Heatwave tip for anyone that does not have window blinds already: get a foil rescue blanket, cut to size and stick it to the outside of the window. Silver side facing the sun, gold side facing in. The mylar reflects the sunlight but is thin enough to let in […]

Today was art production print shop day, as emily had a ton of projects to finish and I helped by printing, binding, cutting, cyanotyping and whatnot.

#art #artschool #bookbinding #cyanotype #printing
Table with a stack of several items produced today, including a cyanotype print, a booklet with a transparent sheet over a pink cover, bound using stitching, three posters with a combination of generative art and the code that generated it, some posters with a goose and the words "where do they go?" and a QR code, some small QR code sheets, two bookmarks made using cyanotype and a perfect bound book with Cyanotyped cover

Post van Bert Hubert in Engels: "Lots of European hosters/cloud companies tell us to "just use their cloud!". But the cloud companies here can't be compared to Google/AWS/Azure. Our local places are selling wood. Yet cloud customers want furniture. And until we are honest about that gap, things won't improve" Gevolgd door een post van Koen de Jonge: "Dit is geen #kootwijk maar #IJsselstein en daar staat onze #soevereine #IT onder andere (nee het is geen totaal-alternatief voor de hyperscalers, maar wel voor sommige onderdelen daarvan)."
