Kristin (vis.social Admin)Ah! I see it's #PortfolioDay! I'm an artist working with code, data, mixed media, and ink on watercolor paper.
Much of my inspiration comes from Science, Math, and Nature.

Kristin (vis.social Admin)Who's up for getting one of my Art stickers? All I ask is that you let me know when the envelope arrives.
Together we can share a little joy, and collect data on USPS delivery times.
How it works:
1. You sign up
2. I mail a sticker to you
3. You tell me when it arrives

Kristin (vis.social Admin)Hey vis.social folks!
I've just uploaded a new 'documentation' page for vis.social.
I'm still working on it, but I think this is a fairly good start to giving folks an idea of what this community is about and a bit about how mastodon works.
If you'd like me to go into more detail, or have any questions you'd like addressed, please let me know.

Kristin (vis.social Admin)It's December, so it's time for #DecembArt!
Today, I'm sharing one of my favorite drawings from this year. It's ink on watercolor paper, and is inspired by atomic bonding angles.
If you'd like to join in for #DecembArt:
1. Only post your own work (new or old)
2. Any medium (but no AI-slop)
3. Have fun!

Kristin (vis.social Admin)Years ago, back when we were still on Twitter, a whole bunch of us shared art with the #ArtAdventCalendar hashtag. Just artists sharing beautiful works, no sales pitch.
Since then, some of us have continued on, here on Mastodon and the greater Fediverse.
Over on Bluesky, 'JayIsPainting' encourages artists to participate there.
Wherever you're active, share your own artworks, starting Dec 1st.
I'm going to use #DecembArt, to be more inclusive. You can too

Kristin (vis.social Admin)Getting ready to mail a new batch of stickers next week. Now's a great time to sign up!
Together we can share a little joy, and collect data on USPS delivery times. And it will distract me from current events, a bit, and feel like I'm doing something small and positive.
Please boost, for organic reach!

Kristin (vis.social Admin)Just curious, but how many coders, who actually know how to think through problems and write code, would it take to shut down 'big tech' if they all just walked out and said 'fine! let the ai write all of your code'.
And how long would it take for big tech to just collapse?
And how much would be collateral damage? Like hospital computer systems? Or traffic lights?
And maybe life-critical stuff shouldn't be at the whims of techbros?
Kristin (vis.social Admin)It all kinda makes me wish I had enough funding to build a kick-ass team to do something truly useful and wonderful.
Something tech-bros would never understand. Or see coming.
Wouldn't it be amazing if all of us with tech-skills decided to use our skills for good?

Kristin (vis.social Admin)Are there any fans of my art out there who are Scientists or SciComm folks? Would you like me to attempt an abstract representation of your specialty with art, in one of my daily drawings?
Why would I do this? We all need a little joy in these times, and the inspiration may help me get unstuck from my comfort patterns.
My background is mostly in Molecular Biology and Biochem, but I love learning about new fields.
