To Type, Shoot Straight, and Speak the Truth...

Well, the fun ideas keep bouncing around the Typosphere! Joe is now mixing the idea of Stereograms with the thermal printing cameras to make 3D Thermal Stereograms, which I of course had to see if I could get working with my viewer, because my brain doesn’t do the crosseyed 3D thing, magic eye stereograms don’t […]

New run of Austin Selectric Rescue’s 3D Printed Elements. I ordered TWO, and he sent me EIGHT. Heh, I haven’t touched my typebar machines in weeks, it feels like. Been busy typing with my Selectrics and the VariTyper so much – seems unlikely that’ll stop soon given how many elements I need to put a […]

Get’cher Custom Selectric Elements from Dave, Hot & Ready! Currently in the earholes: Played on the 2004 HP Pavilion CV4307cl, as a test of the Media Laptop’s Altec Lansing soundbar. Pretty good with this sort of clean harp jazz. (:
