Last night saw the launch event for a 'zine that #OutputArts have been working on for the last year, alongside a researcher from UCL and a group with lived experience of domestic abuse. The 'zine contains practical advice on what you can do to support someone in need. You can download it for free on our website:

https://outputarts.com/projects/time-for-tea

The support numbers in the booklet are UK-specific, but the advice works anywhere. I'm so proud of this project and the work that our group did.

In between our other projects, we continue working on Rowboat, our tool for instantly making sense of very large datasets.

Lots of this work has been led by @kayserifserif who just wrote up several of the new features: https://fathom.info/notebook/250618/

Stacked bars & histograms, charts for ranges (especially time), text & set analysis! Tiny, adorable, chart exports!

Try all the features now at https://rowboat.xyz before those VC-backed competitors have a chance to copy them into their own product.

Friends, I am job hunting!

I'm a super skilled front-of-the-front-end developer who positively thrives on HTML, CSS, and accessibility. I primarily work in WordPress and 11ty, and live for intrinsic design. Give me some good design and I'll deliver you a great pattern library. I've got some kick-ass leadership skills too!

If you're willing to take a chance on someone whose skills in front-end dev span 25+ years but who's still kicking about in React, I'm your kid.

#GetFediHired

While I'm making AmperSands or skimming stones, the kidbots normally pursue rockpool-based wildlife and wifebot assembles rainbows from whatever stones / shells / sea glass she can find. And, well, it's June, so she made this on Sunday.

All from pebbles found on an otherwise fairly unexciting bit of shore!

I am looking for some suggestions of ideas for automated weaving on a very tiny loom. It could be through something like Arduino, or some manual crank system, etc.

I'm looking for minimal and simple (imagine 5 strands like the 5x5 grid in a Puzzlescript sprite).

Even something like pattern cards with a crank would be cool. Just brainstorming right now but i haven't yet hit on an idea of how to do what i want to do.

Things I've looked at a bit:
- expensive production machines
- pattern card weaving
- some very complicated lego mindstorms automated looms
- extremely complicated arduino looms
