Damn. This has been at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens since September!
“LAIKA: Life in Stop Motion invites visitors of all ages to appreciate the painstaking work of stop-motion animation, with eight animation stations equipped with 2-D LAIKA character figures and environments that visitors can use to experiment with and create their own short films, then share and post online. The exhibit also includes puppets, sets, and video clips from all five of the studio’s renowned films.”

Marie Van Brittan Brown, born on January 7, 1922, was an African-American nurse and inventor from Queens, New York City. In 1966, at the age of 44, she came up with the brilliant idea to create a unique home surveillance device with a closed circuit television security system.
She and her husband, Albert L. Brown, applied for the patent and invented a system with a motorized camera that could show images on a monitor. That patent (#3,482,037) was eventually granted, and her invention went on to become a technological precursor to how modern day home security systems would be designed.
Brown's invention had very unique features for the time; The motorized camera at the door could slide up and down to look out of four peepholes. Anything the camera captured would be displayed on a monitor. Her system also included a radio-controlled lock that would allow the front door to remotely unlocked, and an audio-video alarm system that could be used to see and communicate with whoever was at the door.
For her genius invention, which obviously contributed to the future of home security systems, Brown was given a prestigious award by the National Scientists Committee (NSC). But for the most part, her invention has gone unnoticed and undocumented by the mainstream media and literature.
Sadly, Marie Van Brittan Brown died on February 2, 1999 at the age of 77-years old.

I visited the Stand Alone Cheese shop in Queens. They have every cheese that I've ever dreamt of and so many that I will now dream of. The people there are kind and very knowledgeable about cheese. They proved to me that I've got a friend in cheeses😉 I should've brought an extra suitcase that I could've filled with cheese to bring home. Next time, I will. Right now, the extra space I have to bring things home is already almost full of pizza, bialys, egg rolls, and Italian cookies. But I still bought some Parmesan reggiano, pecorino romano, and some asiago to take home. I'll find a way to squeeze it in. I couldn't resist. I can't wait to cook with these cheeses!!! Mama mia, this will be delicious 😋 😍 TSA always looks at me kinda funny when they see my bags are packed with food, but I don't mind because it's sooooooo worth it 😁 I love NY ❤️

Every now and then, I see something that makes me realize that no matter how different we are in different parts of this country, there's always something we can come together on.
Like how fucking stupid cops are, and how no matter how stupid things get, there's always one smartass protester.
