted a couple of silly bugs for some friends' kids, and then they had a picnic. And then one got really cool. Thanks to @dinalab.bsky.social for the photography help! The excellent pattern is from mochimochiworld.
