ADEPTAPRIL/SEPT18

 

Mistigram: every day is a good day to read a book, but today is a special subset of that general goal: AdeptApril has illustrated an #ANSIart celebration of "International Read An #eBook Day" today. Relish in that gloriously chunky e-ink screen in dark mode!

His partner gave him an ultimatum: to focus on one of his creative gifts rather than splitting focus between them. So Ozero (aka Onyx, aka NinjaDude of (CORRECTION: fellow TPOE traveller to) HFR, aka Joseph Picard, onetime SysOp of The Crimson Helm) set aside his visual art (see Mist-released examples attached; apparently he also kept on keeping on for some time) and the tracks which filled Sonic Equinox music disks, and focused on his current creative mainstay as a purveyor of ebooks.

Then he suffered a long hospital stay, and in the tedium of medicalized confinement, looking for some small way for the spark of human whimsy to express itself in a wholy institutionalized environment, the drawings (well, doodles) crept back in.

Because nothing is wasted, after being released from the hospital these doodles were compiled into an ebook, and as periodically happens – this weekend it is being given away for free. Avail yourself! It is almost certainly the best collection of work ever produced on its subject: linguistical curiosities found on hospital meal menus.
