My studies at Medici were interrupted for a time by events in real life. Since I got back in town, I've been trying to catch up. I missed one Drinking and Drawing class. The assignment was to draw a face. I did this one which served double duty because the assignment I missed was to draw an animal.
The subject of course was TL, hero of song and stories in real life. You can tell he's the sort who wears a tweed cap when driving his immaculate '59 Nash Metropolitan. The car has an elaborate number of chrome logos on the back that might have been taken from other cars given the disparity of fonts and sizes, but TL assures me that it was a factory option. The trunk contains 23 bags of Cheddar Jalapeño potato chips, and a 5 gallon drum of vegetable oil, which he uses instead of gasoline. Lays sponsors his F1 races, he explains. He also knows how to use a computer and how to mask text so that the supposed author doesn't see it until after it's published.

I also went through the 202 book on Blender, and learned more about how the interface works. This included going through the preferences and doing things like making PhotoShop the default editor. The program can work with a 3D mouse as well, which might be fun to play with.
DJ Keli has been doing a trance story-time around midnight on Sundays at KPO. I went to it for the first time, and enjoyed it very much. The story this week was Rapunzel. We discussed rampion, but no one had tried it. Was it really that good? Or was it a comment on exploitation, the child becoming a commodity, traded for a bowl of lettuce?
