Anthony James' work with mirrors is amazing. On the surface, the premise is simple: opposing 2-way mirrors in various angles or set parallel, but the effect and execution is incredible

Especially the portals series

The Northern Central Grain Elevator in Baltimore once was the largest grain terminal on the East Coast of the United States. Inside was a maze of pipes and some of the foulest water I've ever encountered, possibly an unholy, decades-old dirt-beer from whatever was left inside.

This #throwbackthursday my tribute to the spikey alien landscape, including the last one, an album cover I did for a metal band almost 20 years ago. #landscape #scifi #conceptart #conceptdesign

With all of them.
At the same time.

this was the best thing I ever tweeted

Hello. I’ve been a bit sporadic on here recently. Apologies. Posting the Calanais Standing Stones for today’s #PhotoOfTheDay We’ve visited a number of times and are always in awe. Go if you get the chance. They’re older than Stonehenge and you can still touch them.. #Scotland #ScottishHighlandsAndIslands #history #StandingStones #calanais

#Introduction toot for the two cats that we serve!

Both are sisters that we adopted 12 years ago when they were 1 year old. They’re both #calico but it’s more obvious in Pict.

Celt had pneumonia before she was rescued and so only half of one lung works. last year we thought we’d lose her and had her on an oxygen machine for a long time but she’s still with us! Hobbies: sleeping and expensive food.

Pict is large, loud and fluffy. Hobbies: playing and ALL food.

I've mentioned this issue before, but you really have to be careful when buying #vinyl from Amazon. E.g., on 1st glance of this photo, it looks like an official Blue Note album is available for EUR 24.37. But it's not. You're redirected to a version by a 'Gray Label' (a company that exploits copyright loopholes). This label has *not* been granted a licence from Blue Note; it didn't have access to master tapes. The vinyl was cheaply created by ripping an official LP, CD or even MP3 files.

I'm confused when devs claim that you can't experiment with software on the fediverse. I have spent the last 5 years of my life building experimental software on the fediverse, and people have been very supportive!

There is a MASSIVE design space for weird ideas that are not just dressed-up surveillance capitalism, but so many devs come here saying "I will try out some dressed-up surveillance capitalism" and then act like their genius design thinking is being stymied when people say "fuck off"

Please enjoy this thing I made for a thread about a börb
