Obtuse Cinema: MARTIN LUTHER
http://obtusecinema.blogspot.com/2010/12/martin-luther.html
Saturday, December 11, 2010. Considered the best of several films on the life of Martin Luther (Niall MacGinnis), this 1953 black-and-white classic reveals the Europe of Michaelangelo firmly under the thumb of the Roman Catholic Empire. While still a professor of theology at the University of Wittenberg and a Augustian monk, Martin called for sweeping reforms of the Roman Catholic Church. Martin`s preaching and writings, in particular his Ninety-Five Theses. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

aquavelveta: AW, NOW YOU KNOW ME, I'M DOWN WITH DPP
http://aquavelveta.blogspot.com/2011/10/aw-now-you-know-me-im-down-with-dpp.html
Saturday, October 1, 2011. AW, NOW YOU KNOW ME, I'M DOWN WITH DPP. Oh the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky dome," as if. I doubt even the DPP. Could have shielded me much. The narrow doorways, impossible desks, and unflattering yearbook photos aside, high school was harsh. I wore glasses, I never dressed out (I don't jump and I only shower at home). Add to that I was taller than all the girls in my class, and my complexion was (is) almost perfectly clear. Weren't all demanded up-front. OD warned ...

Monday, August 29, 2011. WHEN BLOCKS WEREN'T CUBES. Lately I've had my hands full organizing the Blocklogic section. Of The Flatware County General Store. The retro collection just mentioned already rate a couple of mugs, but the arithmetic blocks (the Buffalo Mao collection) are so far the biggest part of this section. With eleven so far, Mineral Comix # 47 still has a few more surprises in store. The thing is one dice (di, dye, whatever) isn't quite right, eh? So far there are only 15 mugs in the Block...

blocklogic: The Hairy Hendecahedra Project (post two)
http://blocklogic.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-hairy-hendecahedra-project-post-two_4.html
Thursday, December 4, 2014. The Hairy Hendecahedra Project (post two). If excelsior was as ridiculously cheap and available as it once was, I wouldn't have resorted to such an odd method to try an stabilize my Corex (like cardboard, but plastic) and clear plastic tape mold. This isn't the first time I've tried pouring concrete into a Corex mold. The stained dodecaocta compound chilling on the deck with various other old experiments. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Shh, Here Come Tha.

Saturday, December 6, 2014. Shh, Here Come Tha. It sounds fun to catch a Tooth Fairy, but there's nothing funny about a Tooth Fairy with a broken leg. When I started drawing cartoons about Teefes (tea-fez) I soon realized that the highly realistic looking ones weren't near as much fun as the pen and ink onna-block-looking ones. Instead of paint again I stuck with woodburned decorations, and found the more I made the better I liked em. Did I mention unbalanced? Thursday, December 4, 2014. If excelsior was...

Monday, November 21, 2011. PORTALS2 STYLE BLOCKS CONTINUE TO EVOLVE. Or devolve, but they're definitely still changing. The first effort (antique storage cube) was good enough, even if a little ham-handed, to lead to further development of a Portals2 style block set. But the companion block in it's several incarnations kept development stalled for days. Marking accurately, and then the equally important burning correctly seemed at first to be the biggest challenges, But no! All these repairs and redesign...

Saturday, January 2, 2010. And that anger is a blocked wish." No Really! Ok, so Paul Vitti. Some begun with no plan, burned so well I was hesitant to add anything off the cuff to fill the empty faces. Then came the 17-Fish block followed by the Pin-Up block, an innocent enough wish that bit me a couple of places I`d rather not remember. Did somebody say pantograph? I used to make the pantograph pictured last post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). And that anger is a blocked wish. No Really!

Saturday, October 15, 2011. Alright so I'm not momentarily nimble enough to Hacky the Clackey, but I still love to slap them around. They sound great and the dead-blow nature of the ball-o-caps slows down the action just enough to make it fun. I've made a number of these balls-o-caps over the years, but I always tied them together with soft wire. I've recently mastered tying them up with string. Here's a few of the new ones. In the Acorn-Bamboo article I mentioned Poly. Wednesday, October 12, 2011. The b...
