“Night.Frost” 《夜。霜傳》| Day 12: Feathers

12. Feathers | ShangGuan YueYou + Xiao Yan (上官月優 + 小炎)

“We’ve tracked it down to about 850 meters northwest to where Team Beta is currently located. Team Beta, confirm—”

“It’s mine,” a young female voice crackled over the communication network, her tone cold yet almost trickling with the kind of eager that indicated the speaker’s desire to prove her worth.

“Team Alpha, you do not have the permission to pursue. I repeat—”

“Let her.”

“C-Captain ShangGuan?”

“It’s time to see if she has what it takes to take over MSC.”

After sending her partner LingHu Zhe to go around the sector where their target was last sighted to search for higher ground and set up his equipment, ShangGuan YueYou cautiously made her way towards the center of the marked area. The beast had apparently fallen after being hit by several exorcists’ attacks and had hidden itself in the mass of greenery of the park.

In the distance, the cityscape lighted up in brilliant patterns, but the park itself was tenebrous, and the few meager streetlights only casted deeper shadows that drifted eerily with the motion of the wind.

A few meters in front of her, something red-gold on the ground caught her attention. YueYou stooped down and with both hands, picked up a feather triple the size of her own palm, the smooth crest was slightly ruffled, but it didn’t take away the beautiful iridescent glow of the cochineal red melting into plum blossom pink on the surface of the feather.

“I’ve got a trail,” YueYou reported, and with soundless steps, she began to follow the eclectic scatter of feathers until the trail led her to the target.

In a small clearing, a giant firebird with milky gold eyes was resting uneasily, its breaths labored and uneven. The flames on its wings that’d seem so majestic and dangerous before had faded into small, pathetic flickers and spurts that looked unbecoming on a beast its size.

“I’ve got the target in my scope,” Zhe reported on the other side. “YueYou, whenever you’re ready.”

“Got it,” YueYou muttered as she approached the injured beast while pulling out her white jade xiao*. She was about to blow into the mouthpiece of the instrument when the bird, as if sensing another presence, snapped its head towards where YueYou was crouching behind a bush. From this distance, she could clearly hear the beast’s warning gnarls barely squeezing past its throat, its cloudy eyes struggling to keep themselves open.  

YueYou took another step forward, now entirely exposed to the firebird they’d been hunting since this evening.

“YueYou, what the hell are you doing?” Zhe gulped.

“Do not shoot unless I tell you to,” YueYou murmured, her red-eyed gaze never straying away from the bird’s golden irises — wary but nonlethal — and she took another step, then another. In those eternal golden eyes, YueYou saw no intent to kill or hurt, only fear, pain, and even a hint of innocent curiosity, which pulled at YueYou’s heartstrings like an insistent song that demanded to be listened to, to be understood.

When she was close enough to tell that the bird wouldn’t make any sudden movements, she put the tip of her xiao to her lips, and a deep, tender melody wafted through the air and embraced them. After hours of struggle, the beast finally closed its eyes, and in a whorl of blind, bursting flames, it transformed into a small, red-plumaged sparrow.

YueYou carefully gathered the unconscious firebird into her palms, the frail body shivering but thankfully still warm with life, and said, “it’ll be okay now.”

*Xiao (蕭): a Chinese vertical end-blown flute.

*Xiao Yan is what YueYou named the firebird later.

Trichy exporters made a record during this pandemic situation. During this coronavirus outbreak for the last hundred days almost all international flight service has been suspended. There is no regular passenger or cargo services. But some flights have been operated gulf countries to rescue Indian citizens over there. Many Kerala people are working in the gulf countries like that money Tamil people are working there. During this point of time upon special request by the state governments the Government of India operated some special flights to rescue them. Also some special flights have operated from the gulf countries to Tamilnadu and Kerala by the request of the Government of India. This is just one way flight operation, means there will be no passengers in one way. During this empty one-way operation sanvi exporters started to send goods like fruits vegetables spices flowers to the gulf countries. Like this, from Varanasi, Coimbatore, Cochin, Trichy exporters sent various products to the gulf countries. But Trichy made a record break export around 230 tons of fruits vegetables spices flower were exported to the gulf countries. The number of flight operation is higher than Tamil Nadu to the Kerala although the quantity of products have been exported from Tamil Nadu (Trichy ) is very very high compared to Kerala. #export #exports #exporter #Exportproducts #exporters #exportquality #exportproduct #exportfurniture #Exportnews #Exportdata #Exportdetails #exportimport #exportbusiness #exportjewellery #exportmanager #exportidea #exporttraining #exportevent #exporttamil #exportfromindia #exportopportunities #exportprice #exportloan #exportinsurance #exportimportdata #exportonion #Exportrice #exportwine #exportworldwide #exportbuyer (at India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CChbtVDBHJ7/?igshid=1f83sjp85w6wx

