@futurebird
was lucky enough to find in the show i told you of in fist post, a small.. but wonderful, and affordable piece (sort a vase, thinner in shape, geometrical motives, a very peculiar irregular opening form) i brought back to France as marriage present to my son-in-law and his wife!@futurebird
in the 1st 100 or so images of a search, the nearest i find to the vase i bought and offered would be this one, except "mine" was without carvingin the design.
i bought for myself the nº of Artes de Mexico dedicated to Mata Ortiz. sold out but the cover and two doubles pages visible here: https://artesdemexico.com/shop/products/45-cer%C3%A1mica-de-mata-ortiz-agotado -

There are some really excellent pieces of art. Maaan if I were a rich person with a house with a place to put a $600 vase I know exactly which vase I would have. :

Is a house really a home without some ants?
@futurebird the queen on the top makes me weirdly happy

I think it's on the bottom... like a surprise. :)
But I think having her there kind of explains why they are... like that.

yes my post is ambiguous too. Mata Ortiz is 1. a city in Chihuahua State, and 2. the style of pottery they're making, reviving the ancient techniques and colors and design of the pottery of an archeological site nearby. the precursor and initiatior (40-50 years ago or so) is Juan Quezada Celado, and now with many artists it's striving again!@bituur_esztreym @futurebird spouse had a Mata Ortiz artist come into the classroom to demo for the students a couple times
incredible work

I found another remarkable ant vase. This one has a charming surprise inside.
It's a harvester ant!
Is it silly to have an ant making bread? I assure you it is not. Harvester ants crush the seeds they find and make them into a paste known as "ant bread" I suppose they don't bake it though...

@futurebird Ants would bake bread if they learned how to harness fire without cooking themselves

Ants haven't figured out pottery that we know of yet. But they do sculpt clay:
Indian Harvester ants, Pheidole sykesii create levies around their nest entrance so that when it rains the flood waters do not enter, but rather flow around it while they stay dry underground.
They build in response to the water so you can tell which direction the water comes form during the rains based on the height of the walls.

I've been in pottery classes and watched (human) people struggle to hand build a cup this nice and smooth and symmetrical. 👀
And they weren't even working on a cup the size of a small house.

I think these nests show how they are related to other wasps. We just get to see the things that winged wasps make more often.

@futurebird @goaty The internet has messed me up enough that the first thing that entered my broken brain was ‘it’s missing the ring’.

@futurebird @goaty Ants will never cease to amaze me!😲

Bla bla bla, senso e significato.
Vedo le masse perse nel rumore e nella frammentazione, eppure scelgo il mio spazio di risonanza.
Non mistico, non new age: reale, qui e ora, quando un individuo inizia a ritrovare il senso.
Il viaggio non è lineare e non è mai lo stesso per tutti.

@fucinafibonacci Il software incriminato si chiama ECM ed è un componente di MS Office. Il problema non è tanto di chi va voluto installare quella suite sui PC dei magistrati ma chi, venendo poi a conoscenza del problema, ha insistito per non trovare una soluzione e mantenere la "falla" aperta.
Ne ha parlato Mottola (giornalista di Report) ieri a 8 e Mezzo.
Puoi ascoltarlo qui sotto dal minuto 13 (e dal minuto 17 più nel dettaglio):

Ok, got to the office. I booked the appointment, but it seems there was no need for that. Nobody in queue. A nice person at the desk, all the documents have been printed in five minutes.
58 euros of "taxes" because of that.For a document that says that I can operate in my company. Even if it's mine. Even if I'm the CEO. Even if my company is composed of two persons (me and my wife).
Documents sent. I'm not going to do anything else for this. If it's not enough, I'll send them to F...ly off as I did in 2010.

@raven I think the procedure is the same, here. I'll have to get there next week - I'll check 😆

@Gina @fosstodon That's great! In that case, could IBAN transactions become a thing for donations from within Europe? To me, this is the preferred and easiest option as there is no signing up to a third party or anything.

Questa immagine l'ho incontratata qui sul fediverso alcuni mesi fa , e l'ho conservata .
Oggi ho avuto voglia di rimetterla in circolazione per farla apprezzare a qualcun altro che forse non l'aveva vista .
Non ricordo ne chi l'ha esposta , ne il titolo , ne l'autore .
