#space themed stuff

[sensiblereblogifposts]

A while ago, I posted a petition, to stop the closing of a much loved museum, Syndeys Powerhouse museum, a place that's been under threat for years.

I need your help with this once again, (especially if you are an Aussie)

After years of threatening to close down and demolish our only science, tech and applied arts museum, and one attempt to turn it into an events center, they've come back with another plan, which basically amounts to "we're going to clear out the museum and demolish most of the structures inside. We definitely have a plan to put some cool stuff back, but we can't tell you it, but it's definitely gonna be great. Don't mind that a bunch of purpose built structures to display delicate objects are set to be demolished."

(That's an F1 Apollo rocket engine, very rare outside the USA. Almost 60 years old, now delicate, but it's going.)

"We've garunteed 3 of the most iconic items (not their accompanying collections) will come back. Pay no mind that we haven't allowed for where they're gonna go, or that the one object we can't move (rare, 250 year old working Boulton and Watts steam engine) is set to end up inside a corridor)

(There used to be room, elevated planforms even)

"Oh, also, you know that museum storage hall, so close by and practical, with a loading dock and workshops, that's also sitting on prime real estate? We're building a second loading dock and workshops in the main museum! Right where the all classrooms where!"

It's supposedly a heritage restoration, but in truth, it's based of a skewed heritage report which has been heavily criticised as I'll informed, and rigged to allow the place's removal.

Almost every detail goes against the spirit of the original musuem. The orginal museum was a fun, post modern place with a sciencey vibe,

Which transitioned fluidly into historic halls, with historic products and technology to match

The Musuem has an upper entrance designed to be welcoming, full of natural light, and evoke the feel of an old grand train station. This is to be bricked up.

Rather than restore the older galleries, theyre taking several of them out reducing display space from about 15,000m²ish to about 6000m² ish.

The historic halls included restored generator room filler with steam engines. This really put the museum on the map.

But that's going.

All that is going, in favour of

This kind of thing.

The plan to do this is on display untill end of may May 30th, Aussie time. It would help a lot if you (might be only Australians) log on and make a short comment opposing the project:

Or if you cant make a submission, and still haven't, please sign that petition:

The people reporting to government planning will be see it, and attention helps.

A wicked custom order came in on my Etsy shop, requesting for a "Space Themed" Fidget Bloom! I love how specific the details were, and I thought this would make a great video to share with all of you.

You will see that there is a "custom request" option for you to let your creative juices flow. Choose from hundreds of colours, and different types of materials. Simply let me know your creative vision and I'll do my best to bring that to life. I also have 40+ of my own styles and designs for you to choose from.

Quick Q&A: Do you ship worldwide? Yes!

What happens if my bracelet doesn’t fit? I will exchange it at no extra cost.

Do you have any promotions? Yes, 20% off right now across my entire shop.

How long does it take to make? Approximately 45 minutes. (from scratch)

seeing this ask on my dash and I'm reminded of your art and holy shit. have u ever done any more of those Brazilian inspired fantasy art?

Not as much as I should!! ahhhh I've been thinking about it actually, on drawing more BR monsters and such, cause we have a lot of cool ones in our roster!

On the other hand, I'm always throwing BR stuff here and there in my work, even if it's not so obvious!

My main OC Jupiter is meant to be Brazilian/Brazilian adjacent, her name is written and read almost the same way in PT-BR ("Júpiter")

There's also Persie, my other OC, who is also BR, she's black/BR-indigenous - I drew her before as a kid, wearing Karajá accessories

And my most recent OCs, from drizzle/LAND! They are like a "Japanese idol group" sort of thing but they have LOTS of BR easter eggs going on!

"drizzle land" is a direct reference/translation of "Terra da Garoa", the epithet of the city of São Paulo, where I was born; it was called like that because it used to rain/drizzle all the time here (hello global warming *laughs nervously*)

Their above album is called "Under the Silver Rain", a reference to a BR song called "Chuva de Prata" ("Silver Rain"), famous in the voice of singer Gal Costa. I have other names for drizzle/LAND's albums in their discography, and they are all references to Brazilian Music - "Sunflowers in the Color of Your Hair" (Um Girassol da Cor de Seu Cabelo, song by Clube da Esquina), "Dance of the Butterflies" ("Dança das Borboletas" by Zé Ramalho, especially his version with Sepultura lmao) and "A Forest Named Solitude" (ref to a famous BR nursery rhyme, Se Essa Rua Fosse Minha)

AME/haru (her stage name) is Brazilian-Japanese; her real full name is Íris Santana Fujioka, reflecting her BR background, Íris is kind of a rare name here, but like not super unheard of; and "Santana" is a pretty common last name here~

Her sketchbook has the sticker of a BR meme in it lmao it's the version of it drawn by BR artist WillTirando, bc I have that exact same sticker on one of my sketchbooks sdhjfgsjhdgfjhsdf

ANYWAY! Not exactly the answer you were looking for, but I hope the other refs/easter eggs were fun enough hehe
