Noch fünf Jahre, und #neon hat die gleichen Gebühren, wie jede andere Bank. AGB-Änderung: "In der Schweiz kosten Bancomatbezüge ab dem ersten Bezug neu 2.50 CHF." Das ist mittlerweile teurer als bei den meisten traditionellen Banken. (Bisher waren die ersten zwei Bezüge kostenlos.) #banking

My oh my, The Mind Benders class I taught at FOCI wrapped up last night and what a wonderful whirlwind! I had the most amazing students who time and time again, were so hungry for knowledge, and wanted to learn more and more.
We learned to bend neon, make digital vector patterns, blink the neon with programmable microcontrollers and I even showed them how they could work with a glassblower to pull their own tubes.

My TA, @dinkytown was incredible- typically fulfilling the class's needs before I even asked her. I am thrilled that she learned a bunch in the class.
It was able to train two FOCI staff members to bombard (the dangerous process of purifying and putting gas in the tubes)- so now FOCI neon renters can get their tubes filled quicker.
The artist talk and demo I gave was well attended, and now FOCI has the doodle I made during the demo in their permanent collection.

A very messy table with some students in the background. Two neon color samples, transformers, digitally drawn patterns, circuit playgrounds, notebooks and beverages covering the table
Students working and bending neon around a big octagonal table at FOCI. Neon torches and fire abound, clear glass tubes scattered around the table.
A class poster to the left, and a show poster to the right. The class poster has a doodle made with colors that can only be bought in california (yellow, turquoise, purple and pink) and the show poster has my Soul Selling Timer with a neon green "DATA DRIVEN" in the forground in an acrylic box emblazoned with big tech logos carved into it and big red button on the top.

Today's exciting discovery while working on the American Sign Museum book.

The 'nightrider' was a vehicle used by workers at Stalcup Neon in Kansas City, KS, to drive around iinspecting their signs for bulbs that needed replacing. It had a generator installed in the boot to power its own neon lights, but no air conditioning.

I can't say if this photo will be in the final publication, but the book is available for pre-order here: 48055.blackbaudhosting.com/480.

Black and white photo taken at night and showing a 1950s car parked in front of a building. The building is adorned with Art Deco style neon signage advertising Stalcup Inc, Electrical Advertising. The car, belonging to the Stalcup company, is also covered in neon decorations, making for a striking visual appearance in perfect harmony with the company it advertises.
