Welcome to the Nexus!

How do the town people take it when youre frolicking around?

What do you mean with metal machining?

Whats your experience with dmt and other psychedelics? What about extractions?

See you around!

The townspeople are funny. Kids stare at me with their mouth open and adults try not to make eye contact. I quite prefer the kids, I get the feeling theyre the ones who actually see me whereas the adults just see themselves. In any case, someone has to dress like a member of parliament funkadelic... if no one does then soon everyone will look alike and no one can be themselves.

As for my machining, its mostly artistic. Like for an ethnobotany raffle I made a peyote statue with gem stone flower

But mostly I tend toward trying to make a point through faceting and adding gem stones to the most utilitarian of objects, like nuts and bolts

Welcome to the nexus. Awesome machine work very artistic. I love working with metal. You should try some stuff with titanium. When it's heated to high temps then allowed to cool it changes to some very rainbow like colors.

About your comment on people looking the same then not thinking for themselves. Seems to me that humans do look the same and that your clothing has nothing to do with your ability to be an individual. Not bashing your physical act of frolicking with feathers just contemplating on your view of it.

 

[Auxin]

Yeah I have a crate of titanium, tough stuff.

Being yourself openly enough for it to be a form of protest is not about people looking the same and then not thinking, its about society getting so restricted people are forced to dress and act and be a way they dont want. It becomes a form of slavery.

Thank you, your work is greatly appreciated.