MA Fashion and Textile Practices Major Project Path - 12th August

So now I had created my template and practice piece that represented my Protest T-shirt, I wanted to do the same for my Anarchist of Love T-shirt, so I began to follow the same template. I found a couple of websites which had a good selection of love songs to get my teeth into and then that set the ball rolling to trigger more personal songs. Music is an emotional experience for me, I think that’s why I don’t listen to it very often, I invariably start crying! I’m a big indie rock fan so I thought looking at indie love songs would add a unique edge. Love songs don’t always have to be about being sentimental and overtly romantic. Once I had found suitable lyrics I created a Design Map as before to plot out the layout of the T-shirt.

Initially I wanted to design a T-shirt about love that was multicoloured, bright and eye catching, but then that didn’t represent the aesthetic I wanted to achieve. It was a T-shirt about being an anarchist of love, so it had to look like a newspaper or a billboard, where you were willing to literally wear your heart on your sleeve (or T-shirt!) I decided that incorporating red into the black and white mix would be apt. Our traditional ‘Red Top’ newspapers grab attention like no others  - like the Daily Mirror front page on the Sex Pistols I showed earlier - and the colour red is considered to be the colour of love after all, but why is that? 

Red:

It is known that the colour red can affect us physically - simply observing the colour can enable increased heart rate, blood pressure and respiration. It makes us feel more energetic and confident, and can provide comfort, it’s a sexy colour, so there are many reasons why red is associated with love. Although red is very much the oxymoron of the colour wheel, it’s often used as a colour for warning, like the signs on the road - ‘Do not enter!’ and ‘Stop!’ Where would horror films be without the colour red? It’s the colour of blood and instills fear. Like the use of the red balloon that character Pennywise the clown carries in Stephen King’s tale ‘IT’.

As I discussed in my previous blog entry regarding colour, colours can be interpreted in different ways depending on your culture, although the colour red is the most used colour in national flags. In China for instance the colour red is a protective colour. This theory comes from an ancient folk tale regarding a man eating beast called the Nian who only attacked at the end of the lunar year -Chinese New Year. The beast was overcome when the villagers discovered it  disliked light, loud noises and the colour red, so they made firecrackers, adorned their houses with red paper lanterns and dressed themselves with the colour for protection. Now at Chinese New Year these traditions still continue.

The Aztecs discovered that using an extract from the female Cochineal beetle mixed with water produced a potent red dye. A pound of this dry extract would require the use of around 70,000 insects, which in the time of the Aztecs was more valuable than gold. The Aztecs may have discovered how to make and use extract, however it was the Spanish which introduced it to Europe around the 1500′s. The colour quickly took on where it was used mainly to produce textiles, many of which were used to produce gowns for the aristocracy or uniforms for armies. Red was perceived as a powerful colour.

The colour inevitably made its way to the artists paint palette where it was mixed with a binder to produce a vibrant pigment known as Lake. If your funds for new materials were a little tight, the colour could be made from shreds of dyed cloth, but the results were not hardly as vibrant as the results Lake could achieve. There was a drawback to its use however, whilst the colour remained vibrant on textiles it faded through exposure to daylight on canvas. Within oils it had to be used in excess otherwise with only minimal use it would fade quickly. In the late 19th century artificial colours were produced, such as ones made from coal rat called Alizarins. These new artificial pigments not only gave the same vibrancy but better longevity and offered a much cheaper alternative. For the sake of the Cochineal beetle, this was probably good news as it almost died out in its native homeland.

