I know, I should probably be doing other, more constructive, things at the moment considering my review board is tomorrow, but I just couldn't resist. I know a my posts have been pretty content-heavy lately so I'll try to keep this relatively quick (I still have a paper on Patty Hearst to polish up, too).
The piece you see above is a fuse piece from my Glass as Process class that I had this semester. It's regular window pane glass with pieces of dried-out coral I picked up in Mexico sandwiched between it before it was fused. Something made the glass crack like that, and I'm thinking maybe the salt because it was deffinately dried out when I put it in there. I'm pleased with the result and would like to try more, maybe next year.
And because I was so amused by it, I'm going to put a link in here for this amusing backmasking website. You can download and hear all these song clips played forwards and backwords with whatever it is they're supposed to be saying. A lot of it is BS but some of it is pretty funny. I particulary like Weird Al's backmask in 'I Remember Larry'. It's something like "Gee, you must have a lot of free time on your hands."
Anyway, back to work for me.
