Salut Rennes et alentours !
J'ai décidé de monter une asso d'entraide et de partage de connaissances autour de Linux, des logiciels libres et du réemploi, et plus si affinités. L'idée serait de proposer des permanences et des ateliers par exemple, où chacun pourrait venir pour découvrir, s'informer, partager et transmettre.
Qui veut se joindre à moi ?

Repouets appréciés ! Merci !

A couple favorite Earth Tone pots from my last kiln load. I sent them to a gallery this week for an upcoming show. The theme is geometric patterning. I can’t wait to see the work from the other makers. It will be very cool to see everyone’s pottery grouped together—unique, yet united by a common theme. #pottery #ceramics #WildClay

I’ve been making bedside water bottles for years but I don’t make them very often. They’re inspired by Mexican botellones—small clay water jugs with an accompanying cup which serves as a cover. Sometimes the cup has a handle. I’ve also discovered a Congolese version of the botellón. It’s such a simple and effective idea that it’s no surprise it would appear in multiple cultures. #pottery #ceramics #beautility

Acabo de leer el acuerdo de 14 puntos firmado por EEUU e Irán y básicamente son todo concesiones al régimen de los Ayatolás. Todo. Incluyendo 300.000 millones en reparaciones de guerra y el descongelamiento de más de 140.000 millones en activos congelados. Y la puerta abierta a que el Ormuz sea de peaje.

Esto es una humillación sin paliativos para Trump y su camarilla.

I love the simple sophistication of these garden irrigation tools. Ollas are one of those ancient technologies that probably have multiple origins—different groups across space and time figuring out a similar technique. I’ve read about their historic use in China, Central & South America and North Africa.

Working on ollas is great practice for me. It’s a return to the basic technique of pulling a cylinder, which is the first skill you acquire when learning to throw pots on the wheel.

@mdione I’m sorry, but I don’t understand the question and don’t know what “pot sized” means. There is no limit to how small one could make an olla. The smallest size I make holds about a pint. One of the points of an olla is to reduce the labor of watering. I would say the contents of an olla should last at least one week to be considered effective. Would a very small olla accomplish this? What are we calling “small”?

It’s not really hot tea season anymore but I felt like practicing my #teapot making skills—and yes, I still consider it practice. I’m always tweaking the design.

With this iteration, I thickened the handle for comfort & durability, as I’ve been doing with my mugs and pitchers. I also added a lid catch that you can barely see beneath the rim, to the right of the knob.

The bodies of my teapots are modeled after African water pots.

Teapot still hot from the kiln 🔥 a successful kiln load is a great way to end the week. I haven’t gone through every piece yet, but there are always a couple of pots in the mix with glaze imperfections, which is to be expected. From what I can see so far, everything looks really good. I can see all of the time, effort, patience and detail I put into every single piece. Have a good weekend, everyone!

I’m having another open studio event this Saturday. Just wanted to share what my studio looks like. It’s the garage behind our house, converted into a #pottery workshop. That’s a wood fired #RocketKiln in front and I have electric kilns inside. I could run my biz solely online (and I was grateful to during early pandemic era, 2020-2021) but that feels strange since my pottery pulls so much from my surroundings. It only makes sense to share it with other people who live here. #Florida

@Bumblefish here’s a blog post I wrote that included links to download diagrams and other additional info. Mine was simple to build but it’s an earlier iteration. The diagrams have become more complicated over time (toward the goal of more even heat distribution within the kiln.) Hope this helps.

A few months ago, a Canadian judge got her #amazon , #google , #uber, credit cards accounts, etc. closed.

She was doing her job investigating war crimes made in Afghanistan, including by the #USA

That offended Americans. They decided to close all her accounts, which they have control over.

I'm expecting this behavior to become more and more common.

@PaulWay @treleanor in the context of the person behaving poorly being someone you have a personal connection to, calling it in can be an effective way to change their behaviour because it’s less shaming. It’s hard for people to imagine themselves doing better when they’re feeling shame. But if it’s not someone you can have a conversation with, and you don’t know anyone else who could do it, there isn’t an option other than call it out or let it go. Sometimes people reach a point where they just can’t let it go, and they need to name the problem behaviour.

already known...but let's put a spotlight on the next ICC judge (from Canada) who is cancelled from the digital life. No Amazon, no Mastercard, no Netflix account...

Just because Trump doesn't like the ruling of an independent international institution like the International Criminal Court.

ICC judges have been forcibly removed from most digital services, credit cards, and banks.

"Amazon, obliged to implement the sanctions as a US company, had cancelled her account."

j'avais trouvé son précédent livre faible sur pas mal de sources ; je me souviens de la petite ferme de crypto au Congo qui dans son livre était un truc gigantesque servant de cheval de Troie à la Chine, mais sans source précise citée, et en creusant (un peu) cela ne ressemblait à rien d'autre qu'à une ferme minuscule, unique, sur un terrain en terre battue, financée sur fond français (ou européen). Donc pour argumenter contre la crypto, son livre n'était pas le bon outil malheureusement, on m'avait cloué le bec comme ça.