Whilst on the subject of love, why is the red rose so symbolic of the emotion? We could say that it’s all Shakespeare’s (1564 - 1616) fault when he penned in his romantic tragedy Romeo and Juliet, when Juliet declares: 

“What’s in a name? that which we call a rose. By any other name would smell as sweet”.

But the rose has had significant meaning to cultures far earlier than Shakespearean times. In Western culture the rose was believed to have been created by the Greek goddess of love herself; Aphrodite. After her lover Adonis was killed by a wild boar his blood and her tears soaked into the ground and from that grew red roses, although this story has many versions and some say the wildflower Anemone grew instead. In Roman mythology it is said that wealthy Romans gave red roses as symbols of beauty and love. For thousands of years China was the main cultivator of roses, roses were said to have been grown in cultivated Chinese gardens dating back 5,000 years. According to Hindu beliefs the Goddess Laxmi - who is the Goddess of fortune and prosperity -  was created from 108 large and 1,008 small rose petals. Many depictions of her show her sitting or standing in a giant rose and holding roses in her hands. Her husband, the God Vishnu was deeply in love with her, thus cementing the idea that roses were strongly connected to love and romance.

The Victorians used flowers a as floral code to portray their emotions. Publicly declaring your undying love to the object of your desire was not socially acceptable in the Victorian era, so they developed a floral code to say what they couldn’t. This code wasn’t solely used for declarations of love, flowers were used to send messages of sympathy, friendship, desire etc. Each flower had a different meaning, and when combined in certain ways could say specific things. Through the use of this code the Victorians instilled in us the importance of flowers and what they mean to us today.

20th Century Typographers (2017) states the renowned Artist and Teacher Josef Albers said of the colour red: 

“If one says ‘Red’ (the name of a color) and there are 50 people listening, it can be expected that there will be 50 reds in their minds. And one can be sure that all these reds will be very different”.

Albers was a teacher at the Bauhaus Weimar from 1923 to the school’s dissolution in 1933. He taught the fundamental ethos of Bauhaus, that design should be based primarily on the properties of the material used and the function of the design. Along with fellow teacher and artist László Moholy-Nagy he taught this preliminary course until 1928, then solo until 1933. After his stint at Bauhaus he and his wife - Bauhaus student and fellow artist Anneliese Fleischmann - moved to America where he began to work at Black Mountain College in North Carolina. Here he developed and wrote the course Interaction of Color. Albers was obsessed with colour and its use. The course was a first of its kind, he wanted to describe and show how colour behaved, he described colour like it was a sentient thing. For centuries colour had been perceived as a science, from Newton’s discovery of the colour spectrum to that of the colour wheel used in the school of Bauhaus itself. Albers was uneasy with the concept of the colour wheel and believed it served of little practical use to an artist, he wanted to show that colour behaved in certain ways, he believed that we perceive colour in varying degrees and that as a medium it is bent on deceiving the viewer. He catagorised colours into three distinctive areas: Passive, Deceptive and Unstable but he did recognise that colours were predictable to some extent and that they ‘sat’ together well. In 1963 the course was finally published, 33 years after its inception and in 2013, a ground breaking digital edition of the Interaction of Color was developed in the form of an app for the Apple iPad. The 50th Anniversary Edition publication below appears to be supporting his quote in regards to the several ways we perceive the colour red:

To me the most memorable of any ‘Love’ T-shirt that incorporates the colours black, white and red is that depicting graphic designer Milton Glaser’s famous logo ‘I ♥ NY’. On my first trip to New York it was one of the first things I wanted to buy because it represented a place I had only dreamt of going to. Also, I knew I could wear it once I got home as it was a fashionable item of clothing and still is! 

In 1976 when Glaser was a young New York designer just starting out, the city was on the decline. Crime rates were worrying high and many of the wealthier, middle class New Yorkers had moved out of town. Something had to be done in an attempt to restore some faith in the city, so the New York State Department of Commerce devised a campaign to do just that. The slogan ‘I love New York’ had already been mooted by Ad agency Wells Rich Greene and a jingle had been composed to be played between prime time TV shows. All that the campaign required was a strong logo to complete it and Glaser was brought in to do the job.

