Little kits that let you build an impractical wooden flashlight… it’s a soulderless simple circuit you can put together using only wood glue. Someone suggested “Victorian Flashlights”; I thought about “hipster flashlights”, but whatever they’re called people seem to really like them (especially chicks). I’m thinking of reinvigorating my etsy store and selling these kits online (as well as more complex kits that are in the works!).
Water-absorbing-grow-jelly-ball-thingies! They’re neat.
East Austin Studio Tour time again! This year my housemate Aaron Bir was supremely prepared for EAST, and had a great first showing. Read all about it here. I did the rounds again, and after attending for three years now, found that many artists either had the same work, or were doing new work indistinguishable from the old. There were a few great exceptions, and some exciting new artists, but I didn’t catalogue my finds like I did last year. I encourage anyone who hasn’t yet checked out the event for themselves to explore next year. There’s even a possibility kicking around that you might get to explore our own house studio…
Exploring some real paint again.
