What Remains by Muhannad Shono Panorama, Desert X 2025, Coachella Valley, California

Muhannad Shono is known for his innovative exploration of identity, memory, and cultural heritage. His large-scale installations transform common elements such as plastic pipe, string, or sand into intricate systems. Drawing inspiration from the complexities of his upbringing in the Arabian Peninsula, Shono combines traditional techniques with modern forms to address themes of displacement, transformation, and the intersection of past and present.

Adobe Oasis by Ronald Rael 2, Desert X 2025, Coachella Valley, California

For the past 150 years, traditional craft techniques in wood, stone, earth, and textiles have faced neglect, resulting in the loss of invaluable ancestral knowledge. Architect, artist, and activist Ronald Rael champions the revival and reimagining of these methods by integrating contemporary technologies, presenting them as sustainable and innovative solutions for the future. Rooted in Colorado’s San Luis Valley—a historic borderland between the U.S. and Mexico before 1848—Rael draws inspiration from Indigenous and earthen construction practices.

The "Fillable" PDF application for a #Canadian passport.... doesn't let you save and come back later.

If you save it, the fields are locked when you re-open it.

Awesome to throw all my time working on these into the trash to start over. WTH.

Hoping a last ditch effort of Adobe Acrobat Pro free trial will help.

Government technology is always bloody incompetent.

Oh and I guess if you have a Linux PC, then just get lost.

The first Apple Watch was introduced 1995.
It's #contemporary #design is standing out after 30 years, still. While it was deeply integrated into #MacOS System 7.5, it's not one of their digital #gadgets. This #anniversary seems to be perfect to revisit and redraw some shacky lines and seconds in corporate #history of #AppleComputers.
https://youtu.be/AR5DUrI994Q

#Apple lost me as #proUser when they rejected my third warranty case in a row.
To rebuild the #AppleWatch from scratch in #vectorgraphics I prefer #Inkscape #SVG #copyleft on #Linux #FOSS over #Adobe #Illustrator #Ai #IP #copyright #software.

Go get the best #vector #designer #app
https://inkscape.org
and you can draw freely #retrocomputer #illustrations like we do.

A little #beforeandafter comparison, demonstrating my editing style/aesthetic. This shot was in B&W from the get-go: on the left is a straight out of camera JPEG version (created in camera, I set RAW and JPEG creation in tandem) of it that served as a proof for viewing, on the right is the end result after making adjustments in #lightrooom and #photoshop (don't remember exactly what I did but it was minimal, including lifting shadow/dark tones a bit). Sometimes #lessismore as I tread a fine line between natural looking and vibrant w/photo editing. Model: Karina. Camera and lens info: #fujixt3 and #tamron1770mmf28. Settings: 48mm (71mm full frame equivalent), ISO 400, f/2.8, 1/180 using natural light, aperture priority mode. #blackandwhite #monochrome #blackandwhitephotography #monochromemagic #photography #photo #photoediting #demo #comparison #portraiture #portraitphotography #woman #model #cowgirl #countrygirl #flower #cowboyhat #rural #rurallife #adobe #fujifilm #tamron #aperturepriority #naturallight #naturallightphotography #naturallightportrait