It was reported that in a yellow cab on the way to a client meeting he pulled out a red crayon from his pocket and quickly scrawled the idea down on a piece of paper. He then later adapted it so the text stacked on top of each other to line up the four elements. Using the heart instead of the word ‘Love’ was one of the first of its kind, akin to the use of emoji’s today. Chris Lowery (2017), president and chief strategist of Chase Design Group said as such:

“The I ♥ NY logo Milton Glaser created so many decades ago was really the world’s first emoji. In a diverse, multicultural city like New York, anyone who saw it instantly knew what it meant”.   

At the time Glaser worked pro bono, and when he was told the campaign wouldn’t run much past a few months he decided not to copyright the design. However New York state’s Economic Development Corp did copyright the design, and now after over 40 years it is still one of the world’s most recognised logos. The day after the horrific terrorist attack on New York on 11th September 2001, Glaser looked to the logo once again in an attempt to build moral. He signed the left side of the heart and added ‘more than ever’ underneath.

The modified logo appeared on the front cover of The Daily News on September 19th and the students at Manhattan’s School of Visual Arts produced a matching poster free of charge to be distributed around the city. Toufan Rahimpour (2017)  COO of Logoworks says the logo has stood the test of time for a reason:

“I ♥ NY was a symbol of its time (a “scrappy” logo for a “scrappy city”) that became so culturally omnipresent it transcended itself. It’s no longer just a logo, it conveys emotions. It represents the spirit of New York.”

I’m not really sure where to throw this  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. It’s not in the outline. Oh well. Beta AU, roughly late 1800s. Contains spoilers.

In the years since the old peridot lost her pearl (not mine, never mine) to the Earth Rebellion, her quarters fell into disarray. It wasn't so much that she had expected Mist to pick up after her, but that she had firmly entrenched herself in planning her return to Earth to check the Cluster's progress. Perhaps Kyanite had insisted that her assistant go in her stead, but Peridot had reasons to go back that had nothing to do with the Yellow Diamond's ridiculous pet project and she certainly wasn't going to entrust Peridot 5XG with them. 

The plans laid scattered over a shaggy old couch that Mist once might have occupied to watch Diamonds-approved media on the viewscreen, and they were pulled up and drawn on every time Peridot thought of something new to add to the three great robonoids she designed to help her. In case the Crystal Gems were still on Earth and might have somehow survived the Diamonds' attack, she needed contingency plans. The robonoids just needed a power source and some fine-tuning of the artificial intelligence once she got those gems. While she had sources in mind, she needed to be able to smuggle those sources away, first. Ironically, the idea came to her when she made an excuse to visit that monument to Pink Diamond's love of the exotic, her zoo. (Just doing a routine systems check, she told Holly Blue Agate as she glanced sidelong at the handful of amethysts who survived the war for Earth. Upon recognizing her as the Kindergartener who made them, they flashed her quick grins and murmured assurances the moment the agate's back was turned.)

First she had to test whether her idea was sound. After half a dozen tries, she managed to enclose a spare wrench in an olivine-green bubble, and it took another handful of attempts to get the sending motion right. The bubble disappeared.

It did not appear again. She checked the rarely used rest chamber she only visited to dust off her monument to loss. It wasn't there, either. Perplexed, because all the documentation said that stasis bubbles should return to the gem's home, Peridot returned to the main room to pace and think over her options. A second test produced the same results: the stasis bubble disappeared for parts unknown. A quick call to the peridot currently managing the Kindergarten she was made in revealed that the bubbles hadn't appeared there, either. She sent a drone with a third test bubble, and that was destroyed before it could start transmitting video on its subspace feed.

Peridot 2AA benched that idea; it wouldn't do to lose valuable power sources. She would simply have to pursue another avenue of acquisition.

.*.

"Aw, damn. Another one?"

Twig craned her head over the watchtower's parapet at Scouter's exasperated tone of voice, dropping her cards for the time being. Far down into the canyon that made up the Beta Kindergarten, a lime-green bubble appeared to join the other two. The difference between that and the others was the little ball that moved inside it. Before she could act or tell Scouter to wait, the pale jasper took aim with her flintlock rifle and shot down both the bubble and the rotating ball inside it. 

"Did you have to shoot it?" Her voice was dry and maybe a little arch; of course Scouter would shoot it. She took shots at anything that moved if she was bored enough.

