& π (Ampersand Pi)

March 15th, 2010, posted in art, baking time, crafts, photos, projects

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!

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?”
