Wisps / Fili for #texturetuesday

So this was an experiment! Got a big jar, filled it with water, put lights on either side of it and then added some food dye. It was also a failure as it was not lit bright enough and I had to re-mix the dye because it was too thick. However, we got this weird picture out of it! ✨

Happy birthday to chemist William Henry Perkin (1838-1907)! This #lino block print ‘William Henry Perkin Discovers Mauve’ is about how the British chemist & entrepreneur made the serendipitous discovery of the 1st synthetic organic dye: mauveine. ⁠
⁠
Perkins entered the Royal College of Chemistry in London in 1853 when he was only 15, studying with August Wilhelm von Hofmann. 🧵1/n

Late because who has time to both do Halloween and make a post to #makershour about it on the same day?

Q1. Who are you and what are you working on?

I'm a guy who just does stuff even though I have no formal training in the stuff I do. It's more fun that way...?

For over a decade I've mostly been the stay-at-home parent on Halloween, helping my kid with their costume (or making it entirely), then not having time to make one for myself, and needing to do academic work (every evening, every weekend... ugh) anyway. I've been the parent at the door giving candy to other kids. I haven't gone out in costume for over a decade.

This year I decided, come hell or high water, I was going to make myself a costume. I decided to make a wizard robe, which would also be wearable at burns (e.g., #burningman #regional events).

I took some pics (a few, at least) of the process and, for a change, actually posted them. Here is a reasonably informative build log on imgur.

(unfortunate thing: imgur doesn't have a way to put alt-text on photos, I don't think; I will have to do something different next time).

#Mice made transparent with a #dye used in #Doritos
Stanford scientists has found an agent that can reversibly make skin transparent without damaging it. #Tartrazine, a popular yellow-orange food dye called FD&C Yellow 5 is notably used for coloring Doritos. Hong’s team dissolved the dye in an aqueous solution and created a transparency-inducing lotion of sorts. It worked, because the dye reduced the difference in refractive index between water and lipids in the skin.
