notes on my edgar lineup (spoilers ahead + long post!)
OVEdgar and Base Edgar are wearing mikey's jacket <3


OVEdgar is wearing black (the same color mikey wears when he sneaks into Tier 2) while Base Edgar wears red (easy to hide blood stains)
Base Edgar and Edman wear pastel nail polish; OVEdgar wears black (really, who is Mustardseed if not the emo iteration?)
the background is a blurred and flipped version of the IHBTTF cover
Edman's bracelet matches his and mdawgs eye colors (idea from @/savoureux on discord)
Edman loses most of his jewelry in OI, but he keeps one necklace—you can see it tucked into his waistband
i played stardew valley for the first time last saturday, which inspired me to make the inventory using pixel art
i have no clue what a bug looks like. i kept googling "bug surveillance" but photos of cameras on bugs kept appearing?? what i drew honestly just looks like an arduino circuit speaker. sorry Mustardseed


i started this project the saturday before finals and finished the following monday. i did not shut my desktop off for this entire period of time.
originally, the edgars were going to rotate! i scrapped this idea because it added a lot of in between frames.
BONUS FACT: the jacket you see in this post has the OVER logo on the sleeve, but i draw the 101 timeline jacket with the OVER logo on the front: an askew patch for an askew timeline.
#ive been so delighted seeing everyone notice little references#so i wanted to make a post pointing out some details + stuff from while i was making it#long post#woe.begone

We're looking at making/buying a non-cloud doorbell camera for the house. I'm not afraid of working with an Arduino/Rasp Pi, etc if necessary, but obviously if I could just buy something affordably, I'd rather do that. Basically something where someone could ring it and it would ping people on the local wifi (or maybe through an API like Adafruit IO, but not Amazon, etc). Anyone have any recs?
(@robustcornhusk this seems especially up your alley)

oh man your art is amazing. any tips on how to get creating art with old tech like you do? I love the idea
thank you!!! <3 there are soooo many different ways to approach it. really any old CRT TV/monitor you can acquire is a perfect start. ask around if you don't have one, they might get harder to find but in my experience a ton of boomers still have em lying around (and will be overjoyed to part with them)!! as for camera, I used an iPhone SE for years and loved it, you don't need anything too fancy.
if the CRTs are all dead or no longer easy to find, you can definitely use an upscaler and a capture card. don't let the CRT hunt scare you away; it's like a tube amp but for visuals. it's not gonna make or break good art, and i've used a capture card for a different aesthetic as well! it's just one of many ways to render the analog signal.
beyond that, if you already have a digital art style or have the discipline to develop one, just pick up a copy of Aseprite and an HDMI to composite converter and you're good to go! whether you learn traditional pixel art techniques to adapt, or just downscale your art style, it's a pretty low barrier to entry there.
if you're more hands-on and want a glitchy aesthetic, the Dirty Video Mixer by Karl Klomp is a go-to first build. a camcorder + VCR/DVD player + dirty mixer combo is a classic setup for video artists. or if you're more into software, you can build an 8-bit creative code machine with an ESP32 devkit; there's an Arduino library for analog video based on Sega Master System emulation.
if you want to do the vector-style aesthetics like my oscilloscope pieces, look into 'oscilloscope music'! I personally use OsciStudio hooked into Blender, but there's free software as well.
last but not least, just follow your sense of wonder, experiment, try whatever. except don't open up the case of your CRT TV because it has super high voltages even when unplugged and will kill you

Revised 3d-printed lens board for my large format lens from 1850. It is a big chonker for a lens that only covers 4x5, but it has been a pleasure working to get it back into image-making after more than a century out of service.
Lots of challenges remain when trying this for image making. This lens pre-dates even waterhouse stops, so has a fixed aperture of about f3.7 (which is enormous and super fast in large format terms), and has no built in shutter.
I still don't have a serviceable shutter for it, so to get into image-making sooner without wasting film, I'm trying out direct cyanotype photography. The image below is my first attempt: a 4.5-hour exposure on paper treated a month or so before the attempt. This image is inverted from the original blue paper negative. This was a poor choice of subject for such a long exposure (there are flowers here, many concealed by the deteriorated chemistry) as they moved in the wind.

