When I win I bring we with me
I have a bunch of indoor and outdoor plants. Indoor are African plants. Outdoor plants are herbs.

I've been wanting to grow some food like beans and potatos on the front porch for awhile.

I have an idea for a slanted(not quite vertical) farm layout to save space.

So instead of laying flat(taking up space) or completely vertical(hogging rain & sun) I want to set up the plants on vertical slants so that even bottom row artifacts can catch water and sun.
(the top soil would reside just underneath the "slant surface")


It's based on reading about igbo yam storage houses, which I believe was in the book....

Among the Ibos of Nigeria, an account of the curious & interesting habits, customs, & beliefs of a little known African people by one who has for many years lived amongst them on close & intimate terms

I figured if you can store the food in such a confined manor.....​

Then you can probably grow the food in such a confined manor also.
(Though I figure you may need to adjust the geometry of the setup to better capture rain and sun. Hence the slanted surface)

Digital photography has definitely come a long way.:ehh: Have you ever shot on film?:jbhmm:






While I've never gotten an urge to do photography proper I have gotten into digital editing & art.
Because I'm such a shytty artist I got the idea of taking digital pictures then using them as a backgrop to draw over using a second layer/frame.

:yeshrug:
Think of it as digital tracing. As a result I can create multiple eyes, mouths, noses, face shapes, etc from reference shots and just piece the layers together to make a face, body, etc since I'm bad at actually drawing.

I want to start an art collective, make some apps and do stuff with tech. I also really want to get back into dance and do something with the youth. I’ll drop a musical project within a year’s time too

Can you explain this a lil deeper/ more explicitly? I think I get it but I'm not certain
