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:

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


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!

This is what I had for lunch today.


Peanut butter, jelly, coconut, M&Ms.
Inspired by this.

Okay, so you know how there are self-publishing printing-on-demand websites like Lulu, for books?
Now there’s one for publishing magazines! All you have to do is upload a PDF, and they’ll print it, ship it, and manage subscribers for you! for free!
Do you understand what this means? I am so very excited. I love video and animation, but I seriously miss publication design so badly. Just wait. I will design magazines like there’s no tomorrow and one day you’ll look in your mailbox and say “oh! why, what is this shiny new thing?”