I'm working on modifying a 1950's vintage electric Packard-style shutter into something Arduino-controlled so I don't have to have the camera plugged into the wall and rely on super old wiring. When I have a functional shutter, I should be able to find some low-sensitivity film (ISO 10 or less) to take some regular film photos.

AH I REMEMBERED WHAT I WAS GONNA SAY EARLIER but it's kind of stupid, lmao.
So my partner is getting into brewing beer and I got them a Tilt, which is a Bluetooth hydrometer. It measures specific gravity and temperature, which are things you want to know so that you don't kill your yeast or whatever. Except the sensor's Bluetooth range is super short, and it basically runs via a phone app, and the temperature we're logging currently is the crawlspace, accessible via the staircase closet. So they were like, wait, what do we do about this, because I can't leave my phone in the closet, that's my alarm clock.
In a kind of ridiculous turn of life imitating art, I was like, hold up, I got just the thing right at my desk. Bam. Old phone. We just needed to scrounge up a charger because the battery is so dead that after charging just enough to power on it claimed it was at 53% (to be fair to it, there is a very real chance that it's correct, and it just holds no charge at this point so the capacity is just THAT low) and now it lives in the closet logging sensor data.
And I was like, you know...didn't I just solve a major story detail with a much larger version of this...yeah, no, this is all vaguely familiar somehow, power supply issues and all. Kind of cool that the concept works though. Kind of weird that it came up at all?
We are not gonna talk about the fact that I still have at least two more ancient-ass phones in a drawer where that came from because look, man, sometimes you just need a camera/mic/mini computer with Bluetooth and wifi that fits in a pocket, and people just get rid of these things, but not me. I actually could build a shitty security system out of them if I was reaaaally inclined. I mean. I'm not. But it's technically possible.
For real though, If I pick up any stupid maker projects I still high-key am thinking about slapping Bluetooth into a necomimi headset and running that through an Arduino and learning to code just enough to let me skip songs/change the volume on Spotify with my brain, because it's entirely doable, and I mean yeah I could do that on my phone remotely too, but that's not funny, now, is it. I'm just not sure it's $350+ of parts funny. Kind of a big investment just to prove the point that haha look I am the extremely ADHD type of lazy where I would rather solve a problem via the most convoluted and complicated Rube-Goldberg type ass machine way possible rather than just perform a single simple action.
YEAH I'VE BEEN THIS SCATTERED ALL DAY AND I REALLY SHOULD GO TO BED SHOULDN'T I. I started playing Satisfactory. Mistakes were made. I'm going to dream about conveyor belts again and I did it to myself...
#you know I used to mostly blog about witchcraft and paganism#and now I'm like. you know what I want to do? chain an EEG sensor to the Spotify API and skip songs with my brain.#it's kind of like magic when you put it like that. maybe things haven't actually changed that much after all#the headset idea actually came about bc I'd gotten so far into the writing zone that I literally just. tried to skip a song with my brain.#because I had so much reploid characters on my mind that it just sounded like a normal course of action I should be able to take#obviously it didn't work and cue me sitting there for a full 3 seconds going 'why didn't it. wait. why did I think it would?'#followed immediately after by 'YEAH BUT I PROBABLY COULD DO THAT ACTUALLY'#because you just Cannot write a character like Glitch without it rubbing off on you a little bit and WWGD kicked in real hard lmao#well obviously he'd [ridiculous chain of ideas ending in 'anyway I installed some shit and now I can control Spotify with my mind']#and I gotta say I do not like the idea of sticking a sensor on the *inside* of my skull. sounds very bad.#but it doesn't have to be on the inside to work soooo there's that!#I have a friend who for quite a long time had a rare earth magnet in one finger so he could find live wires by touch#he ended up removing it for work eventually but when I say I was jelly. man. but also kinda squeamish about it.#I do not like sharp things and I am Very funny about my fingers as an artist/writer/used to be musician.#but man that sounds cool. I want the magnet senses. I don't think I want them enough to have a magnet under my skin though#I think I wouldn't use them enough for that to be helpful actually lmao#anyway do I even need more senses? probably not. mine are already unfiltered and loud as shit.#'boy I wish I could sense magnetic fields' says idiot guy who can hear the mains hum even with no electronics currently turned on#like when the power goes out I can FEEL the fucking difference in the air and it's unnaturally quiet and kinda spooky#I do not think I need help on this front actually. I think I got it handled pretty okay lol

