  1. #SciArtSeptember Day 10: Algae

    (This was going to be cast in brass, until some guy dropped it on the ground and utterly destroyed it. An incomplete process photo is the only thing left)

    I arranged found Araucaria leaves so they evoked the motion of algae in water.

  2. I don't know if this qualifies for #SciArtSeptember Day 1: Fluid. @kristinHenry : You started this, right? what do you think?

    It's brass in its liquid form, being used in my old metal casting class, to make the little brass sculpture on my profile pic. Also, as that sculpture is a cast of wood tunneled by xylophagous insects, I consider it #SciArt , but a photo of liquid metal isn't 🤔

    In business from 1570 to 2017, Whitechapel Bell Foundry was probably the most famous bell foundry in the world. Go behind the scenes at the foundry to see how they made enduring #bells like Big Ben and so many more.

  7. Brass cast little sculpture of a wood cube showing tunnels carved by a woodworm. Of course the tree was already firewood when I found it, I only cut it into a rough cube. And the woodworm was long gone: Wherever you are, I hope you're OK, it was nice making this collab with you.

  8. Besides pixelart, I'll post "traditional" art too, like this little brass-casted installation I made by slicing wood, to show the tunnels carved by termites in an old tool I found. Keep in mind that this is more of my thing than pixelart.
