Would there be an audience for pen reviews specifically from the point of view of pen plotters? I broached the topic with JetPens, and got the "we'll think about it"

Today I learned that Google Images has a setting to filter for just Creative Commons licensed images.

Powerlines at dusk. A layered plot with ecoline red and Colorverse dark blue inks, B5 sized plot. #penplotter #moire #plotterart #algorist #printmaking

Maybe someone will come up with a Javascript popup that resembles the "your iphone is too close to your face" warning.

5 months ago this was real. Now you can go all day -- easily hitting 90%, for most cases more.

“Leaves” this limited edition print comes from a finicky pen using Troublemaker Inks. This makes it quite different from the digital representation. B5 sized plot. #penplotter #plotterart #algorist

The stellar work of @lb-allix.bsky.social - a #plotparty #postcard. Merci #penplotter #plotterart

This is the postcard I received from James (www.instagram.com/jaymezd/). Thank you so much. #plotparty #postcard #postcardexchange

"Fixing to jump" B5 sized plot with AxiDraw, Arabian Rose ink. #penplotter #plotterart #algorist #printmaking

An epiphany in making pen plotter art is that the digital artwork is also instructions for making art in the physical world.

Has anyone considered putting PLA filament in a clothes dryer to dry it out? :)

“Look” a B5 plot on AxiDraw using Arabian Rose Ink. #subtle #penplotter #plotterart #algorist

I received this postcard from @peterkagey.com for the #plotparty postcard exchange. Its a … complex shape :). Thank you so much.

Sometimes, when you figure out an algorithm, everything looks like a nail. #plotterart #algorist

A #parametricportrait made as a gift. Technical pen on white cardstock, 150x100mm, plotted on AxiDraw #penplotter #plotterart #algorist

Received this from @redsmakingsomestuff (IG) for #plotparty #postcard

“Affection” - a B5-sized plot with Lamang ink from TroubleMaker Inks, plotted on AxiDraw. #penplotter #plotterart #algorist

You know - python may as well be the operating system.

Today we have a mini #plotparty organized by @penplotart on Instagram. The prompt is #ghost; this is a #stereogram. B5 size #penplotter #algorist

Correct me if I am wrong, but you can't share a Siri Shortcut between users, right? Like a tiny app? #ios #macos

The “Forever” stamp system is a way of hedging against future postage price increases. I tried to buy them at the USPS vending kiosk, and instead got the priced QR-code stamps. And the postal workers won’t let me swap them for Forever Stamps.

justaqrcode.com I really like the spirit behind this project. Call it "pay it forward"-ware. Small things make a difference.

While I do enjoy making envelopes from magazines, I also get a ton of commercial mail (adverts mostly). I’m repurposing those envelopes to send out #plotparty postcards #penplotter #mail

Well crap. I miscounted.

Just figured out that in particular contexts, autocorrect will capitalize my variable names while editing my script. #instantbug #macos

I hope it’s an illusion, but I think more people are adopting the speaking cadence of online short form video influencers.

Why are so many tips for ios26 about making behave like the old iOS?

Does anyone have a total immersive video of experiencing solar eclipse totality for the Apple Vision Pro?

Some pretty interesting books here. And it supports a good cause (EFF) www.humblebundle.com/books/electr...

I’m not sure if this is vibe-coding - but I’d like to dump a bunch of one off scripts into an LLM and ask it to package them up into a working Inkscape extension.

I have a working macOS system - I don’t have a compelling need to switch to macOS 26. Specially after reading that I may have to reinstall homebrew and python libraries.

Worried this might be relevant soon youtu.be/PUtI3xoaHx0

Well this is interesting: an open source inkjet printer www.notebookcheck.net/Open-Printer...

Designing for stereograms can be a little tiring for the eyes.

Without electricity, a heat press can be just a press.

This is going to be a fun plot. Can you see? #stereogram #vectorart #algorist #plotterart #printmaking

This is a stereogram. Which opens all sorts of possibilities

congrats @georgetakei.bsky.social

AI guided image trace vectorization is a long ways away.

I had this crazy idea to use Granite3.2-Vision as a crude image trace machine. I fed it an image and asked for an SVG. It kept outputting python.

Apparently I had this pin on me while attending a conference. On AI.
