#pixelthoughts

So most of you, if you’re anything like me

I have an amazing tool that I use. It’s a website called PixelThoughts. 

PixelThoughts lets you type a worry, fear, or frustration, and puts it into a little star. Then, it plays music. gives you little messages about how the world is small, and everything will be okay, all the while the star shrinking and shrinking until it falls into the sky.

Cyber Pointillism: A Dialogue of Dots and Thought @elgnart

Cyber Pointillism feels like a dialogue between human intuition and machine logic. Each dot obeys rules, grids, and algorithms—but within this structure lies emotion, imbalance, and imperfection.

In this sense, it is a modern parallel to hieroglyphs: tiny units of meaning arranged into larger narratives, a visual language encoded in pixels rather than stone.

I often find myself musing captivated by how a single color choice can shift tension, mood, and rhythm. Limiting the palette to two colors is deceptively simple; it is enough to explore shadow and light, chaos and order, absence and presence. Minimal, yet monumental.

Even in a digital medium, the work feels handcrafted by the mind. Cyber Pointillism, therefore, is not merely a technique—it is a point of view, a pixelated contemplation of perception, pattern, and the poetry of artistic constraint.

Interesting, isn't it? Each part of an audio track is not meaningful in and of itself, but is made meaningful by being part of a cohesive whole. Each note is more comparable to a color or shape than an entire image.

But then, images also convey meaning by being a cohesive whole! They just separate the contrasts and contexts in space, rather then time.

But then images come to parallel audio in the videos we started with: many frames of an animation can be confusing or nonsensical if viewed on their own, as they are part of a cohesive moving whole.

“ink and void pixel” não é uma expressão comum em inglês, mas ela tem um ar bastante poético e evocativo. Vamos destrinchar:

• Ink = tinta → escrita, arte, expressão.

• Void = vazio → ausência, silêncio, abismo.

• Pixel = pixel → imagem digital, tecnologia, fragmento visual mínimo.

Juntas, essas palavras sugerem:

• A tentativa de expressar (ink) algo dentro do vazio existencial (void) através de fragmentos digitais (pixel).

• Uma espécie de arte digital melancólica, onde pequenas partes (pixels) tentam representar algo profundo ou perdido no vazio.

• Um contraste entre o analógico (tinta) e o digital (pixel), unidos por um sentimento de vazio, criando uma estética híbrida, talvez glitch, talvez poética.

Interpretação estética:

So I started watching the show this week (already on season 2) and I was making a super long post about all of my thoughts but I need to learn how to summarize myself better.

I feel the show didn't age as well as many procedurals but better than some of the shows of it's time

2. I was very exited about rewatching it, one of the biggest things that I remember the most was, of course, the bones and the fact that they only focus on cases of badly decomposed bodies, and the comedy

3. I didn't remember Hodgings being so crazy before, some scenes of him in the first season are worrisome

4. I know Booth is accused of toxic masculinity and I do see it, (also complains of lack of character growth) he is very much alpha male, somewhat stereotypical guy

5. I think I could make a whole post about Bones(brennan) sometimes annoying, kinda childish and ignorant despite her high IQ(that scene in the club was kinda funny tho) I was surprised to learn on this rewatch that it was based on a real anthropologist, I used to like her more before I think, in the first episodes I was all for her but now it's been toned down a bit, she has her faults

6. I think my favorite character so far is Angela (I also think it was before) and I love her loyalty to Brennan, she is so refreshing (although I saw a post complaining about her sudden understanding of technical stuff overnight and tbh, I'm very confused about her job in the institute) (also that scene of the director explaining her role and she hugging him, his discomfort and zacks commentary (although 👀) made me chuckle)

7. The change of the director was weird. I always remember Cam as the boss but I got used to Goodman quickly, I miss him being a regular in the episodes and the fact that they did it off camera(they tried to explain it in a logical sense in the show but still)

8. I actually like Cam more on this rewatch, I couldn't stand her before

9. Plenty of scenes rubbed me the wrong way, during the car bomb episode when they were looking for the terrorist... like Bones tried to excuse it because they are arabs when truly, we know terrorists are most often the ones born here, it's disrespectful

10. Bones is actually disrespectful plenty of times, it's excused as a quirk of her, she's just not a people person, but girl, you're how old? You've been doing this for a long time, enough to pick up on some cues.

Well, that's a start. A bit overboard with the motivational speech, but okay.

Is it really money, tho? Come on. I mean it's not surprising that she took her kid's money, but is that really it? That's her money?

Jacob only has my respect. He seems to be the only normal one in the family. He is right, he needs to be able to sustain himself, that is part of the criteria for existence. I'm definitely using that from now on.

Freddie, what about the ominous ending last season?!

Who is saying that? I need to know who's behind that voice. I would like to think they are not lying and really witnessed that, but it doesn't track.

Really? Barnett Academy? I mean, can't complain about those classes. To be honest, I don't know if I would've gotten A at making spaghetti at that age. But he is a genius.

Again with the pepper spray?

Omg, just imagine literally being eight years old and your "mother" hates you and singles you out and never makes you feel appreciated or even loved. Everything is intensified at that age.

And hiding her on the stroller?

Seriously Michael? You know what she means when she asks that. You're trying to play the victim still? Not him trying to cry.

Excuse me, what do you mean the Barnetts lied about the adoption? About meeting the previous adoptive family? The dude who seemed to be clearly lying about that whole story of being called by someone from the agency who told him to ckeck the bag. Why would they leave a tag with the information of Natalia's family but refuse to tell him?

Thank God for those detectives who clearly were not fooled by a child like the rest of the adults who refused to see the truth. Like they said, it was pretty obvious she was a child. My respects to those two police officers, they had good training and solid head on their shoulders.

The fucking pepper spray?! No words. Despicable behaviour and I hope someone returns the favor to Kristine.

The doctor's reaction... same.

I knew she was not an adult at the time. But being 8? Nine? Come on. Both of them, Kristine and Michael, are monsters.
