I did some late night stamp making yesterday. I also killed off three Xacto blades.

Hannah made this. It looks good.

Land of unused concepts.

Today.

This is a little test GIF I made to see what I can do with afterimages.

Stare at the dot in the middle until the image changes (in 25 seconds) then blink a little.

This is a replica Geissler tube.

I don’t know what it does, but here’s an excerpt from the label at the Science Museum where I took the photos.

The two tubes here create spectacular effects of electricity in a near vacuum. Geissler not only managed to evacuate and seal off the tubes without contamination, but made use of the coloured effects of different gases, flourescent liquids and uranium glass. Unfortunately the originals are slightly radioactive because of the uranium glass so cannot be displayed.

This is roughly what the council flats outside my window looks like.
