“All one wants to do is make a small, finished, polished, burnished, beautiful object”*…

… and if we don’t make them, we can collect them.

Scott Teplin reports (in Paul Lukas‘ nifty newsletter, Inconspicuous Consumption) on one remarkable example…

My family and I recently vacationed in Mexico City. Nestled in the heart of the city’s vibrant Roma Norte neighborhood is a hidden gem that nearly escaped our itinerary: The Object Museum (or MODO, short for Museo del Objeto del Objeto, or “the Object of the Object” [see also here]).

To be honest, I was initially hesitant to step inside. Having grown up in Wisconsin, I developed a healthy distaste for the cluttered crap heaps featured in the infamous tourist trap the House on the Rock, and I worried that MODO might be more of the same. However, curiosity eventually won out, and I wandered in one afternoon to discover what turned out to be one of the most delightful museum experiences I’ve ever had.

The museum is a dedicated homage to the “object (i.e., the point) of the object,” showcasing vast collections of everyday items. Originally conceived as the private obsession of the mansion’s resident, Bruno Newman [here], who spent over 40 years collecting packaging and advertising, it has evolved into something of a localized record of material culture. Plus it’s just a well-curated collection of cool stuff…

A celebration of the commonplace. See much more at: “A Museum Devoted to Everyday Items,” from @steplin.bsky.social.

As we regard the routine, we might celebrate: today is National Margarita Day.

As you most likely know - Modo is being discontinued :(. But what you might not know is that you can get perpetual license for free.

Here you can download it: https://support.foundry.com/hc/en-us/articles/360019180479-Q100595-Download-links-for-previous-Modo-versions and here you can get license: https://campaigns.foundry.com/modo-eol-license-perpetual

Another little Modo hatch brought into Blender.
The work involved in bringing them in as OBJ's isn't fun so much tweaking required.

An old Modo Polystein asset I made years back brought it in to Blender for fun. This is a Sub-D model and not the way I work normally.

This is sad… I actually enjoyed using #Modo. #VFX

Update: you can now get a free 10 years "end-of-life" license until 2025 here:

Foundry announced they're "winding down" Modo. ☹️ I've used modo for 20 years, ever since version 102. So I guess this is what it feels like to get old and slowly slide into obsolescence...

#modo #sad #old

For those who are looking for an alternative, but have always found it difficult to learn #Blender, you may find some additional components useful that will facilitate its use, and they are the PIE menu. https://extensions.blender.org/search/?q=PIE+menu

I'm not happy with this, but it was an overrated application, as well as being very expensive, for what it offered, with exceptional marketing behind it, important contacts in the #VFX industry that allowed it to take advantage of an undeserved advantage, in some videos they mocked other applications, but in the end, they decided to stop development, a shame for those who believed in this project. #modo #Foundry #2D #mesh #SubD #b3d #Blender #Blender3D

Just found this - it probably will not exist much longer; back in (I think) 2016, Foundry actually did a video with me showcasing how I used Modo for Airheart. Also spotted on that site: 3D Art legend Tor Frick. 😮

I‘ve started using it almost 10 years ago when joining Blindflug Studios. They told me I can choose whatever 3D toolset I want. I had experience with Cinema 4D, Blender, Maya, 3ds Max (and others), but I chose MODO, and I wasn‘t disappointed. Modeled, rigged and animated most Blindflug games assets with it until around 2020 when it started to show it‘s age.

I've lost track of how many bird species have had young in our yard this year, but the latest are these Mourning Doves.

Now that I think about it, I kept working in Modo 14 for a looong time with it just working. The thing that broke everything was Apple with its new chips.

I was happy to see mother nature adding some traffic calming to our neighborhood. But then I noticed the tree landed on a car-sharing vehicle. 😭 If only there had been an oversized truck parked there. #bcStorm #modo #carSharing

La Vancouver Cleaning #Cooperative va ser fundada per 3 dones després de viure experiències d'explotació, discriminació, #patriarcat i capitalisme, amb l'objectiu de millorar les seves vides i autoocupar-se.

