Deep in vacation mode. Bought myself a used acoustic with a pickup, so had to get an amp and a microphone. The salesman talked me into a Fishman Loudbox Mini. I should buy that guy a beer. This amp sounds great, looks great and is a lot of fun.

Started a new art project - haven't done art in about a year and it feels great. Goal is to make 20-25 cm models of the 5 Platonic solids, each made from 6 human figure shapes. They'll be 3d printed in metal. Making 3d art is 10x harder than 2d, my 2d pictures I can cheat and hide things, but a 3d model that people can handle has to be perfect from every angle. This will take me all summer and maybe beyond.

Going to Greece on Sunday to sit on an island and do nothing for a week except eat well and drink adequately.
