My top 24(?) screenies from 2024!

Tagged by the lovely @changingplumbob, thank you Kirsty <3

I literally don't know if I even have taken 24 screenshots this year. Let's see...

1, 2 and 3: Some screencaps from a photoshoot I did with my revamped simself. I have MANY variations - check it out, none of those are the one on my current profile picture, or with...

4: Oh Kinha, that's cheating! That is an edit, not a sceenshot! Shhh! I literally don't think I have enough screenies to make this post. Anyways, once I can figure out how to do my tags and navigation posts, expect to see this one in my pinned <3

5: An outfit I made for Sienna that I needed to save for other kiddos too! It's so cute!

6: Vlad. What are you DOING walking around Evergreen Harbor? Not even on my lot, since Journey Delight - the founder of my personal Whimsy Legacy challenge - doesn't even have a house at this point. Just... passing by. It was like... the second night? Anyways, appreciate how marvelous this woman is (and how wacky the sims can be sometimes)

7: Speaking of personal legacy challenges, here's Hendrix Baccinus, the Mint of my NSB save. (The light makes him look blue-ish, but I swear it's mint.)

Look at him. Hot. Handsome. The male quota of this post. He is a baby and a pathetic wet cat of a man. This mfer tried to kill himself! (No joke, he autonomouslt went swimming when his energy was low on Sulani, because he was burnt out. Dude, sims used to be able to juggle a job and an Uni degree!)

I still love him <3

8, 9 and 10: Obligatory Arielly Vespertinai appreciation. Look at her. Gorgeous. My baby. Watcher's favorite (little chew toy nomnomnomnom) <3

Have you seen her? yes? Well, go look again. Until you're mesmerized enough to forfeit your entire mortal posessions to this siren of a woman. Nobody understands the amount of adoration I hold specifically for this little bean. She could kill me and I would still thank her. She consumes my thoughts almost daily even though I have an entire cast to think about so I can support your story babygirl unleash my brain!!!

Also, obligatory gloating that this woman was elected Bronze Medal in @simblorbo-bracket's 2024 SIMBLR SEXYMAN TOURNAMENT. Yes, you heard it right. She's a Sexyman. And is the Sexiest™ of the human competitors.

11: Speaking of Vespertinai's, a draft of Arielly's mom, Elysiann! Still unsure if I want them biologically related or adoptive (makes some sense with part of the lore, screws some other part. UGH.)

don't be fooled, this woman has SUCH a resting bitch face outside of CAS.

12: And on that resting bitch face note, Scione Vespertinai! Ari's younger sister, of whom I have shared custody with @momoception <3 (because someone in her game needed to simp over Lucius Holt, and given I'm his #1 fan in the real world...)

Could you tell my game's eyelashes were still broken on those last 2 pics?

13, 14 and 15: Enough of sim pics for a while, appreciate Elio Alvoretter's (aka, Ari's bestfriend, partner, and overall soulmate) (no, literally.) room. I'm insanely proud of it even if it drove me majorly crazy at some points.

(We do NOT talk about the small desk under the desk. It was fixed after.)

16: On the topic of building, a little bar decoration I made using TOOL. It took me longer than you'd expect.

17: Okay, back to sims because it's all I have at this point. I forgot this cutie's name, but she never really left CAS despite this picture. She was for a BC that never really happened, so I'm saving her for another opportunity. Maybe a spouse for one of my families. Maybe a founder for another legacy? She's kinda packed with CC, so I don't think I'll ever set her for dl.

18 and 19: Some of my girlies for other simmers! Moxie and Apolline were some of the ones I had the most fun doing, and I think that the unused photos deserve a place to shine too.

===================

Unfortunately, the most I could is still short by 5. But then again, 2024 was THE year for me, in terms of personal growth, so TS4 kinda fell behind (a LOT. Some of those pics have literal months of gaps between them)

I am not sure who has been tagged already or not, but if you're seeing this and you want to participate (even again), you're tagged!

✴︎intro post✴︎

Greetings! I’m Key (she/they), and Kiranokira on AO3. I’m an adult, and I often post and reblog content for adults.

I’m a fic writer who dabbles in editing and making long, unhinged meta posts on my hyperfixations. It’s a good time for people who like that kind of thing. Welcome!

Currently, I’m merrily entrenched in the Land of Queer Thai Series and have been since 2020. I’m also soul-deep in the Hellverse of Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss.

As you’ll quickly find out, my favorite actors are Boun and Krist, and my current reasons for living are KristSingto’s sanctioned RPF series The Ex-Morning and Boun’s “I kinda just want to have an excuse to chew on Prem in a socially acceptable venue” vampire series Revamp.

My Pretty Firm Top 15 Thai QL Series as of August 29, 2024 Are:

1. Be My Favorite (2023) 🔮 2. The SOTUS Trifecta (2016-2018) ⚙️ 3. Until We Meet Again (2019) 🧶 4. Triage (2022) 🚑 5. Dark Blue Kiss (2019) 🐻‍❄️ 6. Between Us (2022) 🥦 7. Something in My Room (2022) 🎭 8. Cherry Magic (2023) 🍒 9. Not Me (2021) 🏍️ 10. Manner of Death (2020) 🔫 11. Cutie Pie (2022) 💍 12. GAP (2022) 👠 13. I Feel You Linger in the Air (2023) ⏳ 14. The Eclipse (2022) 🌗 15. He's Coming to Me (2018)  👻

I also never really leave any fandom I’ve loved, so an incomplete list of things you may see reblogged here is as follows:

Word of Honor (Millennial power couple of exhaustion/rage)

Guardian (AKA the novel whose sloppy protagonist the author definitely forgets on purpose when updating her friends about her children)

Yuri on Ice (if we never get anything else I’ll still be profoundly grateful for what we did get)

Boku no Hero Academia (the only time I’ve been equally obsessed with two ships featuring the same character)

Merlin (idiots /affectionate)

Voltron (klance /ominous)

Ossan's Love (makiharu /simpery)

ON ASKS/FIC REQUESTS: Feel free to send me asks or fic requests! I always have a very, very long list of WIPs, but if my brain chemicals react to something strongly enough, I’ve been known to drop everything and write the new shiny thing. (Chances are higher if it’s a one-shot so the happy chemicals aren’t snuffed out by the guilt chemicals.)

