This is beautiful. I have an old Hitchhikers’s Guide omnibus edition with gold lettering that this reminds me of. I should give the whole series another read. Thanks for posting this.

ohhh I would love to have this! I have a very common edition bought in a bookstore but this kind of work deserves a nice edition! :) good proofreading

;) they inspired me for the title of the work and I listened to them a lot during the dozens of hours of conception.

I recently went through most of my accounts and randomized the username, with the thought here being to limit the likelihood of one site being compromised leading to accounts at other sites being compromised. I don’t have to remember them due to using a password manager, so it’s really no skin off my nose.

I’ll use this as a reminder to everyone to improve your security. Some ideas:

use a password manager and use random usernames and passwords
have multiple email accounts, and don’t use your “main” email w/ random signups - I use a simple mnemonic, like “<user>-<purpose>@domain.com”; so “[email protected]” or “[email protected]” so it’s easy for me to remember, but unlikely for a lazy hacker to pwn other accounts (a lot of these are automated); my real email is “[email protected]”
use 2FA if offered, even if it’s stupid SMS or email based; having any extra step can deter an attacker

Sucks that people are targeting IA, I hope there isn’t any lasting damage and that this is a simple defacement/DOS.

thanks for the advices ! Would you recommend a particular password manager?

exactly ! i love his work

 

I would like to introduce you to the work of Sergio Suarez. the image comes from his site. For me, he is one of the engravers whose work captivates me the most with its size, its sobriety and its depth.

I’d put that on my wall. Very cool.

thank you ;)

thanks mate :)

thanks :) Around twenty copies have already been printed at the moment and are on sale on my site (link in my bio)

hahaha, thank you :)

thanks a lot ! indeed voyager & pioneer are my common thread !

<< What do we perceive from a star if not its radiation?

The year 2024 was an opportunity to see boreal aurora at low latitudes, the consequences of multiple coronal mass ejections.

I would lie if I said that this is what inspired this engraving because I started it in 2023 but these events considerably oriented its composition. inspired by astrophysics and science fiction, this engraving has the central theme of the sun and the stars in general. There we find, through a series of scientific and symbolic vignettes, representations of stellar nucleosynthesis, atomic diagrams, elements relating to plasma, accretion disks, magnetic fields and, the finality of these processes, radiation.

One vignette features the proton-proton chain, a series of nuclear fusion reactions that power the hearts of stars, transforming hydrogen into helium and releasing colossal energy in the form of light and heat. This fusion is the primary source of energy for main-sequence stars, like our own Sun.

At the center of the work, the symbol of the element hydrogen (H), the most abundant atom in the universe, reminds us that this primordial element is the building block of stars and galaxies. The diagram of the hydrogen atom, with its single electron orbiting the nucleus, symbolizes the elegant simplicity underlying the complex phenomena of astrophysics.

The engraving also includes illustrations of atomic structure and energy levels, evoking the electronic transitions that produce the light spectra observed by astronomers. These spectra are essential for determining the chemical composition, temperature, density and motion of celestial objects.

“Radiant” is a window into a different dimension of cosmic physics, evoking both the beauty and complexity of astrophysical phenomena. The use of clean lines and technical symbols creates a dialogue between art and science, inviting one to delve into the depths of the cosmic unknown.

This print is a celebration of human curiosity and our endless quest to understand the universe around us. >>

Mainly visual and graphic work inspired by diagrams and concepts of quantum mechanics. The central part is the representation of the double slits experiment.

 

About 24 hours of engraving to about 1 hour. from the beginning to the final cleaning. the plate is mounted on a wooden board. I'm waiting for my order of ink and paper for early August. This will be printed around August

 

The lino plate for "Quantum" 70x50 cm plate - Engraved by hand in around forty hours

 

Hand-carved and printed linocut on certain fundamental principles of quantum physics and the double slit experiment (vertical central part) all mixed with abstract elements. all forming a graphically coherent and SF-inspired whole
