I make silly animations & pictures. Everything I post is made by me, unless clearly stated otherwise.

Interested in all thing visual (#Animation #Photography #sillyScribbles) and many things relating to #Politics, #HumanRights & the world around us.

Have been known to meticulously edit photos to create something fantastical, but quite often just scribble on things.

Leans to the left. Quite a lot. Full of woke nonsense, & quite happy about it. She/her.

This is my main social media account.

One day in beautiful what to do?
So far I'm planning on 2 (maybe 3) charity shops and high tea at Luckenboots and walk around the centre
Any other tips?

@priscillaharing The National Museum of Scotland is ace, if only to go to the roof terrace to admire the view around the city’s rooftops (although other bits are good too!)

@Tattie @priscillaharing It is a great place (and do frequently get myself lost - I find it a difficult building to navigate, but in a good way!)

And yeah, I'm a particular fan of the Museum of Childhood (the old dolls are a VIBE) & Camera Obscura too (I have a weakness for both novelty lighting and visual illusions in general, so it totally keys in to that)

My favourite (possibly) of the dolls ⬇️

We're going on a cygnet hunt.
We're going to snap a fluffy one.
What a beautiful day!
We're not scared.

@lappenjammer "We're going on a bear hunt" was a favourite when the Teenager was little, so it lives in my brain 😊

My ducks? Oh, they're all over the place mate. But check out my cygnets, lined up good and proper.

@lappenjammer Did you get out to North Berwick when you were in Scotland?

eclectech,
@eclectech@things.uk avatar

@lappenjammer It's a really nice seaside town, and LOTS of seabirds. It actually has a train station too, so better connected than some places up here!

  • Hey, how's your day been?

  • Not bad thanks. The local cygnets have hatched. Super cute and fluffy.

  • Nice. Have you got any photos?

  • Nah. Didn't have the camera. Went home for it, but then I couldn't find them again. Walked quite a way too.

  • Oh. You must have been disappointed. You seem to be coping well though.

  • Yes. Yes I am.

So anyhow, FRIEND exists now. Sort of. Not sure why. I was a bit tired after the long walk. Had some card and a sharpie. 🤷‍♀️

eclectech,
@eclectech@things.uk avatar

@sheepnik Yes! I feel the chicken design might have been a bit better thought out than friend though. They were a little unsteady on their feet.

eclectech,
@eclectech@things.uk avatar

@emmaaum Aww 😊

eclectech,
@eclectech@things.uk avatar

Obviously I thought this through and made sure our friend can stand up absolutely fine. They just liked to lean in for a hug now and then. I mean, you would, wouldn't you?

ahem

It's Friday! YAY!

It's getting increasingly difficult to fit all the dancers on to the screen & make loops that fit with ALL THE OTHER LOOPS (it totally stuffed the timing for this one) so next week will be the last, when I hit a year (!)

I like having a Friday Thing though, so will do any week there are volunteers, & probably just random dancers on other weeks.

As ever, have a great weekend if you possibly can 😃

Hand drawn animation loop. There are 51 simple figures each doing their own dance move. The main body of the screen is an orange starburst sky, with a rainbow framing the top. 48 dancers are on the lines of the rainbow, doing their thing. The new dancer for this week is larger, and centre stage on a cloud at the bottom, with a dancer either side for company.

@Her_Doing It’s ridiculous!

@eclectech@things.uk avatar

@NeadReport Yay! Thank you for recognising it - it all went a bit pear shaped when I had to speed it up 😄

eclectech,
@eclectech@things.uk avatar

@NeadReport I thought it was you - I was going to check back to find out who it was! To be fair that did give you a bit of a head start in recognising it 😆