Thank you for dropping by, and may you have at least one reason to smile today.

And thus, that. 🤷‍♀️ Now, what about her Winter Clothing? 🤔 That, I so interested! 😊🤗 Yes, I said her 'Winter Clothing' because, while her 'Autumn Clothing' was an interesting as Shadow R.'s A/W Clothing, my eyes on her comfy 'Winter Clothing'! ❄️🧣🧥🥰🤗 Which first I saw her on Feb 2021 💘, I immediately liked her comfort style. Even her revamped in Mar 2024 🍀 was good enough, so much so, that Tory decided to gifted one of her spare Winter Clothes to the Speedster Twins (Spot 🐶🏎️ & Riya 🐰🏎️)!How nice. 🖤💛🥰🤗 Nowadays, she's all adorable in a invisible mode while wearing it aforementioned 'Winter Clothing' in baggy-sized fashion. 🥰🌸👕🧣👖🤗

Well, that's all for now. More daily "Baggy Cloth-Ober" artworks to come, until the end (of October)!😊

Certainly! Let's delve deeper into the fascinating world of Smell-O-Vision and its related technologies.

### Hans Laube: The Inventor of Smell-O-Vision

Hans Laube was a Swiss inventor who introduced Smell-O-Vision at the 1939 New York World's Fair. His system used a series of pipes connected to a circular mechanism carrying vials of odorous liquids. A control board released these scents, which were then wafted to moviegoers through pipes hidden beneath their seats¹. Laube's vision was to enhance the cinematic experience by synchronizing smells with the action on screen.

### Mike Todd Jr.: Producer of "Scent of Mystery"

Mike Todd Jr., son of the famous film producer Mike Todd, produced the 1960 film "Scent of Mystery," the only movie to use the Smell-O-Vision system⁸. The film was a mystery thriller where scents played a crucial role in the plot, providing olfactory clues to the audience. Despite the innovative concept, the technology faced challenges such as synchronization issues and high installation costs, which ultimately led to its limited use⁸.

### Rhodia, Inc.: The Company Behind AromaRama

Rhodia, Inc., a subsidiary of Rhône-Poulenc, developed the AromaRama system, a competitor to Smell-O-Vision³. Introduced in 1959, AromaRama released scents through a theater's air conditioning system. This method was used in the documentary "Behind the Great Wall," which featured a variety of scents to enhance the viewing experience⁶. While AromaRama was less sophisticated than Smell-O-Vision, it was an early attempt to integrate olfactory elements into cinema.

### Technological Insights

Given the era (1960s), the control unit for Smell-O-Vision likely utilized analog technology, including relays and vacuum tubes, to detect audio frequencies or tones. The coding would have been hardware-based, with specific circuits tuned to recognize trigger signals. This setup allowed the system to release scents at precise moments during the film¹.

### Further Research

To uncover more about the control unit's manufacturer and its underlying technology, you might explore:

- **Historical archives**: Look for patents or technical documents from the 1960s related to olfactory technology.

- **Film industry publications**: Articles or interviews from that era might provide insights into the companies involved.

- **Libraries and museums**: Institutions focused on film history or technology might have relevant materials.

Feel free to ask if you need more information or have other topics you'd like to explore!

Other Arcades - Regeneration

THE ARCADE - DEWSBURY

The Arcade in Dewsbury has been inhabited for many years now, but it is about to get a revamp and made into a new space. I thought this was a really interesting project. It has not been completed yet but looking into their process could really help me

On their about section of their website it reads:

"The listed Arcade, with its beautiful roof and ironwork is close to many Dewsbury hearts. Built in 1899, it was a popular town centre thoroughfare right through to 2014. A combination of falling town centre footfall, poor management and lack of investment by absentee owners, saw the Arcade empty out from 2011 and finally close in 2016

After considering all its options, in May 2020 the Council purchased the Arcade and as one of the lead projects in the ‘Dewsbury Blueprint’ is investing money in a full refurbishment.

The Arcade consists of 15 small shops, bookended by 4 larger units at the Market Place and Commercial Street ends of around 500 sq ft per floor. The shops are around 200 sq ft. There is a second floor running above the shops that will offer 9 studios that may be suitable for artists

The design team for the Arcade and Markets, BDP Architects, were appointed by the Council in January ’21 and the intention is that the Arcade opens in 2024.

The Arcade cannot be what it was. It cannot consist of shops relying on passing trade. We have to create reasons for people making a special trip – specialist shops (that probably have an online presence as well), culture, events, creative work etc. We also need to work with the Dewsbury Market team to make the town centre worth visiting again."

Reading this it shows that they understand that the current format that the arcade is in isn't working and it needs to change. I feel like this could be in a similar scenario to Bournemouth where the shops that are thriving are chains. I also like what they said about arcades being used as a walkway as they said the shops within it rely on passing trade. Instead you have to create reasons for people to come in.

SHAWLANDS ARCADE - GLASGOW

The plan for this arcade is to transform it into retail units and 300 new homes. They also want there to be wide pavements to allow for outdoor seating and cafe culture.
