1. I’m caring for #NotMyCat Penny this week. She purred in my ear this morning. Science says a cat's purr can calm the nervous system & lower blood pressure.
2. I stopped by the neighborhood French bakery—Le French Tart on 5th Ave—for a #TreatYoSelf splurge. I got a mini quiche Lorraine, a pain au chocolat (which was so fresh the chocolate was melty) & a baguette. #Brooklyn
3. I’m beginning to plan a trip to #DoorCounty #Wisconsin, which is a favorite destination for my family.

New York City's iconic Brooklyn Bridge, which connects Brooklyn and Manhattan over the East River, officially opened to the public 140 years ago to the day. I collected original newspaper articles and materials to recount the events of festivities and ceremonies, which involved thousands of revelers and prominent persons, including then-President Chester Arthur.

Some phosphor dust coated tube in tubes. I was going to be filling them all today- but I forgot how unannealed borosilicate glass has a tendency to just crack on it's own when left for prolonged periods. I got the heat in part- but it's the heat out that I am forgetting.
Time to patch up cracks and wait for the kiln and technician stars to align once more. Excited to see how these coatings look.

@GregCirillo None of this is in any #history books I have read, and even #Wikipedia is not really tying the Hercules Gunpowder Plant explosion into the #AmericaFirst and German-controlled #Nazi groups that supported them:

And https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largest_artificial_non-nuclear_explosions#Hercules_Powder_Plant
I am curious about the #IRA / #Nazi ties though since #RachelMaddow doesn't mention that. https://dbpedia.org/page/Hercules_Powder_plant_disaster says more.

Dispatch from #Brooklyn #NYC — At a Rite Aid waiting for a vaccine. Overhearing people talking about how “no allergy medicine works for them any more.” No #masks in sight. Nobody in the pharmacy is masked—and every single one of them is coughing, touching their faces, and wiping their noses with their bare hands. I guess we’ve learned absolutely nothing 🙃

Huzzah! All the lines pumped and mounted! Yeah I could fuss with the alignment of some of the lines a little more. I just gotta add the cord strain reliever thing and stick the cleat on the back.
Feels good to have all those tubes mounted. Its a nice, #bright light! While dimming messes with the camera, it doesn't seem to affect scannability. Still wont scan from every angle, but it does #scan from more when its on.

Made a few tube in tubes today at Urbanglass. The outer tube heats the inner and then they both bend. Its tricky, and I am still practicing for sure. Borosilicate is a very different glass and the gas oxy carlisle torches are pretty different- but so nice and hot! I gotta try larger diameter inner and outer tubes next time.
Excited to dust coat some of these, and make a few more!

ART LOVE MONEY spinning. Using these hollywood transformers, blinking the #neon tubes is about as easy as with LEDs. there is even PWM dimming too. Here it is with a CD 40106 inverter and a CD 4017 decade counter sequencer chip. I wanna make a version of this circuit with SMT on a PCB so I can make animators that can be used as badges! I guess I gotta look more into #SMT switches... or just suck it up and move on to microcontrollers? More #research required! #animation #sculpture #brooklyn #wip

While doing some research into DIY phosphor coating for custom tube colors, a Dutch lady told me of a method of blowing sponges wet with binder through tubes with compressed air. While my binder ingredients are in the mail, I decided to put this sponge through tube to the test. Results in video.
The "sorry" at the end is me apologizing to someone that the sponge shot across the room at. The compressed air works REALLY well!

Some #accidental #cameraobscura happening with these shelves Ali made from cardboard and joint compound plaster. I poked little holes in backs when they were cardboard so I could run wires through to light up some of my doodles. I didn't even realize what we had made till the room was dark.
The custom shelves are really neat, each cubby with a doodle glows a different color!

This is my favorite tree in Brooklyn. It is covered with a climbing vine. To me, the tree looks like it is going to come alive and start walking. (I took the photo last summer.)
I learned something making these #neon #mycelium for #DebCzeresko . When bombarding the tubes to clean them we typically add a curled piece of #paper as a guage and tell the bombardier when the tube is hot. The papers on these little 8mm tubes incinerated (good), but the heat from the burning paper was enough to cause the already heated glass to suck in- at which point it still lit from the hot conductive glass . #learning #handmade #itselectric #bombard #incinerate #nerd #brooklyn #nyc #glass
