For the #SciArtSeptember prompt “simian” I made a new edition to my ongoing series of animals with fabulous collective nouns. It’s A Conspiracy of Lemurs. These ring-tailed lemurs definitely appear to be up to something. Caught in the act of scheming. The word “lemurs” mimics their tails, of course!
The ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) is a wet-nosed primate, endemic to Madagascar. 🧵1/n

'Brazil's Letter Openers' is the next free, online BLAG Chat with designers and typography researchers Fátima Finizola and Fernanda Martins: https://bl.ag/brazils-letter-openers-with-fatima-finizola-and-fernanda-martins/
They will share their respective projects documenting and celebrating the work of Brazil's abridores de letras (letter openers, or sign painters).
This will include an exclusive screening of the documentary film, Marajó das Letras.

New Letter Arts Review has arrived!!!
Still need to find out what happened to the June issue, which I never received. And since it had Joke Boudens' work on the cover, I am DESPERATE to read it. But I'll follow that up later.
Tonight, #calligraphy and #lettering work to explore!
Wake up and see the coffee! I’m riding alongside the wonderful Randall Ann Homan for a virtual road trip of coffee shop neon in California. It’s part of the online Neon Speaks festival on Sep 16.

Pictured: Courtesy Coffee Shop in Blythe, CA at the Arizona border. The shop opened in 1964 and featured a rotating pole sign and boomerang roof. I shot this in 2022.

¡Estreno nueva sección en el blog! Cada lunes publicaré una foto con una cita manuscrita con alguna frase que me haya llamado la atención de lo que haya leído, visto o escuchado la semana anterior. 🤓✍️
¿Qué te parece la idea? Empiezo hoy con una cita de Jorge Valdano de su artículo en El País sobre la situación de #Rubiales.

Estoy jubilado, soy curioso y tengo un interés casi universal por la vida, la tecnología y el arte. Me gusta tener ideas, hacer cosas y aprender como funcionan las cosas.
Tengo un blog denominado "Lo Marraco" en:
Ando buscando mi lugar el en Fediverso. Me parece una buena idea, pero me cuesta entender cual es la mejor forma de conseguir lo que quiero con un esfuerzo mínimo, ya que no quiero dedicarle a esto dos horas al día.
Mi objetivo es encontrar una comunidad de personas interesadas en los mismos temas que yo para poder intercambiar conocimiento experiencias y charlar del tema.
Mis intereses son bastante diversos:
#urbansketching #estilograficas #caligrafia #python #encuadernacion #linux #legotechnic #video ...
Y algunos otros, más o menos relacionados:

Some drop cap sketches for a fan illustration of "beast /// creature" by Patricia Taxxon I've been kinda working on on and off for a few months. It tells the romanticized account of the beginning of a kinda problematic DD/LG relationship, from the point of view of the rabbit.
The motives on the letters are supposed to be a hint about their dynamic, whether she realizes it at the moment or not.

Next week, I'm visiting #Brussels for the first time.
I'll mainly be at the Letterheads* meet, but are there other interesting locations for #signpainting, #lettering, and #ghostsigns that I should try to squeeze in?

Francis Scott Key School, a lovely art deco building we stumbled on last weekend in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset district. Designed by Douglas Dacre Stone, Edward A. Eames, William Mooser and built with PWA funds in 1938 (https://livingnewdeal.org/projects/francis-scott-key-elementary-school-san-francisco-ca/). https://www.flickr.com/search/?sort=date-taken-desc&safe_search=1&tags=francisscottkeyschool&user_id=23806189%40N00&view_all=1

Marget Larsen, ad for Du Pont’s Color Council. As seen in Art Direction: The Magazine of Creative Advertising, vol. 11, no. 8, November 1959.
Larsen was super inventive in many ways – and, like most women in design history, criminally under-appreciated. We can’t wait to share more of her work.

Ho trovato il "torneo" che fa per me!
C'è un tipo (forse un po' svitato) che ha messo in piedi una sfida ad eliminazione diretta tra 64 caratteri tipografici. E lo sta facendo benissimo!
