Pica also hates ads.

She likes fixed camera footage of a landscape with suspicious rustling leaves. Or just looking at herself in old videos.

It’s good to not be alone.

Every time I write a poll on here I do my best to make options comprehensive and considerate enough that no one will complain that I didn’t make an option for them. Since we have only four options allowed and since I’m not perfect I always fail.

Since many people seem curious about this distinct question:

If you have a TV is it set up to watch broadcast media?

That is, can you watch cable TV or local channels?

Do you have a TV in your home?

That is a large screen on a shelf, table or wall for watching videos and movies not a computer monitor.

(A screen with a keyboard in front of it that you sit at is not a "TV")

The Seraphim have six wings and many eyes. But perhaps that is just a typo. It must be six legs, four wings, and many eyes I think.

@seawall

Whatever you say babayaga

@tankgrrl

we don't talk about that movie around here ok

@tantramar

He looks: sad, skeptical, hopeful but just a little disappointed.

Cats have such expressive faces. I don't know if they are aware of this totally.

Please give him whatever he wants.

@fraggle

These ants are hilarious. They are so stubby I love it.

@glitzersachen

I just think that like his fish in "depth" they are stylized to look more like a machine.

Depth

Last week I wrote that Escher hasn't been positively regarded by art critics for years. But in the end he himself was his greatest critic. There are certainly e

Museum Escher in The Palace (escherinhetpaleis.nl)

The most famous ants of M. C. Escher, the ones on the Möbius strip, are in my opinion *not* living ants of any species but cute ant robots.

They are highly stylized wile retaining some essential "essence of ant"

(I would also like to point out that NO ONE has made a robot as good as these robot ants in real life. Show me that and I will be impressed forever.)

There is so much geometry in the exoskeleton of an ant. You could look at it forever and still not fully understand all of the ways it has been shaped by her purpose.

I've found the studies for the final drawing:

In the second one you can see that the gaster is shaded as if it's a darker color than the body, which makes the "red wood ant" theory more likely IMO.

The head is less stylized on the second drawing. I think he just got excited by the geometry of the ant's head and made it strange in a way that made it harder to pinpoint the species in the final drawing.

@bryan

But now she has four legs and a nose too... but then... what did I expect?

@senanthic

This is the essence of "scrungly"

Great. Now I'm thinking about ants with teeth.

@thefyuuri

Looks like you are petting a cat for the next few hours and not moving.

@apLundell

And before you try to say "mandibles are creepy" consider that almost everyone has mandibles and teeth are not very popular by comparison.

@jf_718

Pica's head is like a hamburger and opens up just like one... then it's full of teeth. Horrible.
