Working on a fiber optic jellyfish dress, using fiber optic fabric from Lumisonata! This is just pinned on my dressform to get an idea of how everything is looking. I’ll be finishing up the bodice next and after that I’ll be making some jellyfish puff sleeves!

For more progress and video of this project, be sure to check out my Instagram and TikTok!

Since the first fiber optic cables rolled out in the 1970s, they've become a major part of everything from medical devices to high-speed internet and cable TV. But as it turns out, one group of marine mollusks was way ahead of us. A new study reveals that clams called heart cockles -- so-named because of their heart-shaped shells -- have unique structures in their shells that act like fiber optic cables to convey specific wavelengths of light into the bivalves' tissues. Researchers from Duke University and Stanford University used electron and laser microscopy and computer simulations of heart cockles to discover that their shells are designed with translucent areas consisting of hair-thin strands, arranged in bundles, that deliver light deep within.

Hang on, the fiber-optics are leaking.

The fiber optics melting into light-slime was an interesting side-effect of a prompting experiment.

The image(s) above in this post were made using an autogenerated prompt and/or have not been modified/iterated extensively. As such, they do not meet the minimum expression threshold, and are in the public domain.

Details under the fold.

Midjourney V6's multiprompting was somewhat lackluster, but in v 6.1, it's been greatly improved, but in this case, I forgot the double :: to separate it, so it was one long, pretty nonsensical prompt.

Prompt: a red shirt hanging around a plastic fountain with a bright green head, in the style of desertwave, made of feathers, ed binkley, photo taken with provia, dr. seuss, liquid metal, solarizing master ,a woman is holding up something with a camera attached to it, in the style of celebrity portraits, political, glowing lights, rudolph belarski, pentax 645n, joe jusko, webcam photography

glitter, sparkly, fibre optic lights, and fluffy stuff stimboard for @thiccfarmmamma :•]

[ID: A 3x3 stimboard.

GIF 1: A glowing blue lamp with sparkles swirling inside of it, projecting moving patterns onto the wall.

GIF 2: Someone playing with a pink fibre optic light, running their hand through all the strands.

GIF 3: Glowing blue sparkles moving and flashing around a central blue light.

GIF 4: A bunch of pink sparkles moving up across a nearly silhouetted image of a planet on the left of the GIF, only the dark purple edges visible.

GIF 5 (center): Someone petting and adjusting fluffy purple and pink fabric.

GIF 6: A closeup of a makeup brush with glowing makeup on it made of purple, blue, and pink glitter.

GIF 7: Someone holding the strands of a blue fibre optic light together, then releasing them, the strands gently bouncing out.

GIF 8: Someone quickly dancing with a pink, purple, and red fibre optic whip, wrapping it around their body in various ways.

GIF 9: Someone gripping and petting and blue fluffy boa.

this restaurant has a fiber optic table!

Each box has a partner box that if you cover it up, the other one goes dark

[Video Description: an off-white table with opalescent squares scattered around it. A hand covers and uncovers individual squares. Each time a square is covered, a different square goes dark]

Fiber-optic cables stretch across oceans and wind their way underground to handle our communications systems, and scientists think that this vast network of infrastructure could be put to another use: observing Earth's surface from below.

Specifically, the 1.2 million kilometers (more than 745,000 miles) of existing fiber-optic cable could be combined with satellites and other remote sensing instruments to monitor the entire globe in real time.

Storms and earthquakes could be tracked in this way, the team behind the idea suggests, as well as ships and whales passing through the seas. The network might even have the potential to be used to spot broken pipelines.

"This could be a game-changing global observatory for Ocean-Earth sciences," says geophysicist Martin Landrø, from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU).

The monitoring would be done through the acoustic sensing capabilities of fiber-optic cables. Any flexes in the cabling caused by sound waves or actual waves can be picked up and interpreted to measure movement.

Advances in optical micronanofiber-enabled tactile sensors and soft actuators

A perfect combination of fiber optics and micro/nanotechnology, optical micro/nanofiber (MNF) is a new type of micro/nano-waveguide structure developed in recent years. Compared with standard fiber, MNF has a smaller diameter and larger core cladding refractive index contrast, so it offers unique optical properties, including low transmission loss, strong light-field constraint, large evanescent field, small bending radius, small mass, and compatibility with standard fiber. MNF-enabled flexible optoelectronic devices with high sensitivity, small size, and low power consumption have been widely used in the fields of tactile sensors and soft actuators. To date, flexible MNF sensors, also known as "optical skin," have been used to monitor pressure, temperature, hardness, pulse and breathing with high sensitivity, fast response, and anti-electromagnetic interference.

Cartoonatics - How we met

This is a little story about how Fiber and Robert first met ♡

Fiber just enrolled in a mainstream school. She was home schooled throughout her formative years and felt a bit out of place in the new environment. Robert was someone she met during Art class. They grew to be quite close friends and eventually started dating. Hehe.

Enjoy <3
