La ameba Nebela se ha echado a dormir, se ha enquistado dentro de su cascarón de pepitas de cuarzo formando una esfera como el mundo; así estará bien arropada y protegida, y quizá de esa forma pueda pasar mejor el invierno de hielo, en la Sierra de la Culebra le espera bajo los aullidos sobrecogedores de los lobos que a veces visitan la charca en la que vive.
Hoy la Naturaleza ha gastado una broma a esta ameba discreta, colocando sobre la cúpula de su casa un tirabuzón. Molinete verde que adorna su cabeza haciéndola presumida en este tiempo de sueño invernal. La espiral de la vida seguirá su ciclo y este filamento que adorna como una joya minúscula, la minúscula casa de joya de Nebela se irá despertando al desperezarse la espiral, cuando sople el viento de primavera.
Cuando ella llegue se convertirá en hilo ondulado...hilo de vida de una cianobacteria que aunque recuerda a Lyngbia contorta probablemente sea Scitonema...y que ha hecho lo mismo que Nebela. Se ha convertido en un ovillo para pasar estos fríos de invierno junto a la compañía de esta ameba. Cuando la primavera empiece a despertar ellas lo harán también transformando su belleza estática en latido.
La ameba Nebela protege su cuerpo dentro de un cascarón fuertemente comprimido en forma de gota y ese cascarón de doble capa, se cubre hoy de pepitas de cuarzo transparentes que ella misma fabrica como gotas de cristal.
La cápsula que encierra el cuerpo de Nebela suele ser ligeramente ocre o amarillenta, comprimida lateralmente y presenta pequeños poros laterales difíciles de observar. El cuello tras el que se encuentra la apertura de su casa - que puede ser lineal, ligeramente o fuertemente curvada - es muy corto, apenas está marcado y su borde está rodeado por un collar de materia orgánica.
El caparazón y casa de esta ameba puede estar compuesto de dos capas una interna constituida por un cemento orgánico y la más externa donde se adhieren partículas minerales, restos de diatomeas o placas de sílice fabricadas por ella misma, como ocurre en la Nebela de hoy. El caso es que para que pueda tener esta capa exterior fabricada con placas, necesita alimentarse de otras amebas que también tengan caparazón. Si no lo tienen y se alimenta solo de amebas desnudas, su cuerpo estará también semidesnudo y únicamente protegido por la capa más interna de cemento traslúcido.
Cuando camina por los fondos Nebela desparrama sus brazos en el agua abriéndose en ella y abrazándola como gruesas raíces móviles que se funden y desaparecen para volver a surgir en mil formas diferentes.
Nebella tubulosa , no es una ameba común, la de hoy vive entre los esfagnos de una turbera situada en las inmediaciones de la pequeña localidad de Boya, situado en pleno corazón de la Sierra de la culebra de Zamora y ha sido fotografiada a 400 aumentos con la técnica de contraste de interferencia.
Excerpt from irisvanherpen.com:
BIOPIRACY - In the recent past, patents on our genes have been purchased. Are we still the sole proprietor of our bodies? From this question arises a sense of arrested freedom in one's most intimate, solitary state. A mix of ready-to-wear and couture pieces is presented with artist Lawrence Malstaf -who specializes in the interaction between biology and physicality.
Models float in the air, embryonic, seemingly weightless and in a meditative suspended animation.
Metamorphosis is suggested through intricate enmeshing of materials. Imprisoned fire opal beads gleam through lacerated weaves, artificial fibers compose voluminous, architectural structures, the organic ripple of light on water.
A 3D printing collaboration with Julia Koerner fuses the artisanal with the technical to create a kinetic dress which dances as it amplifies bodily movement. Molded boots in collaboration with United Nude accelerate and reconfigure the silhouette.
Through one of the alternate plain glass windows in the Round Church (1185) - Temple Church, London. Built by the Knights Templar, the soldier monks who protected pilgrims to the Holy Land during the crusades.
The cold, grey and windy day outside was transformed by the random ripples in the old glass.
One shall stand, the shall fall...

The nymph twirled, a living embodiment of change. Her graceful movements transformed the gentle hues of Spring into the fiery embrace of Autumn. Like the seasons, our lives transition, each phase a unique dance. As we journey through time, we shed the soft innocence of youth and embrace the rich wisdom of experience.

Pointblank from G1 Transformers cartoon series, turns into a futuristic speedster. Transformation doesn't require reassembly of parts.
I am taking inspiration from both his original toy version from the 80s and also some design cues from his cartoon/comic version.

This young Black-crowned night heron is starting to get his/her big-bird plumage. It is already sporting a nice long white feather from the back of it's head. This is most likely a second-year juvenile, based on its plumage.

Demonstration video of the SNES Transformer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=583EZB93ZRc
This a slightly retooled variation of my LEGO Super Nintendo Transformers set, which was altered to have some of its principal joints removed to make it non-transforming. This was done in September while I was editing raw footage for my demonstration video, since I did this for the sole purpose of submitting my concept to LEGO Ideas. And basically, I wanted to submit an entry of a solid, non-transforming game console much akin to the official NES set from 2020, as the transformation function would be too cumbersome for average consumers – not to mention licensing issues with Transformers, as they're property of Hasbo. Unfortunately, after making these changes to my MOCs and shooting these photos, I prepared an entry to LEGO Ideas but was instantly rejected due to licensing restrictions with Nintendo as an intellectual property.
With that said, I decided to still release these photos of the updated console/accessories, since the new aesthetic changes are more accurate to a real SNES. For example, the dummy game cartridge looks more like a real SNES cartridge than the transforming version I built, since I wasn't confined to the usage of certain joint pieces which made the creations look wonky. Another set of joints I removed was the ball and socket set on the front of the console by the controller ports, and thus I fixed the little red light on the front left.
Maybe LEGO Group will change their minds and allow me to submit this as a model; I'd love to share this as a retail set.
