Low-hanging fruit: everyone sees it, few actually pick it up 🍎🍇🍉🍓🫐🍒
Our latest preprint explores dark pigmentation in blackberry, a plant characterized by low-hanging fruit. The combination of genomics and transcriptomics reveals insights into the genetics of pigment biosynthesis. High levels of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside were identified in blackberries, which may explain their dark coloration.

Vegetable colors tell quiet stories. 🌱
Purple deepens with stress 🟣
Orange gathers sunlight 🧡
Red deepens as ripening synthesizes pigments 🍅Explore anthocyanins, carotenoids, and betalains, nature's chemical alphabet.
✍️ https://TPC8.short.gy/dncuXIJIThese hues reflect chemistry, history, and the ways plants endure their environments. Color becomes a record of life adapting in plain sight. 🧪

Baryte might be useful geochronology but you can’t vote against 164,000 years of art history!
From cave painting to today! Electrically conductive hematite is a pigment with a storied history in red ochre & chalk.
Vote for art & human culture. Vote hematite! #MinCup25

I just learned, that Winsor&Newton has a recycling program for old paints and markers. Which is what we need all over the world. Oftentimes pigments and paints need to be safely disposed of as toxic waste, so for artists, who use a lot, disposing of old paint can become an issue. (If you're responsible...)
So maybe it's worth looking into it and spread the word: https://www.winsornewton.com/en-ca/pages/recycle-art-supplies

Round 3 Match 1 of #MinCup24 is a challenge for my art or physics voting scheme!
Perovskite wins the physics vote with its exciting possible origins in the mantle or even a Brown dwarf + its potential for use in solar panels
Stibnite wins the art vote for kohl, glassmaking & pyrotechnics & as a grey-black pigment for centuries

#Atacamite -used as a green pigment since antiquity on ancient Egyptian paintings, illuminated manuscripts, sculptures, oil paintings or here in ancient Buddhist Kizil Caves in China (3rd-8th century) pulls ahead of #Stibnite -used as kohl as cosmetics since ancient Egypt for my #MinCup24 art vote.

"#Aliens? #Vegetables? Nope, vegetable and #animal bridge #mushrooms. They're the myxomycetes, and they can move and hunt for prey or look for the best environment for them. They are born from spores, like mushrooms.
#Myxomycetes move like huge #amoebas, like pulsating masses; their movements seem to be dependent on microfibrils that remember the fibers of the muscles. These "blobs′′ crawl (at a speed of 1 cm per hour) #phagocusing #bacteria, #algae, #yeasts, #protozoa and other #organic material as they go; they digest them and expel the remains outside. Not randomly, mixomycetes proliferate where there are plenty of prey - on decomposing logs or on carpets of dead, wet leaves. And so they're often found in the #woods, #yellow, #purple, #blue, #red, thanks to the #pigments they contain. -

#Introduction! I'm a #BayArea #socialpractice #artist who just moved to the #Netherlands to start an #art & #jewelry business. I'm an expert on #ghostsigns. I'm currently teaching myself how to make historic #pigments & #paints for a new series. I collect #atomic ephemera, #cats, #MourningArt , old #signs, & #VintageHats . I probably have the only Home Depot skeleton in North Holland. Opening a gallery in my front yard in 2023!
