Toshihiko Bito: Ka 窠 カ (2008)
Ka is a nest of beast or bird in a hollow. A nest where creatures are wriggling. A chaotic place from which images are springing.

Environmentally-friendly InSb/InP colloidal quantum dots for fast and sensitive short-wave infrared photodetectors
Applications such as LIDAR, 3D imaging for mobile devices, automotive and augmented/virtual reality or night vision for surveillance, rely on the development of short-wave infrared (SWIR) photodetectors. These devices are capable of seeing in the region of the spectrum that is invisible to our eye since they operate in the spectral window of 1-2 µm. The SWIR light sensor industry has been dominated for years by epitaxial technology, mainly based on devices made of indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs). However, several factors such as high production costs, low-scale manufacturability and incompatibility with CMOS have confined the epitaxial technology to niche and military markets. In contrast, the potential of SWIR photodetectors made of colloidal quantum dots (CQDs), nanoscale semiconductor materials, has attracted significant interest in recent years due to their appealing features, such as low cost and compatibility with CMOS architecture, among others.

Today, I just learned of the element Antimony, a metal from Earth's crust, and it struck me as the material that would form the School for Evil, possibly paired with some of the blueish aesthetics associated with Evelyn Sader.

I kind of want a book for the eight months between the first chapter of Tricks for Free and the second. Just an entire book of Antimony hanging out with Fern and Megan, dealing with her job, occasionally touching base with Mary or suppressing her magic, but basically just a slice of life novel there. I know, it would never happen, because there's probably like three other people who want to read that, but I really just want to read about these characters getting a break from the high drama shenanigans and just getting to be themselves for a while. I could totally go for a slice of life book about her in Portland, too, either before or after her arc in the books as they are. And one of Sally and James putting their lives back together after everything. That would be nice, too. Maybe someday I'll just write it myself, put it on AO3 for the other three people who would be into that.

okay so after my last post about the stone sky preview and how it differed from the final published version, i recalled that Jemisin once posted a snippet of an early draft of The Fifth Season, and it's so incredibly different from the finished product that we got and it's absolutely fascinating and honestly a great reassurance about just how extensive the drafting and revising process for stories can actually be???
draft: Alabaster was a third-slash-first-person POV character. canon: he's viewed through Syenite's eyes, as recounted by the narrator.
draft: Fulcrum orogenes could earn the Yumenes comm name at death/burial. canon: Fulcrum orogenes lose whatever comm name they once had, and there's no indication of whether they can ever "earn" one later. do they even receive a proper burial when they die???
draft: some Fulcrum teachers were outsider stiffs (stills) who did not live on campus and went home every day after classes. Orogenes were sometimes allowed to interact with teachers' children. canon: all Fulcrum teachers are orogenes. The only time anyone gets to leave is if a ringed orogene is sent on an assignment. Also, Guardians exist.
draft: "Threeleaders" was a use caste name??? Apparently it refers to the number of leaders in a person's ancestry. canon: it's "Leadership", inherited as such regardless of numbers or anything like that.
draft: there's a punishment that involves sitting in "the box" without being able to move or drink water or anything. canon: it's not implausible that such a punishment could still exist, but i don't recall it ever being specifically mentioned.
draft: "Antimony" (presumably, since she isn't named in this snippet) seems a lot more overtly caring towards Alabaster, despite lacking any in-depth understanding of humanity. Also, she can walk. canon: she may care to some extent, but it's not nearly as clearly on display. Stone eaters hardly ever move fluidly, much less walk. Also, at least some stone eaters do still consider themselves to be people.

I have decided to redesign my periodic table OCs from when I was 11. This is Antimony (left) and Arsenic (right), they/any for both. Idrk why 11 year old me made them twins.
Under the cut is some rambling about the universe these characters belonged to as well as their 2015 designs
I was an edgy child in the lamest possible way (aka about atoms) so most of the developed characters are poisonous, explosive, etc. They were all evil because of this. And they were all around my age (I've aged them up for this drawing because I am now an adult). A common theme for the comics I made was their lab in the basement where they experimented with poisons. The elementary school poison factory is probably the funniest thing I will ever create. I wrote a super melodramatic story about them for creative writing in 6th grade and every day I shed a single tear because I don't have access to it anymore.
One of the more interesting things about looking back at myself pre-diagnosis is how many of the characters I created that were autistic. These two were very autistic. Can you guess what their special interest was. That's right it was poison. I was a very inspired child and not at all hung up on that one trait for them.

Some beautiful art from 2015. They are going on vacation with Chlorine. For your convenience I have transcribed the comic:
Cl: What are you bringing, Arsenic? As: This bottle. Cl: Painkiller? As: No, no, it's poison. Cl: *sigh* Cl: Is that all? As: No, I'm bringing more poison, books, paper, even more poison... As: *falls over* mmph Cl: Wow. Sb: I find it necessary to bring two suitcases. One for myself, and one to help Arsenic carry all of [their] stuff.
I thought I was very funny. Also I though this was peak comic art style and would ignore anyone telling me ways to improve it. The 2023 drawing is more or less how I imagined them back in 2015 and I might have been able to draw them more detailed had I not ignored any and all constructive criticism. Do not ignore that stuff (this has been a PSA).
