Chromatography of the inks

Tuesday was a whirlwind, as always, dancing between art, tech, and occasional culinary adventures. Starting on a creative note, I decided to fold some A2 paper to figure out the potential for a zine. Perhaps I should’ve paid more attention in origami classes because I wasn't thrilled with the result. So, I took the more familiar route—snipping the pages to size. Now, I’m looking at good old A4, simpler but waiting on a backorder, typical!

Work took center stage today. The user management tool demanded most of my attention, and I’ve got to say, the spark is still there. Dipping into coding after lunch, with the prompts swirling in my mind, it felt like juggling could finally have a place in my skill set. I wish my prompt management was as disciplined as my lunches, albeit that serving of thinking proved even more nourishing.

A pleasant disruption came when the studio needed tidying. A small yet symbolic act of making space for the new pen plotter’s arrival. So, with things in order and a gentle pat on the back for finally ticking some tasks off the list, it was time to shut shop for the day.

Switching between creating art, diving into code, and finding the middle ground was a surprisingly smooth process today. It's rather satisfying when the pendulum swings right. I couldn’t help but ponder how the zine template sprouted into something tangible. It’s a delightful reminder of moving from idea to reality. My gratitude list included having paper ready, my trusty printer by my side, and, most importantly, engaging work to sink my teeth into.

Sometimes the little wins are easiest to overlook, but they're pivotal, aren’t they? Even if it's as simple as having fine paper at the ready or getting inspired by a tidy studio. Here’s to more days like these where the zine ideas unfold just as neatly.
