I had to make one: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2094215. Projection is shorter range than I was hoping for but it’s still fun and gets the kids thinking.
Bis Repetita
Second deployment of Laser Portraits at a public event. It was a lot busier this time around, and totally fun as previously. Also very stressful until a few portraits are behind me. It doesn’t matter how much I test and check, something always goes wrong but I got it all figured out just in time. I’m also refining the formula for how to present and interact with people. The PewtyBots performed all evening without missing a beat.
The Stranger
This is why people hate books. It’s not meant to tell an interesting story, it’s an exercise in the absurd by the author. I only finished it because it was short and I thought something must happen eventually. The dude doesn’t even get his head chopped off at the end. I picked it because it’s a classic and I heard a journalist I like talk about it as a life altering book. I don’t see it in the least. Nicole told me Camus is responsible for the stereotype of “ennui” as seen in Inside Out 2, makes sense. This book has zero purpose, it’s written to be boring and it’s quite effective in that regard.
Do I feel any shame being the uninstructed critique of renowned authors? Not at all, this book sucks.
