Okay it’s the day we cut Richlite as a ramp-inspired backdrop to the skate shelving system. More info as it develops. This will all go in the blog post. #materials #concept #finishes #artist #designer #studio #skateboard #artwork #typedesign

The black Skatelite ramp panels went up smoothly. That material is impressive. Brackets are up. Moving on the skate deck shelving. Done! Now for the two additional shelving next to the window… #richlite #maple #materials #concept #finishes #artist #designer #studio #skateboard #artwork #typedesign

I bought the tool secondhand somewhere in #Edmonton, #Alberta sometime shortly after the beginning of the #covid19 #pandemic, as one of many quasi-random #tools and #materials I would end up testing and using to create my own masks that would be safe for me to wear for long periods and provide the best degree of homemade #PPE protection I could manage whilst also avoiding problems with #allergies (such as metal on nose-fittings). 3/x #TrialAndError #testing #experimental #experimentation #safety #health #CovidIsNotOver

The upshot is that, starting with my kitchen 'nerve-centre' and then spanning into other rooms over time, these various crises have resulted in what I call #strata. The lowest strata is #DIY mask experiments and making. Above that is the first attempts at #HeatMitigation. Then there is #AirQuality mitigation, and then some blending of these in upper strata depending on access to materials or new approaches I can try without risking violating my #lease. Except, of course, it turns out there is always a catch. 11/x #messy #stacks #materials #clutter

Now, the Hoarding Foundation of Alberta is, imnsho, great. 🙂 Prior to the beginning of the #covid19 #pandemic I had gone to their in-person support group and found some very useful strategies for dealing with what I recognised could become a significant problem. Back then, they weren't even a formal organisation yet and I'm pleased that they've come so far to provide much-needed expertise on this disorder. Check them out here! 🙂 https://www.hdfa.ca 13/x #hoarding #materials #objects #accessibility #Alberta #yeg
