Geek, chic and lover of technology.
I've always had a fondness for being a girl (and saying screw you to people who think I couldn't do it) and my childhood love of technology and gadgets.
So it sounds about right to bring those two loves together as part of my transgender journey.

I wasn't expecting this. I really should know better by now: people love their Lego, and Lego adaptations of [insert pop culture icon here] are like geek catnip. It happened last year when I did the Mass Effect Citadel, and whenever I manage to finish the Ringworld (still in progress! not abandoned!) it's likely to happen again.
But damn.
So far GLaDOS has been picked up by Brothers Brick, Kotaku, Rock Paper Shotgun, G4TV, Joystiq, Machinima, and an absolutely astonishing number of other places. And earlier I learned that the Kotaku article had actually been syndicated on the Portal 2 news feed that displays in the Steam sidebar when you're looking at the Games Library entry for Portal 2. It's scrolled off now, but I think at this point my life may actually be complete.
I average between one to two thousand total page views on my photostream per day, about half that when I haven't posted anything in a while. Yesterday I had 71,510. As of this writing it is currently 8:53 PM by Flickr time (GMT), and there have been 122,761 total page views across my photostream today. This is a simply astonishing amount of traffic, so I feel obliged to redirect some of it to my friends.
If you are coming here from elsewhere because you love seeing Portal in Lego, you should definitely check out Legohaulic's ATLAS and P-Body and LDM's Turrets. I haven't tried building either subject matter because they've already done it perfectly.
Arkov is a huge Valve fan and has been building Lego based on Valve games for a long time, including an amazing Dog that you may have seen before.
I'm pretty sure all of those creations have been featured on The Brothers Brick at some point, which is arguably the first place you should go if you want to start your morning by looking at awesome Lego builds.
Finally, those of you who've been doing backflips over the WIP Portal Gun (excuse me, ASHPD) that I'm working on should know that it's a modification based around parts of several accessories from BrickArms, a supplier of high-quality aftermarket minifig-compatible weapon accessories designed by Will Chapman.
I will be keeping the GLaDOS model intact, and she will be on display at Brickcon 2011 in Seattle this October.
Thank you to everyone who has linked to, commented on, faved, or otherwise shown your appreciation for my work. And thank you, of course, to Valve--who created GLaDOS and these excellent games--and to their concept artist Jeremy Bennet, on whose work the Portal 2 version of her was based.
One of those shoots where everything seems perfect. Stunning model with hardly any editing or lighting adjustment :)
Reading a book. Geek girl.
An old fashioned pastime, popular in the olden days days before computers.
Amazingly books were once bought using something called money from things called shops that used to line the sides of what was known as a High Street .
Hard to believe isn't it?

Nikon SB-24 in a softbox camera left in front and slightly above.
Nikon SB-26 snooted 45° behind model camera right.

Triggered with CyberSyncs except for the SB-26 (triggered via its optical slave function).
I think it's very possible that these are the coolest shoes on the planet.

Perfect for me, non?
P.S. Someone needs to get over here STAT and clean my floor!
Picture Puzzle Piece by Shel Silverstein
One picture puzzle piece
Lyin' on the sidewalk,
One picture puzzle piece
Soakin' in the rain.
It might be a button of blue
On the coat of the woman
Who lived in a shoe.
It might be a magical bean,
Or a fold in the red
Velvet robe of a queen.
It might be the one little bite
Of the apple her stepmother
Gave to Snow White.
It might be the veil of a bride
Or a bottle with some evil genie inside.
It might be a small tuft of hair
On the big bouncy belly
Of Bobo the Bear.
It might be a bit of the cloak
Of the Witch of the West
As she melted to smoke.
It might be a shadowy trace
Of a tear that runs down an angel's face.
Nothing has more possibilities
Than one old wet picture puzzle piece.
