This is Silas, the one armed sifaka lemur. As a Tarheel I hate to promote anything at Duke, but the Lemur Center is really amazing and does great work.

I can tell I'm just going to keep making lots of these. They are very satisfying. And Christmas is only 7 months away. #origami

Man, I love a brown-headed nuthatch. Weighs only 1/3 of an ounce but will just hangout 6 feet from me like he owns the place. #birds

Sculpture of deer with antlers caught

Sculpture of deer with antlers caught

Saw the sculpture Beloved by Beth Cavener last weekend at the Mint Museum and I keep coming back to it. It holds tremendous tension and I may need to walk back over there and look at it again.

Square stairwell

One more for today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #Lines, because I love geometric themes. The stairwell at the Deutsches Museum housing a Foucault's pendulum.

It's called Trussia and was just featured in the GOC4 online convention. Working my way through some great models from that event.

The back of the model is pretty messy so I don't think so. But you could join a few on their backs and probably make a sort of kusudama

Excellent job. I've crumpled and thrown away many a sheet on Sato's designs. Your version is beautiful.

We went out tonight to see Milos Forman's last Czech film at a local theater. At the end 2 ladies are like " I think we were supposed to be in theater 4". Like what kind of patient and curious person sits through 75 minutes of Czech New Wave before figuring this out?