"Your eyes are crap," Scouter stated, unaffected by her tone of voice, as she pulled the rifle's strap over her head and settled the rifle along her back. "You didn't see the camera iris on it. That thing's a spy."

Any amusement Twig might have derived from poking at Scouter's tendency to shoot first disappeared. "Didn't the Crystal Gems say they wanted to be alerted in case we came across Homeworld tech?"

Scouter arched an eyebrow at her tone. "Don't see why we can't tell them now."

"All right." Twig gathered up her cards. It wouldn't do to have naughty cards carried away by the wind. One of the kids might come across them. She straightened and dusted herself off once she pocketed the cards, taking care to ensure that all her clothes were presentable. "I'll go let Jasper know. What was that other thing? The second bubble?"

Scouter peered over the parapet again, where two bubbles hovered three-quarters down into the uneven sandstone walls of the Kindergarten. "A... flower? Metal, looks like a hibiscus. Weird pink tint to it. Might be rose gold. First bubble had a wrench made of some alloy I don't know. Blue tint. Third bubble: camera iris in a green ball. Had a pair of wings like a dragonfly's. That enough for you?"

Twig supposed she shouldn't be surprised that Scouter could see wings and a camera iris when she couldn't; Scouter's eyesight was phenomenal. If it wasn't for Scouter's awkwardness when trying to pick up girls, she might almost be jealous. "Perfect. Thanks." She winked to take the sting out of her words. "Try not to fall all over yourself when reporting to Rose."

Scouter flashed the skinny jasper a rude gesture and left with a huff. Twig grinned after her until she was out of sight, then leapt into the chasm to gather up the bubbles and what remained of the tiny flying camera. It might have been fascinating to play with, especially when human cameras were big, clunky things requiring flash powder and standing in place for an hour, but there was no point in dwelling on what might be.

Jasper was harvesting cochineal bugs that feasted on her cacti when Twig found her, grumbling curses at the tiny insects as she scraped them off and into Weaver's basket. Mother draped herself on the bench outside of Jasper's apartment, looking for all the world like she was snoozing. Twig still wasn't sure whether corrupted gems actually slept. "Next time I'm dragging Weaver out here and making her harvest her own bugs," Jasper growled as Twig approached.

"But Jasper," Twig began in a fair mimicry of the big carnelian's whine, "it's too bright outside! I don't want to do actual work!"

"Heh." Jasper turned as she squished one of the bugs between her fingers. The red mess it left behind was Weaver's pride; it could be rendered into a lovely, steadfast crimson dye when she had enough of them. The smirk on her face faded when her eyes fell on the bubbles. "Where did those come from?"

"Don't know. They just appeared in the Kindergarten. Scouter went to report the machine thingy to Rose." With that, Twig held out the wreckage in her hands. The little gears and springs were so tiny that she was pretty sure humans couldn't hope to reproduce with their current technology, and there was some green goo still clinging to the parts that she couldn't figure out. "She shot it down. Notice the lenses?"

Jasper merely grunted, which in her terms meant that Scouter had made the right call. Her attention turned to the bubbles and lingered on the one with the metal hibiscus. "Who makes green bubbles?"

"None of us Beta gems." Twig didn't know a lot, but she did know that bubble colors tended to correspond to gem colors. The only green gem she knew was Mother, and their attention turned to the corrupted gem at once. Twig was pretty sure they were both giving Mother similar speculative looks. 

The corrupted gem, aware of the attention on her, lifted her head from the bench. It tilted as if she was thinking about something she would never be able to share, and then the eyes fell on the yellow-green bubbles. There was some flash of recognition, and she got off the bench to trot up to them. Twig reached out with her free hand to give her an affectionate pat, but Mother avoided it entirely to peck at the closest bubble. It popped easily, allowing the metal flower to fall into her claws. She shifted on her feet as if unsure of what to do, then turned and fled to her little hiding space in Jasper's quarters. 

"We're never going to figure her out, are we?"

Jasper had her thinking scowl on. At least, that was what Twig thought of it. "Don't tell them about her reaction." Jasper didn't have to explain why. None of them wanted their beloved corrupted gem under the Crystal Gems' scrutiny. Maybe Rose Quartz might one day figure out how to heal corruption, but they loved Mother too much to let her linger in stasis with little chance to experience at least some kind of life outside of it.
