Editorial about wildfire detection.

Having been logged off unexpectedly, I was surprised and thrilled to discover that @odpomery.bsky.social did the Bluesky login screen illustration, only to find out few hours later he actually did two! Such a treat to see an artist you cherish pop up at a place you value 😃 Thank you Owen!

I thought this was great.

Pretty bored of the weather now.

finally getting into the pile of this year’s birthday graphic novels husbs got for me (it’s become something of a tradition :)). The Hard Switch by @odpomery.bsky.social is excellent. great characters, interesting story, beautifully illustrated. highly recommend!

The full illustration I did for @bsky.app !!

Nice! @odpomery.bsky.social is a brilliant artist who created the 2023 sci-fi comic book The Hard Switch (Le Jour du Dépassement, in the French edition). He also worked on a Game of Thrones game, Tale of Crows, and his work is so cute. Very neat choice, @bsky.app 🖖

Fancy a little look...?

Bootstrapping. Wraparound over illustration for a book on computing development.

@odpomery.bsky.social I'm hard to buy for when it comes to graphic novels but after a tonne of research my wife chose The Hard Switch for one of my Christmas gifts. And I'm so happy she did. I adored it beginning to end. Not like anything I'd seen before and now I'm all the better for it. Big love!

New KIOSK newsletter is definitely one for the first day back at work >>> kiosk.substack.com/p/plan-b

My dad was briefly in a short-lived medieval folk/rock crossover band a few years ago. I did the logo.

Enjoyed 'The New Yorker at 100' documentary. Makes it feel all the more surreal that I've been in it.

I'm a real sucker for art informed by the context of its creation.

Gift recommendations from Avery Hill creators! "The Hard Switch boasts one of the coolest sci-fi concepts I've ever heard, and then absolutely delivers on it. @odpomery.bsky.social's art serves his complicated universe perfectly. Stunning." - @igotkittypryde.bsky.social tinyurl.com/2hfhhc6c

Really enjoyed @trufelman.bsky.social 's latest Articles of Interest series. It focuses on military and outdoor wear this time, and made my list of the Top 5 podcasts I listened to this year. Great work. kiosk.substack.com/p/hot-wrecks

Portable computing.

The idea that you'd side with an industry that's existed for five minutes over a human endeavour that's existed since the dawn of time, is utterly baffling.

Apparently it's World Octopus Day! Mallic, the engineer from The Hard Switch, would approve. Actually, he probably wouldn't care.

Doesn't feel like anyone's talking about it particularly, but I thought Common Side Effects was great.

Was sorry to see Claudia Cardinale go yesterday. Once Upon A Time In The West is one of my absolute all time favourites.
