  2. A client reach out to me on behalf of her mother who wanted pieces created that gave a nod to a 1935 copy of The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyam that she owns. Since she can’t give all four of her daughters the one book, she asked me to create 4 pieces each of a different favorite stanza in a style reminiscent of her copy.

  4. Hey guys, I'm not so #newhere on the fediverse but I now have my own instance, #gotosocial running here, using #phanpy

    introduction
    Here are some stuff about me:

    • #linux user since 13th July 2015; #opensuse enjoyed since the 1sr of January 2026.
    • #scifi is my passion;
    • I may be hobbit -ing sometimes, I like it very much; may be practicing #bushcraft in the future.
    • I'm a kind of reasonable #prepper always having an EDC with me. Soon be certified first aid guy.
    • Hardcore scifi reader, I sometimes watch some films or play some video games.
    • I'm going to write in French, English and 汉语.
    • I strongly love the chinese culture, I practice #calligraphy chen style #taijiquan and have no problem to eat spicy food #china #中国
    • I still have this project of making a debian based distro, no gui, CLI/TUI only, with the only purpose of writing, so with vim, Doom emacs+orgmode+orgroam, and a CLI smolnet client installed by default. I have no idea about how to do this though.

    What is HardTech?
    Hardtech is a #scifi project I have: a scifi documentation website; a website that describes in details fictional technologies. A kind of user manual for a spacecraft/space station.
    The aesthetics are rusty, unsafe, industrial. You must see wires in the spaceships/space station, you must not feel safe when you're on board. Main colors are various orange and black.

    Hardtech is LowTech

    Why? Because HardTech needs to know technologies in details to make them understandable for other people, but needs to stay technical and cryptic enough to keep the sense of wonder.

    I hope you will enjoy following this account.

  5. #The100DayProject Days 14-18
    I purchased this top sheet at Fabindia in Mumbai 16 years ago, and I've used it almost constantly since then. Recently, the edges started ripping away from the body, so it was time to refurbish the sheet. It took several days to trim away the edges, and today, I ironed it all the way around and sewed down a new edge for the sheet. I'm SO happy to have this sheet back on my bed!
    Yesterday was an outlier because I spent all day collecting petition signatures in an art supply shop. I bought a bagful of neglected art supplies, and I practised calligraphy, sharpened my watercolour pencils and used them, and I bought and used a new fountain pen.

  7. In today's video, I'm diving into the vibrant world of fountain pens with a special focus on two stunning combinations:

    1. Jinhao x159 paired with Diamine Serendipity ink.
    2. Jinhao x850 filled with Diamine Merry and Bright ink.

    Join me as I explore these combinations.

  10. I love #Uyghur #Mongolian scripts #calligraphy en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongoli... Not able to decipher it for now Probably someday, after I can decypher #cyrillic mongolian sentences a bit My few mongolian lessons were mega-difficult Left me the feeling of a whole alien pronunciation-system
