Rob and I ventured into Coney Island after warped tour yesterday and snuck on a few rides and shot a lot of really hilarious photos and also some nice ones. I've known Rob for almost 4 years! He's one of my best friends.

Dyers chamomile (Anthemis tinctoria)

 

Common names : Golden Marguerite, Marguerite Daisy, Dyer's Chamomile, Ox-eye Chamomile, Boston Daisies, Paris Daisies.

 

Kingdom: Plantae

 

Division: Magnoliophyta

 

Class: Magnoliopsida

 

Order: Asterales

 

Family: Asteraceae

 

Genus: Anthemis

 

Species: A. tinctoria

 

It is a short-lived biennal, occurring in the Mediterranean and western Asia. It has aromatic, bright green, feathery foliage. The serrate leaves are bi-pinnatifid (finely divided) and downy beneath. It grows to a height of 60 cm.

 

It has yellow daisy-like terminal flowers on long thin angular stems, blooming in profusion during the summer.

 

It has no culinary or commercial uses and only limited medicinal uses. However, it produces an excellent yellow, buff and golden-orange dye, used in the past for fabrics.

 

Anthemis tinctoria is grown in gardens for its bright attractive flowers and fine lacy foliage, there is a white flowering form also but the most commonly grown form is the seed raised cultivar 'Kelwayi' with 5cm wide, yellow flowers on plants that grow about 65cm inches tall. The asexually propagated cultivar 'E.C. Buxton' is a hybrid between this species and another Anthemis species.

I didn't really know what to do in processing the whole set of these, so I just processed a couple with VSCO presets and tweaked them a tad. May need to revisit them some time with a little more clarity on what I really aim to achieve in processing.

Walked into my favorite cafe on Sunday and there was a traditional dyeing workshop going on.

 

Harukisan hand dyes textiles the old fashioned way (well, except for all the plastic buckets) going as far foraging for his own roots and barks to create his dyes.

I got to try out two handmade iron tripods at the Heritage Farm's Recycled Beauty weekend in June. The iron pot held some madder roots and the brass pot held an osage orange sawdust. It was a beautiful day and a little hot to be making fires, but the tripods were a great improvement over last year and the dye pots worked well.

Sundays are becoming dyeing days around here. One must have the appropriate uniform for such a day. ;) At least the little window over the stove let me see a little of the sunshine while I worked.

I actually can't remember exactly where this is; I'll have to do some research. But the colors of India are so unmistakable, that I'd at least be able to narrow that down even if it were lost among all of my files.

1. Washed the alpaca hair in warm water for about 20 minutes

 

2. Prepared black Ashford acid dye:

I used just a knife point but quite a LOT of water

 

3. Prepared the dye bath:

Mixed Ashford acid dye, water and 1 table spoon of white vinegar and added then (!) the alpaca hair

 

4. Stirred the hair constantly for about 30 minutes while water startet to boil

 

5. The result was disappointing, the color was patchy and not grey, more some kind of purple

 

6. Next try: Rit Dye Pearl Grey

Filled the pot with fresh warm water, 1/2 cup of salt, 1 tablespoon of laundry detergent and the dye and added then (!) the washed (!) alpaca hair

 

7. Stirred the hair constantly for about 15 minutes because I liked the color

 

8. Rinsed the hair in warm water for about 10 minutes, then I washed it twice with warm water and detergent. And then I washed it with shampoo and conditioner and blow-dried it.

 

I am really happy with the result!

yesterday, i got to play with natural dyes all day. i set up 5 traditional natural dye vats: 2 black walnut, madder, tumeric and osage orange. inspired by india flint, i tore up an old linen tablecloth and used this cloth to experiment with her direct application techniques. i arranged leaves, onion skins and bloodroot pieces on the squares of wet linen, then folded and bound and into the dyepots. i am very pleased with the result. opening these little bundles was like opening cloth gifts!

Tye dye birthday cake that I made for my neice. I love the way the light reflects off the disco ball onto the top of the cake.

A few months ago I ran across a clever small nitrogen laser build.

 

www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCnXftuJ9Zo

 

Back in the early seventies I was fascinated by nitrogen lasers and tried to build one. The vacuum sealing (and excess complexity) was my downfall. Years later I built a simpler unit that worked but that was that.

 

Before that I tried to build the flash-lamp pumped dye laser from CL Strong but once again lack of machining resources stopped my project.

 

I decided to finish what I had started fifty years ago. The build was clever and straightforward. After a short while and with about 50$ I had the nitrogen laser. It worked fine (even with air) so I got started on making a nitrogen laser pumped dye laser.

 

I had some old surplus quartz quvettes that had frosted sides. I used diamond abrasives to polish the two frosted sides. My attic full of crap yielded the mirrors and (amazingly) the quartz cylindrical lens.

 

In my experience the lens was the most useful part. I could get the dyes to lase using just the lens (super-radiance) but the mirrors not, except for one dye.

 

This photo shows the lens, the dye filled cuvette and the mirrors lasing. The dye is a fountain pen ink (probably a Fluorescein dye) lazing green. The pump is the nitrogen laser which is invisible UV light.

 

Cheers.
