I went to apache reclamation with my friend Charles from blast wave labs. It's a really fun place to go, a ton of old dusty test equipment, labware, electronic components, tubing wire, high voltage stuffs, etc! I was looking for some 10 AWG wire to build a welder out of a couple old microwave oven transformers, but all I could find was 6 and 8 gauge. I did pick up a couple quarter inch plugs and a 5 pin DIN plug just so the trip wasn't for nothing. I was planning on using those to make a cable that went from the C64 to my mixer, but the A/V port is an 8 pin DIN and the 5 pin wont even fit :(

I've also been working on more context free art:
