Abnormality's 3rd year anniversary round: Mythos is open for applications until March 14th!

We visited the Oysterville Cemetery yesterday for the first time in years. I had forgotten how spacious and lovely it is. It's a Who's Who of notables from the hamlet's early days. For example, this the grave marker of Oysterville's co-founder Robert H. Espy.
Here's the section of Oysterville's application for entry into the National Register of Historic Places that provides biographical information about Espy:
Espy was born February 10, 1826 in Allegheny, Pennsylvania. At the age of 15 he was apprenticed to a tailor but worked at that trade only four years.
In 1845 he left for Wisconsin, and in 1852, travelled overland to the Pacific coast arriving at The Dalles, Oregon on August 27th.
He worked driving an ox-team hauling freight between the Upper and Lower Cascades, wintered in a logging camp, and the following spring, continued on to Astoria where he was employed in a sawmill.
That summer Espy met Nahcotte while cutting piling in Pacific county, but returned to Astoria for the winter where he built a cabin and supported himself beachcombing.
That winter he apparently met Isaac A. Clark, a young man recently arrived from California where he had some limited success working the gold fields.
Originally from New York, Clark was also a tailor who lived for a time in Wisconsin and both men had strong religious convictions.
Together with I. A. Clark, Espy set out to keep his appointment with Nahcotte.
They traveled on foot and by canoe but some distance from their destination they were engulfed in dense fog that would have prevented further progress had Nahcotte not heard them splashing along in the stillness and signalled by thumping repeatedly on a hollow stump with a spruce knot.
They followed the sound as there were no visible reference points to navigate by and eventually they arrived at Nahcotte's camp.
The oyster beds proved to be exceptional. Clark and Espy both filed donation land claims Clark and Espy both filed donation land claims and Clark promptly platted a townsite. They built themselves a log cabin with the assistance of the Indian population already living there.
Oysters were loaded in a canoe and shuttled across the bay to Bruceport where there was an existing oyster exporting operation (founded in 1851 when a schooner loading a cargo of oysters there was burned to the waterline and sunk by the disgruntled ship's cook who escaped in a rowboat leaving the captain and crew marooned).
Soon ships came directly to Oysterville from San Francisco. The price was one dollar in gold for a bushel basket paid on delivery to the schooner which had an average capacity of between 1,200 to 2,000 baskets.
Oystermen would frequently trade their payment for supplies arriving on the same ship.
Chinook Indians were employed to gather, cull and pack the harvest which amounted to 50,000 baskets a year taken from Shoalwater Bay, most of which came from Oysterville.
For the first few years, the beach was open territory for oyster pickers, but soon it became necessary to divide the tidelands into restricted tracts called "whacks" with eight acres set aside for ships at anchor while loading.
Eventually, the cash price rose to a dollar and a half a basket.
Clark operated a store, and in 1858 was appointed postmaster. Espy continued in the oyster business until he was incapacitated by an illness in 1859.
After working a year as lightkeeper of the Shoalwater Bay lighthouse and then mining unsuccessfully in the Blue Mountains, Espy entered into a prosperous partnership with Warren and Company of San Francisco - later known as the Morgan Oyster Company.

