I am so excited for this Mind Benders neon class I am gonna start teaching tomorrow. Running till Sunday, students of all levels will get to learn neon bending, inkscape pattern (neon template) design, and a few programming things to make the neon blink (using microcontrollers).

Also trilled for the Embracing Fallibility exhibition going along with it. Mostly about human "error"- and loving the errors. April 11th it opens, and its up through July 19th. Here are a few install shots. Every piece is interactive- by physically pressing buttons, or by joining a wifi network that the pieces emanate, or by visiting

sticks.weblink.ooo/

from anywhere in the world. Okay, that last one is a little buggy- I programmed em all myself with some ai (mostly run locally) help. The LLMs are a a crutch, but I am learning more about #programming with them.

Here are some install shots of the show, and me connecting the sticks chandelier to the studio wifi.

A zoomed out view of the show, half stantioned off. All the work isn't too giant- everything is small in the white wall gallery- all my wires made into non tripping hazards. Bright lights all over the gallery.
A computer monitor balanced on top of a ladder with an HDMI cord, keyboard, and mouse running down from the single board computer aboard the stick chandelier piece.The mouse is atop the computer monitor and keyboard is on the top step of the ladder.
The view from atop the ladder. Yeah, I caved in an got the mouse out- the mouse is on a junk computer monitor from the office, dim, linux desktop on the screen, cords running down from the chandelier above. Empty paint drying pedestals seen below. Photo taken looking down standing on the ladder.
Soldering up three more weblink backpacks on the kitchen table at the airBNB. It was the perfect thing to do as the marinade cooled for my chicken that I just made- delicious. Three white rectangle PCBs with ESP 32 seeed Xiao boards on them. Orange weller soldering iron in the forground with brass sponge. Fancy orange cheddar cheese AC-DC rectifiers in the background along with a bunch of digikey bags on a sorta crappy but very functional AirbNb table.

Dusk The iconic Lowry Avenue Bridge Minneapolis Minnesota The iconic Lowry Avenue Bridge stretches gracefully over the mighty Mississippi River, offering one of the most stunning perspectives of the Minneapolis skyline. As dusk settles over the city, the bridge’s sleek, modern arch is illuminated in a soft glow, reflecting off the water below in shimmering hues of blue and white. In the background, the downtown Minneapolis skyline comes alive with twinkling lights — a dazzling array of skyscrapers, historic buildings, and glowing windows standing tall against the deepening twilight sky. The scene captures the perfect harmony of engineering and artistry, where urban beauty meets the natural flow of the river. It’s a beloved spot for photographers, locals, and visitors alike, especially as the city transitions from golden hour into the magic of night.

A favorite weird movie that was made in #Minnesota - and even produced by Ethan Coen! - was 1999's "The Naked Man," starring Michael Rapaport as a chiropractor by day, pro wrestler by night. His wrestling persona was "Naked Man" where he wore a body suit with internal human organs printed on it.

A former roommate of mine - and women's hockey player - was in a crowd scene during one of the wrestling matches. #MNastodon
