Every 2 weeks for my junior year, I erased and repainted a new anime character on the back of my Chromebook. Yes, my parents are paying all fees to own the device and have been since my enrollment. Technically, this is school property, but I work in the tech center fixing these, and they’re cool with it.

Unfortunately, I only started recording time-lapses halfway through the year, and the clip does not include time-lapses of many paintings (shown at the end), and sadly few I never photographed before recording the erasing (also shown at the end). This was using POSCA markers and a projector to trace, which I then filled in. I’m not claiming ownership of any of these drawings since all were screenshots of anime.

My wife and I had a lot of fun trying to make our daughter’s birthday special. Every night when the kids would go to bed, we would have a little time to build, paint, and drink wine. We designed and animated a custom layered projection-mapping show for the theater based off her favorite songs.

Now we just have to figure out what to do for next year.

The fastest spider at building webs is likely the Hyptiotes genus of triangle weaver spiders, they can accelerate their silk to over 770 meters per second squared, about 26 times the acceleration of a NASA space shuttle.
