Finally.
That's awesome. Is it metal?

Yeah, I think so.

  I see that now.  I thought it was made from wooden blocks.  :dunce:

Haven't touched it? Really like public art because it can be touched. His art is very intriguing; definitely would want to touch it. Then again, he largely works in male form so the fascination level might be different. Thanks for sharing him; his work is excellent.

Took a couple of shots of what I thought were some nice large sized solid pieces of iodine.  Just snapped them because I thought such large pieces, rather than the common flake form showed off the almost metalloid to metalloid nature of elemental iodine very well. Can't hold such pieces  for  too longg as it could burn if grasped for a long time, but iodine is tame enough a halogen to sit in the hand for long enough to snap a picture and all it'll do is give you iodine stained fingers. Its volatile and a pain to store since it has a tendency to seep through container seals, and plastics. I tend to buy what I need when I need it, and surplus I'll convert into useful reagents that are not so volatile.

A rare, universal occurrence that has maybe only occurred before once in this house.



Sleeping always occurs....but NEVER like this. The only time these two are this close to each other is when one (normally the one on the left) is trying to bitch slap the other or take his food.

Don't have to touch it. :laugh: Though sure, why not? Touch it; might like it.

  So precious. :heart:  A friend of mine has two cats with a similar, squabbling relationship.  :laugh:

You know, it never occurred to me. I pass it every morning when in London, on my way to the office, but at the most I'll simply take a picture and be on my way again. :laugh:

Refreshing this to make sure it keeps staying uploaded:

My iodine monochloride synthesis. So...what you guys think of this?

(one note-meant to say the argon feed pushes the chlorine gas through, not that the medical air compressor does, the latter drives air through the condenser's cooling jacket not through the central bore.

I'm familiar with sodium chloride - used it when I worked at the mushroom farm. The rest baffle me a bit.

The camera you have isn't very good at close ups. Maybe get a distance shot of the whole thing, too, before you go close up.

You have an adorable accent.

  This is true.  "The little choonks."  I'd expected a much more aggressive sound.  :laugh:

There's that metal structure outside Liverpool Street station that gets pissed in.

I dunno why anyone would want to touch art. Sounds innocent and childlike in a way.

Though I saw slides by the southbank, I never saw those giant ones.
