What's even the point of getting a PhD in the middle of a pandemic if you're *not* going to make a plague doctor mask and wander around campus wearing it along with your regalia?

Cheers to all of my fellow plague doctors from the class of 2021 or 2020!

@cwebber

But let's be honest, there have been *a lot* of PatriArchaeologists ...

Driving down Winkelmann Rd. and talking shit, @cwebber
asks me: "Wait a minute, was Winkelmann the PatriArchaeologist?"

I cackled, friends.

Dress update: It's looking like a functional dress! All that's left is to attach the sleeves and hem it!

I'm going to be working on my work-in-progress formal dress again at today's hack & craft! fossandcrafts.org/hack-and-cra

I got some new needles for my sewing machine, we'll see if they're less destructive to the silk than the one I had was!

We will, unfortunately, be traveling on the third weekend of September, so there will not be a Hack & Craft on September 17

And when I finish the pattern by saying “start making the rest of the half dozen” I really mean it :D

I'm not going to actually make myself half a dozen shirts, because I don't dress like a victorian gentleman every day :D , but I already have a cut of thin, red wool fabric waiting for me to turn it into a shirt :D

It's done!



I've finished making my gentleman's shirt (or Garibaldi Shirt, if we want to call it with a womanswear name) and published the full instructions online.

In this week's episode of @fossandcrafts we talk about the transition from the @spritelyproject to the @spritelyinst

It seems fitting that episode 50 of our podcast announces something that @cwebber has been working on for so long!

Episode 50: The Spritely Institute fossandcrafts.org/episodes/050

We talk about recent exciting news about the @spritelyinst, how Spritely has grown from an early research project to a larger organization (with @cwebber as CTO)! Let's advance decentralized networked communities!

At this week's Hack & Craft I'll be working on a dress for a wedding because making my own formal wear is easier than trying to find a dress that:
- Has no synthetic fabric that would contact my skin (yay allergies!)
- Is available in my size
- Isn't over $500

In July, we tried out using our Hack & Craft sessions as a user group and @cwebber gave a beginner workshop on Scheme!

If you weren't there for one of the live workshops, we just released the recording!

The Scheme Primer that @cwebber wrote for @spritelyinst is a great reference guide for the workshops if you want to follow along: spritely.institute/static/pape