The Espy Family of Oysterville
Author/historian Sydney Stevens says, “I often feel that the Espy family and Oysterville are so inter-related it is hard to know which has had the greatest influence upon the other.”
Sydney, herself, is an Espy descendent and lives in Oysterville – the village that her great-grandfather, Robert Hamilton Espy co-founded with Isaac Alonzo Clark in 1854.
Espy and Clark were guided to the area by Chinook Indian Chief Nahcati. The two young men eagerly began harvesting the native oysters of Shoalwater (now called Willapa) Bay, shipping them to California where hungry miners paid in gold for the succulent bivalves. Within weeks Oysterville became a rowdy, lusty boomtown – the busiest anchorage on the coast north of San Francisco.
When the Washington territorial government urged communities to form a militia, Espy complied and was soon elected ‘Major.’ He helped establish a Baptist congregation in Oysterville and, in 1892, donated the land and money for the church building that still serves as centerpiece to the village. When the oysters ‘failed’ in the 1880s and most of the townsfolk left, including his old friend Clark, Espy, his wife, Julia Jefferson, and their seven children stayed on.
In Major Espy’s dotage, when he needed looking after, his next-to-eldest son, Harry Albert Espy, moved back to his native Oysterville, bringing with him his own young family. Harry became a dairy farmer, and in the years that followed was elected justice of the peace, clerk of the school board, and Washington state senator representing Pacific and Wahkiakum Counties. He and his wife Helen Richardson’s seven children attended the one-room Oysterville School, went off to college and, eventually, to lives and careers far distant from the tiny hamlet. Even so, Oysterville was always considered ‘home.’
In 1971, Senator Espy’s youngest daughter, Dale, and her husband, Bill Little, retired to Oysterville and began to work on preserving the fragile remains of the once thriving boomtown. Their efforts, with the help their Oysterville friends and neighbors, resulted in the village’s designation as a National Historic District in 1976.
In 1977, Dale’s brother Willard Espy’s hugely successful book, Oysterville: Roads to Grandpa’s Village brought nation-wide attention to the remote corner of southwest Washington. And, shortly before Willard’s death in 1999, the Willard Espy Literary Foundation was formed. The foundation, headquartered in Oysterville, continues to support writers and artists by offering month-long residencies there.
Dale’s daughter, Sydney, and her husband, Nyel, now live in the Harry Espy home. Sydney’s part of the family legacy has been to ‘rescue’ the incredible collection of Espy family papers and documents, amassed over the century and a half of Oysterville’s history, and to turn the archive over to the Washington State Historical Research Center. Sydney’s book Dear Medora: Child of Oysterville’s Forgotten Years, based upon a small part of the collection, has been recently published by WSU Press.
“I have no doubt that Oysterville and the Espy family will continue to nurture one another in generations to come,” says Sydney. “It’s simply the way it is.”

Hi! In the spirit of concentrating the public's attention in our stores and keeping the fees low and affordable to everyone, Mainstore Releases is ready propose to you a brand new store-related initiave: the Mainstore Madness! As for the Annoying Hunt, this a project that I have been doing for a while now and I think could be a great project that we can all share together!
What is Mainstore Madness?
Once a month we ask you to make a new mainstore release, no dates, no deadlines, just when you feel you can do it. The new release will stay up at your store for 48 hours with a 40% discount. We encourage you to have a countdown timer in order to show customers the remaining time they have. After that you can put the full price and keep it at your store. The responsability of your product/timing/discount etc is up to you cause I don't have a team of people that can check, so please follow the rules or the customers will skip your store and it's a pity!
Why to join?
This project is made for designers that cannot afford/are not invited to events, but also for designers that join events but want to focus the attention in their mainstores too.
The initiative will start in March.
Info and rules
- You must have an inworld store.
- You must join once a month, any day it's more comfortable to you.
- The fee is 1000L per month.
- You can share your discounted new mainstore release anytime in our Discord server (in the proper channel) and, of course, in your social media in order to promote them.
- You must rez at your store the Mainstore Madness poster that will show the discounted product(s) of the day of all stores joining so we can promote each others I will personally change the image in the poster every time you will release a new product! This is the key to this project, the mainstore community promotion!
- You can choose if you want to set the product for your group, for Mainstore Releases group or for everybody.
- Vendor images must be sent 2 days before the release of the new product via a provided form, so I have the time to create the poster.
- Once accepted you will receive a designer kit with the poster, info and a Mainstore Madness logo to add to your mainstore release.
Fill the form if you are interested: forms.gle/bCSoLxau4K8t1dYw8
Love, Eva

Main corridor - view towards the main exhibition hall - Fluorescent Yellow curtain on one side - Fluorescent Passage - Brutal application of Barragan's ambient color trough colored surface reflection.
I have really busy but pretty satisfying time right now. Here a bit of documentation from my exhibition Eco Fever. Museo Experimental El Eco was created by Mathias Goeritz in 1957 and reopened exactly 50 years later under the protection of UNAM. Main objective of El Eco was to create experimental art space based on the Goeritz concept of Emotive Architecture.
As for highlights of my approach to the exhibition I can mention quickly:
1. Color Clasism - ("noble" and "vulgar" colors)
2. Transgression between high and pop culture (night club - museum)
3. Softening the severity of Goeritz (and Barragan) approach to minimalism / mysticism
4. Sacrilege - as much cultural/aesthetical as "religious" - in this case monolith becoming soft, pink - the divine in its erotic, sissy aspect)
5. Efficiency / Potential Test (related to my previous The Best of The Rest project)
Those interested in more detailed commentary can read my statement and short questionnaire I am providing at The Set Page. (At the moment unfortunately in Spanish only)

