Mips Protogen

More fur suit bits.

The start of my new fur-suit head base of Clover.

Finally completed the ground glass for my camera. Now all I need is just to get film.

(lenses project light upside down so that is why the commodore is upside down and flipped on the ground glass for anyone who doesn’t know)

I’ve got a camera.

The most important part of my large format camera came today

Finally got an assembler loaded on my c64 with usable disk drives… so happy to have this working.

Huge thanks to Darkk Dragon for foxing my commodore drives and systems for me.

Oooo ibm Color Graphics Adapter. You could throw a Hercules card in their and get a daul monitor setup

Some cool night time pics I took at #fcl2025

Some cute pics of Roki and Lawrence together at #fcl2025 I took digitally.

While I'm waiting for the film to develop and scan from #fcl2025, I figured i would share the digital pics I got.

here's some pics of my friend Lawrence in his new fursuit

Theirs a telephone museum in Maine too. Awesome place to take a black-and-white film camera.

Work on mips 2.0 begins

I moved, so my home isn’t in Newport anymore

This is what my home town looked like In 1952

If you open a spectrum analyzer while watching a CRT their will be a massive spike at around 15740 HZ. Because this frequency is within what some people can hear the deflection yoke sounds like it’s ringing. This is the horizontal refresh rate of the CRT.

This is my record and laserdisc collection atm, and I keep finding more as I unpack from moving.

I do love the styling… I got mine new in box for 20$ in an antique store. Best antique store purchase ever

I was thinking it looked like a ti-84. Crossed with the remote from pleasantville

This remote is from 1989 and is a fully learning programmable. These 38 buttons are like macros and can be set to anything. I have it setup to a modern Roku. This thing feels fantastic to hold and use. These routinely sell for 15-20 bucks on eBay. This makes all modern remotes feel like trash.

I’m also currently working on saving up for negative lab pro because it does a much better job at reversing negatives once they’ve been scanned. I’m hoping that very soon. I’m gonna be able to come back online with much higher quality film photos for y’all to view.

I apologize for the delay in me posting more FCL photos from last year. I unfortunately have had dust to get embedded in some of my film, and I have to rewash most of it. I’m currently working at the moment on moving out with my girlfriend and will hopefully have a less dusty scanning environment.

Photos of my friend @rokidumbyote.bsky.social taken at FCL 2024 on Kodak Gold 200 Medium format film

I found 2 laserdiscs to add to my collection. Singing in the rain is a really famous musical from the 50s. And high noon is a western that takes place in real time.

6/21 seems like a good day to be at camp

GTA 3

I mean we put up with ads in our streamed movies now. As long as you don’t miss more then 5 minutes, the movie viewing experience isn’t any worse then streaming with ads. Just lower resolution

I would argue that a few skips here and their could be a fun once and a while novelty. Definitely isn’t something for critical viewing tho. Theirs something nice about knowing that your disk is it’s own unique viewing experience just like it’s vinyl LP roots.

This is the only form of gambling I partake in.

I managed to pick all of this up for $25
