And the conference is over. I wish I had found the time to take pictures of all the signs and other print products and decorations we made for the conference, but I was too busy.
People, organizing a conference is a lot of work. Turns out organizing a conference with loads of experimental features and events (such as a sound performance installation and an art exhibition) is even more work. But it was definitely worth the extra effort.

After a month of being sick and almost managing to die along the way, I finally got started on a new creative project. I learned, once again, that being able to make stuff (drawing, painting, crafting, building …) is a crucial factor in keeping me sane.
Actually, that is not much of a surprise. But those last few weeks were the worst and I’m still in a rather wibbley-wobbley my-body-doesn’t-quite-does-what-I-want-it-to-do-and-I’m-all-dizzy-and-exhausted state of being.
It’s evolving! Now it’s just the elder gods that are still missing. And the cinema in the cave.
Anyway, I thought I’ll post another snippet of the city, because I quite like how the little ferris wheel turned out. Also, there’s little lamps and wiring and a wastewater piping system. And I lost count after 80 or 90 hours, so I have no idea how long it actually took …
The very beginning …
I accidentally started to paint a city in photoshop.
The file was created on monday afternoon and have been playing with
it pretty much nonstop since then. My eyes are starting to pixelate everything I see ;)
… and a section of the canvas after about 35 hours of work.
