A couple years ago we got to work with wonderful groups in Sri Lanka for an amazing conference. One of our participants put together a nice donation pool to help out our friends there impacted by the horrible flooding. Please chip in if you can!

I've somehow managed to prep these 4 zines for Expozine next weekend! Just doing a small run of each, but pretty happy with the range. You'll have to find me in person to get a copy.

I bought an unmarked cardboard tube that was calling to me at a vintage tech museum collection sale and it turned out to be this Hitachi polyester film antenna and it's so beautiful! 📻 🤩

we're (virtually) looking at among other things maps and technology and art with a class from Concordia today and so you should all read this essay from @stephencass.bsky.social because it's poignant and lovely
I just wanted to add this to the map discourse: an essay I wrote for EmpherMAL, the zine from @mediaarchaeology.bsky.social — it's about the glory days of personal cartography in the 80s; text, flip-screen, and FPS games; Discworld books; and D&D then and now (p10): archive.org/details/ephe...
