Just been doing kite-design workshops with two classes of 9/10 year olds locally – equal parts exhausting and brilliant, as ever. Some of the designs are incredibly sophisticated.

Oh yay! New problem to deal with: we've gone from about 500 DNS queries a day on the #OutputArts domain earlier in the year to an average of about 4000 per day over the last couple of months, and an extraordinary 24,000 queries in one day last week
Our work is absolutely not that popular, so there's some commercial-strength bullshit going on here. Imma gonna guess fucking AI web crawlers

The #OutputArts website consists of a few dozen pages in total. It changes only when we publish info on a new art project every few months or so. So why are the same AI crawlers hoovering up the website *multiple times per day*!
Honestly, I don't even care if you train your AI on my meanderings and I certainly can't be bothered fighting an arms race with your crawler. But, more than anything, it is the STAGGERING WASTE that irritates me.

The cutting has begun for the next big project. This tabletop will be wrecked by the time I’m finished. Still, “eggs, omelettes” as Andy always says…

Did you guess what was in the pan? So, excitingly, nylon cable glands dye really well with ordinary fabric dye.
This way I get to keep a big stock of grey ones and choose later what I need for a project. Also, using dye is fun and makes you feel like you're a witch.
