Old mosaics that still feel kinda relevant to locals 🐟 Ever since @_leevolt_ came up with this amazing mosaic brush I wanted to use it for a ridiculously big fresco kind of illu
I am so tired of short-attention-span, trim-the-fat culture. All writing advice these days is for how to write like Chuck Palahniuk. "Cut 'think', cut 'feel', cut 'wonder' - only action, only pushing forward, show and move and move and move." What if I could emulate this style, and still don't want to? What if I want to write like Henry James, with three paragraphs of introspective musings between each dialogue line? The music advice is, "make it shortform, make it Tik-Tok compatible, make it punchy, hit the refrain as soon as possible." What if I want that 10-minute prog rock piece? What if I want that symphony? What if I want it slow and luxurious and lazy? Movies. Series. Poetry. Bodies. Everything is "trimmed trimmed trimmed trimmed, stripped bare, you have three seconds to win me over, make it airport chic." I don't want to win you over, then, I guess. I want the fat left it. I want the pleasure and the indolence and the indulgence. Fuck this art-advice that's always "your art needs Ozempic."

Finally coloured my Shiara post from N7 month!
update: i'm doing science and i'm still alive.
Hey! It's been a while. Thought I'd make a proof-of-life post.
Long story short: I crawled back to academia like the clown that I am, and the ivory tower gladly ate my soul. The grind, however, paid off for me: I got into my top-choice PhD program in my first application cycle, and I'll be starting this fall. Absolutely gobsmacked!
I hope I can relearn how to do the work/life balance thing. Maybe there will be art and writing here sometime soon...or in the winter when it's too snowy for bike rides. We'll see...we'll see. Things are weird for everyone, I think, but I just want to focus on doing good science and putting more weird art into the world.
Anyway, I miss P-Shep and Liara and all your Sheps and Liaras and OCs. I miss getting immersed in stories. Talk to you soon, hopefully.

Was anyone gonna tell me we found who Cleo was??? The integration genius on math stack exchange from 10 years ago?
Cleo (mathematician) - Wikipedia
TLDR it was a professor from Uzbekistan named Viktor Reshetnikov who did it because he wanted people to be more interested in the niche problems people would post on there. Cleo wasn’t even his only account, he was doing multiple people
additional detail - he picked very tricky problems where he had a good guess for the answer but was really struggling to prove it. he would post the problem on an alt, then instapost what he thought was the answer as Cleo, and then hope that he could bait other people into doing the work to verify step by step that his solution was correct. and it worked a bunch of times!
previously he had just posted "hey i think this is the solution to this complex integral but i want help proving it" and then got zero interaction
That's fascinating tbh
