Art

via Julé Cunningham: Danish artist and climate activist Thomas Dambo spent his summer in the US creating gigantic troll-like creatures across the country out of recycled materials. Five are in Western Washington where he worked with Indigenous tribes and artist John Halliday to make sure his work respected their traditions.

via Rust Weekly: Just wrote my first ever blog post on making fake pixel art with Rust and Blender. Feedback appreciated!

via Dave Polaschek: I joined artisans.coop a while back. If you’re an artisan who might sell stuff, their lifetime deal is steep, but seems worthwhile, if only to give Etsy some much-needed competition. More in the blog post there.

I recently attended a concert from Derek Gripper who specializes in reproducing various African string artforms. (If he’s performing near you, I highly recommend going!)