Ara, treballen per a la cooperativa de #Carsharing canadenca #Modo i són un exemple de sinergies, intercooperació i relacions d'#igualtat des del cooperativisme.

Un exemple a seguir per @ecotxe.

#MoDo – #Eins #Zwei #Polizei 🎶

L’altro ieri ho accennato che il mio #Kindle è stato per mesi a prendere polvere infinita, per motivi tanto complicati quanto l’essenza della mia esistenza: 💨️

Il #tablet #eink in questione lo avevo comprato in #estate, principalmente per #leggere (e scrivere, perché mi voglio male) in posti tipo il #mare, però poi, ormai possedendolo, avevo preso anche l’abitudine di usarlo per mettermi a #leggiucchiare nel lettuccio, la #sera tardi, un po’ libri e un po’ articoli salvati durante la giornata… 💌️

Però poi, praticamente nell’arco di una sola settimana questa estate, questa bella #abitudine andò a farsi benedire, perché — un po’ non avendo la stanza solita mia per la sera (ero in un villaggio), un po’ arrivando praticamente a crollare poco dopo la mezzanotte — perdendo il ritmo costante del metterla in pratica, arrivando a fare qualche volta si ed altre no, passandoci in mezzo anche qualche altra #serata #sfortunata oltre a quei 7 giorni… ed ecco che questo bel #modo di fare si è magicamente distrutto, e per mesi nel #lettino ho ricominciato a dormire solamente. Che cosa #triste quando un mobile viene usato per 1 sola cosa! 😶️

Con l’arrivo di queste #vacanze invernali, in qualche modo le mie #abitudini del #sonno sono peggiorate ancora di più del solito, e ho iniziato in media ad andare a letto 1 ora ancora più #tardi, ma la cosa mi sta (per qualche #motivo che da anni ancora non capisco) un pochino sul culo… ☠️

Quindi, due settimane fa, ho pensato: dato che mi dispiace non avere più quell’abitudine, perché era un momento di #tempo che mi ritagliavo apposta per leggere cose un po’ più lunghe del solito che non siano fumetti, perché leggere è #importante, bla bla zzz, [e altre cose di questo tenore], e dato che da un po’ di tempo mi sentivo abbastanza irrequieta quando mi mettevo a letto, impiegando un pochino per prendere sonno anziché crollare in maniera goduriosa… perché non riprendere in mano questa cosa? “E così magari succede anche che mi metto a letto un po’ prima delle 2 di fottuta notte“… 👾️

Pro: In effetti, non è stato difficile mettere in pratica il #proposito in sé: la sera stessa in cui ho avuto l’idea ho fatto tardissimo come al solito, ma, come mi ero ripromessa, ho letto qualche minuto in pace e bon, quindi ho #dormito come un sasso di silicio. Se proprio una #notte sto morendo, o la mattina dopo ho un risveglio militare, allora salto, non voglio diventare deceduta solo perché mi fisso con la #lettura; ma mi impongo di poterlo fare solo eccezionalmente, e mai 2 volte o più di seguito, così non perdo il #ritmo. (Come già ragionavo prima, insomma.) 📖️

Contro: Ovviamente, tutto questo non ha assolutamente fatto si che io iniziassi a scalare indietro l’orario di innestarmi nel lettino; semplicemente ora succede che un po’ dormo qualcosa in meno, un po’ rimango incollata al #letto ancora di più la mattina… c’è da meravigliarsi? Mi sa di no: quando l’anno scorso avevo preso questa abitudine, inizialmente pensavo di #regolarmi allo stesso modo, ma quello che in realtà successe fu che bene o male andavo nel lettone sempre con gli stessi termini, solo che a quel punto facevo uscire a forza il tempo di leggere. 🤗️

Per il meme, terminiamo con un #sondaggio anonimo: è più importante leggere o #dormire? (Se non visualizzate il modulo, aprite questo post sul sito originale.) ❗️

• È più importante leggere
• È più importante dormire