This new app is so silly I had to share!
Sandro Stefanelli is one of the guys behind it and a friend, the same crew behind Talking Carl!
Enjoy my sillyness!
Spent all day creating a physical portfolio along with a DVD (which is not yet done) for grad program application. Happy with the results!
Please don't post your photos here nor GLITTERY IMAGES. They will be removed. Don't invite me to any group. I will not accept ;-)
"It is very probable, too, that the application of our therapy to numbers will compel us to alloy the pure gold of analysis plentifully with the copper of direct [hypnotic] suggestion."
– Sigmund Freud, 1918.
"FREEMASONS, n. An order with secret rites, grotesque ceremonies and fantastic costumes, which, originating in the reign of Charles II, among working artisans of London, has been joined successively by the dead of past centuries in unbroken retrogression until now it embraces all the generations of man on the hither side of Adam and is drumming up distinguished recruits among the pre-Creational inhabitants of Chaos and Formless Void. The order was founded at different times by Charlemagne, Julius Caesar, Cyrus, Solomon, Zoroaster, Confucius, Thothmes, and Buddha. Its emblems and symbols have been found in the Catacombs of Paris and Rome, on the stones of the Parthenon and the Chinese Great Wall, among the temples of Karnak and Palmyra and in the Egyptian Pyramids — always by a Freemason."
– Ambrose Bierce, in "The Cynic's Word Book" (1906) [later retitled "The Devil's Dictionary"]
"The Bible is an indispensable part of the furniture of a Christian Lodge, only because it is the sacred book of the Christian religion. The Hebrew Pentateuch in a Hebrew Lodge, and the Koran in a Mohammedan one, belong on the Altar; and one of these, and the Square and Compass, properly understood, are the Great Lights by which a Mason must walk and work. The obligation of the candidate is always to be taken on the sacred book or books of his religion, that he may deem it more solemn and binding; and therefore it was that you were asked of what religion you were. We have no other concern with your religious creed."
– "Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry" (1871), Ch. I : 'Apprentice, The Twelve-Inch Rule and Common Gavel', p. 1.

Formerly a British colony, Somaliland briefly reached its independence in 1960. It is one of the three Territories, with Puntland and former Italian Somalia that compose the current State of Somalia.
Somaliland proclaimed its independence in 1991, adopting its own currency, a fully independent government, working institutions and police. The authorities organized a referendum in 2001, advocating once again for full independence. However, to date, it is not internationally recognized.
Ethiopian Prime minister Meles Zenawi is the only one to speak about a Somalilander president, recognizing implicitly the existence of an independent State. Indeed the economy of neighboring Ethiopia dramatically depends on Somaliland stability, since the landlocked country’s main trade route passes through the Somalilander port of Berbera… And vice-versa, the economy of Somaliland largely depends on the taxes and duties it charges Ethiopia. Besides that, the principal economic activity of Somaliland is livestock exportation to the Arabian Peninsula. Most people are Sunni Muslims and speak Arabic, as well as some Somali dialect and many of them, English.Lastely, the East African demography being based on clan alliances, it is no surprise that the frontiers drawn by the colonists don’t match the ethnic divisions of territory, leading to open clashes. More broadly, this problem is recurrent across the African continent.

Washwood Heath in Nechells on a very hot July day 2018
Late home again, I heard murmurs about me,
my parents in bed. It was not the first time,
and I didn’t know whether they ever realised
I could hear them speaking, that I also guessed
what their regular topic was. By oversight
left on the dining room table, not typed
but (“strictly required of all candidates”)
done in handwriting ‒ upright ‒ spaced
as clearly as always ‒ was my father’s
most recent letter of application.
I should not have read it. It set out his wide
experience, his talents, his eagerness
to meet new prospects with fresh ideas,
and adjust to a changing world (which went
without saying but had to be said). I saw
one detail that stopped me with its bravery:
“I am still a young man”, and the figure he added,
like this: (47). I looked at the clock
‒ as late as that? There was no more risk
of waking them now. I could go to bed.
Seventeen, on that frozen night my eyes
started something not far from the same sort of tears
that they fill with today, so I like to believe.