Prompt #004
��You move into an apartment where each room holds a different version of you.”
Standing in front of the apartment door, I hesitate. I’m not sure what I’ll find on the other side.
People have described it as a sort of pleasantly haunted house: like a wholesome version of A Christmas Carol. But knowing myself, it’s just as likely to play out like something directed by M. Night Shyamalan.
I muster up the courage, turn the key, and step into the hallway. I check, I'm alone. I double-check. Still alone.
I release a breath I didn’t realise I’d been holding.
The hallway looks like it was lifted straight from one of my Pinterest boards. Whoever designed this potential nightmare at least did it with a wabi-sabi twist. I should probably read into that and decipher the metaphor being presented, but instead I’m already moving towards one of the three doors branching off the hall.
I open the first.
Grainy light filters through the cracked door. I peek in, but my eyes take a moment to adjust. I blink more times than I care to admit before realising the entire room is in black and white.
Not metaphorically. Literally devoid of colour, like one of those old MGM films I used to watch on rainy Sunday afternoons.
Then I spot myself, swaying in the middle of what I now recognise as a 1950s kitchen. Humming along to Lil’ Darlin’ by Count Basie.
This version of me doesn’t look much older or younger, just more… domestic.
I recognise her, though. She’s the part of me that feels most grounded while harvesting tomatoes or shelling peas. She has a playlist called A Sunday Kind of Love, filled with jazz standards. She quietly dreams of slow dancing in this very kitchen. Or being held while reading by the fire.
A softer, less guarded version of me.
I realise I’ve gotten a bit emotional watching her. Something deep in my chest stirs, a quiet ache for a simpler, slower life. So I leave her be, undisturbed. Let her sway to the last notes of the trumpets, submerged in her own world.
Back in the hallway, I approach the next door, this time with a bit more confidence.
I open it to find the living room of my first apartment, dimly lit by the flickering cold light of the television. On the rug, cross-legged, sits a younger version of me. Xbox controller in hand. Focused. Determined to sneak Ezio Auditore into a Templar base undetected. Shouting something at the screen about the camera angles changing mid-jump.
Cables, resistors, and Arduino kits are strewn across the coffee table. On the sofa, a laptop is rendering some chaotic After Effects experiment, its fans at full throttle, audibly threatening to achieve flight. Next to it: a camera bag with more lenses than I will ever learn to use.
I sit beside her. I must be around twenty-four here.
She’s anxiously chewing her bottom lip, head bobbing along to Kerry King’s riffs. A lot of nervous energy in that little body.
She’s the polar opposite of the woman in the kitchen. Hard to believe they’re the same person. But they are. They’ve lived through the same trauma. They just cope differently.
One suppresses, seeks out stimulation. The other, guided by self-knowledge, knows when to slow down.
I simultaneously pity and admire her. She has a long, tiring road ahead. Soon she’ll be confronting her own demons and unlearning her own toxicity. But she’s strong. Stronger than she knows. She’ll fight battles most people wouldn’t even notice exist.
I wish I could reassure her. Maybe warn her not to date that one guy with the fear of both commitment and abandonment. But that, too, will become a valuable lesson.
So I leave her. She mumbles “Requiescat in pace” to the screen. I mentally whisper the same to her.
Back in the hallway, I reach for the last door. I try the handle. It sticks, blocked by clutter on the floor.
I put my shoulder to it, push. It resists, then gives.
I’m met by my teenage self, sitting in her bedroom. In front of a mirror. Dressed in an oversized Kurt Cobain shirt. A shoebox in her lap, full of dried rose petals, handwritten letters, poems. The breakup box.
She’s crying. Loudly. Messily. A CD clicks into the stereo. The first notes of Górecki by Lamb begin to play.
I immediately close the door.
Hard no.
I’m not sadistic enough to watch myself musically self-flagellate like that.
There are some ghosts I’m not ready to exorcise.
So I turn back toward the first door in search of tea and, maybe for a little while, the company of that simpler version of me.
