Toshihiko Bito: Ka 窠 カ (2008)

Ka is a nest of beast or bird in a hollow. A nest where creatures are wriggling. A chaotic place from which images are springing.

Have you done shiny versions of your characters?

Cold Strike and Riptide are already Shiny but I do some regular variants of them. I wasn't going to make Mach a shiny originally since he's albino but I thought it would be fun so I did it anyway lol

I haven't really thought of shinies for anyone else. There will be characters introduced in the future that will be shiny though!

Researchers identify unique phenomenon in Kagome metal

In traditional Japanese basket-weaving, the ancient "Kagome" design seen in many handcrafted creations is characterized by a symmetrical pattern of interlaced triangles with shared corners. In quantum physics, the Kagome name has been borrowed by scientists to describe a class of materials with an atomic structure closely resembling this distinctive lattice pattern. Since the latest family of Kagome metals was discovered in 2019, physicists have been working to better understand their properties and potential applications. A new study led by Florida State University Assistant Professor of Physics Guangxin Ni focuses on how a particular Kagome metal interacts with light to generate what are known as plasmon polaritons—nanoscale-level linked waves of electrons and electromagnetic fields in a material, typically caused by light or other electromagnetic waves. The work was published in Nature Communications.

Thursday Update!

Different than my usual stuff. Some kinda non-standard Gunnerkrigg Court fan art. Came up with the idea for this with a friend like a year ago, drew it in the fall and I need to get a post out because my wallpaper for Month of Mecha is real behind.

Wanted a military patch, or aircraft nose-decal look, and I think I stuck the landing well enough - largely to its sheer absurdity.

okay so after my last post about the stone sky preview and how it differed from the final published version, i recalled that Jemisin once posted a snippet of an early draft of The Fifth Season, and it's so incredibly different from the finished product that we got and it's absolutely fascinating and honestly a great reassurance about just how extensive the drafting and revising process for stories can actually be???

draft: Alabaster was a third-slash-first-person POV character. canon: he's viewed through Syenite's eyes, as recounted by the narrator.

draft: Fulcrum orogenes could earn the Yumenes comm name at death/burial. canon: Fulcrum orogenes lose whatever comm name they once had, and there's no indication of whether they can ever "earn" one later. do they even receive a proper burial when they die???

draft: some Fulcrum teachers were outsider stiffs (stills) who did not live on campus and went home every day after classes. Orogenes were sometimes allowed to interact with teachers' children. canon: all Fulcrum teachers are orogenes. The only time anyone gets to leave is if a ringed orogene is sent on an assignment. Also, Guardians exist.

draft: "Threeleaders" was a use caste name??? Apparently it refers to the number of leaders in a person's ancestry. canon: it's "Leadership", inherited as such regardless of numbers or anything like that.

draft: there's a punishment that involves sitting in "the box" without being able to move or drink water or anything. canon: it's not implausible that such a punishment could still exist, but i don't recall it ever being specifically mentioned.

draft: "Antimony" (presumably, since she isn't named in this snippet) seems a lot more overtly caring towards Alabaster, despite lacking any in-depth understanding of humanity. Also, she can walk. canon: she may care to some extent, but it's not nearly as clearly on display. Stone eaters hardly ever move fluidly, much less walk. Also, at least some stone eaters do still consider themselves to be people.

I kind of want a book for the eight months between the first chapter of Tricks for Free and the second. Just an entire book of Antimony hanging out with Fern and Megan, dealing with her job, occasionally touching base with Mary or suppressing her magic, but basically just a slice of life novel there. I know, it would never happen, because there's probably like three other people who want to read that, but I really just want to read about these characters getting a break from the high drama shenanigans and just getting to be themselves for a while. I could totally go for a slice of life book about her in Portland, too, either before or after her arc in the books as they are. And one of Sally and James putting their lives back together after everything. That would be nice, too. Maybe someday I'll just write it myself, put it on AO3 for the other three people who would be into that.
