& π (Ampersand Pi)

March 15, 2010

I wanted to make a pie for pi day yesterday, but I had so much work to do, I didn’t think I could justify taking the time.  But then I realized: if I put an ampersand on the pie, it TOTALLY qualifies as work!  Because my Division III (thesis-esque) project is all about ampersands (the & symbol) and making ampersand related objects…

Behold, vegan four-berry (dare I say, JAMpersand?) pi:

Ampersand Pi

This would probably be the right opportunity to reveal the ampersand cookie cutter I made recently:

CMYK & cookies

The cookie cutter is only one of several Very Exciting Things I’ve been making in the Lemelson shop lately for my project; others include pillows, windchimes, a lamp, a sponge, & so forth, all in the form of the ampersand.  More photos to trickle out soon as I finish things up!
