October 18, 20231 yr The town of Marfa, Texas gets nearly 25 times more visitors than its population, so if you're ever passing through Texas you may wanna stop in Marfa. @T4M* https://www.click2houston.com/features/2023/10/18/how-remote-desert-town-in-texas-became-such-an-arts-mecca/
October 29, 20231 yr @nicklesndimes I went down the rabbit hole to see if Vantablack was offer on the consumer market. Unfortunately, it isn't but I found an equivalent called Black 3.0 which I purchased amd it is surprisingly black as black can get. This when I also discovered a ridiculous fued between Anish Kapoor and Stewart Simple that is still ongoing to this day. Anish got ahold of some and replied... Edited October 29, 20231 yr by ndv
October 30, 20231 yr 17 hours ago, nicklesndimes said: @ndv what're you gonna do w/ the black 3.0 you purchased? I was interested in the seeing how deep the black is in person, as well as how durable the paint is when cured for industrial purposes for a competitive edge. 3.0 is acrylic based, flakes off so it bad for indoor/outdoor use. But cool non-the-less. It is blacker than all current blacks on the market and great for art, specifically if the artist is looking for a true black. Vanta, isn't so much of a paint process. It's similar to the processes practiced electrostatic coating like powder coating. Vanta is also on a toxic level that isn't safe for consumer handling. I still have the bottle as I do not do much with it at all.

February 14Feb 14 tart cards I found in poland about 22 years ago and then again in a box the other day. I really am a suss cu*t at times.
May 22May 22 @Schnitzel reminded me of these. Chicago business cards ALWAYS come back to my mind. I'm sure I probably first seen em here. I've wanted to replicate one of these for a minute, but my professional life doesn't suit a gangsta style business card.....yet.It's a book now: https://almightyandinsanebooks.com/shop/thee-almighty-amp-insane-chicago-gang-business-cards-from-the-1960s-amp-1970s
May 22May 22 Yeah, agreed. I still think I should put one together, as I've been starting to network in different spaces now, arguably less professional, so it might hit the mark a bit more (as opposed to corporate events etc).
