Are Shakespeare’s tragedies all structured in the same way? Are the characters rather isolated, grouped, all connected?… If you want to know take a look to this post by Martin Grandjean:

Who has been to the moon? Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Barney the Dinosaur, Todd Ingram…
We tried to identify all the characters throughout history that have made it to the moon’s surface. Take a look, and download the printable poster here. Did we miss any?

I’m really pleased with how this turned out, I think I might focus on cell shading more often…! It’s super fun and looks dramatic~ Plus you can play around with incorporating extra things within the shading itself. Always good.
I spent some time on this while I was still excited by the first episode of The Bletchley Circle. If you didn’t watch it yesterday, I urge you to give it a go. The characters are brilliant and the story is exciting! It’s about four frustrated women in post-war Britain who used to be codebreakers at Bletchley Park*, and reunite years later to use their great intellect to find and catch a serial rapist killer. It’s equally awesome and rage inducing to see how these women battle the people around them who are sceptical (or just plain ignorant) of their mental abilities. Can’t wait for episode 2 :D
*I live round the corner from Bletchley Park, and I’m a little obsessed with the place hehe. It’s fascinating to think that its huge team of geniuses were possibly responsible for ending the war 3 years early. Shame that these people were not applauded for their efforts for something like 30 years, until the Official Secrets Act was ended. Instead we have the sad stories of people like Alan Turing and these fictional women, all not recognised for their efforts and in poor Mr. Turing’s case, horrifically punished.
Aaanyway, enough history. I hope you all like this illustration!

This is brilliant.

"Why be a mere tardigrade when you could be a TARDISGRADE?"
This doodle happened.
i just want an episode where the villain turns out to be an adorable tardigrade ok?
These are a few of my favorite things.
TARDIGRADES
TARDIGRADES EVERYWHERE
Waterbears can go without food or water for more than a decade. They can survive temperatures from zero to above the boiling point of water, pressure six times stronger than the deepest ocean trench, radiation hundreds of times higher than the fatal dose for a human, and the vacuum of space.
TARDIGRADES - pinnacles of evolution. Among the very best of creatures. Yes tardigrades yes.
The Common Room was a space founded by Stefan & Franciszka Themerson, which they hoped would serve as a mixing space artists and scientists, operating between 1957 and 1959. It facilitated weekly discussions on art, science, film, poetry, philosophy and links between art and science.

Mary Smith demands accuracy (and pure air) in this week’s Transcribe Tuesday.
Each week, on #TranscribeTuesday, we share work created by digital volunteers in the Transcription Center. That’s not a mystery, but who was Mary Smith? We’re not entirely sure! Transcribe this project, shared by smithsonianlibraries and perhaps we’ll learn more about whether she was a wealthy or well-connected British woman. Mary Smith’s Commonplace Book Concerning Science and Mathematics is a two volume hand-written manuscript, which dates from around 1769-1780, and summarizes science, math, medicine, religion and more.
New hero: the mysterious Mary Smith. (She's rightly compared to Thomasina Coverly in this blog post.)
