My new candle monster oc! He actually isnt made fully of wax, It is an outer coating made of hard durable wax that can withstand a lot of heat, but over the years will melt.
His name is Gallur and he is 8’9, Demisexual and is actually very sweet.
If I understand correctly, these are ceramic bowls floating in a pool of water, possibly in a cave because it’s echo-y, and the clinking sound is them bumping into one another. Like wind chimes, but … water chimes?
yo, i saw this in person over the summer! it’s an art installation!
the piece is called clinamen v.2, created by Céleste Boursier-Mougenot and included as a part of the Soundtracks exhibit in the moma – i saw it in san fran, and this photo is from a showing in new york:
the exhibit is a large shallow pool filled with white ceramic bowls in varying sizes. the bowls are pushed around the pool by a gentle current, and the sound created as they hit each other is somewhere between a wind chime and a haunted bell.
i sat there for a solid ten minutes just watching the bowls move around while listening to the sounds they made. it was absolutely hypnotic…
Soundtracks runs in the san fran moma until january 1st 2018, and i absolutely recommend going if you can. many of the exhibits play with sound in 3D spaces, and there are some truly wild contraptions on display.
what
kinds of body decoration do your rtts aliens do? like, are there alien
versions of/analogues to tattoos, hair dye, nail polish, pierced
jewelry, face paint, etc.?
OH BOY do I have a lot of stuff for this topic! For reference the main posts for centaurs, avians, and bug ferrets are here. Scud body decoration not included in this post because they are my most recent Runaway to the Stars race and I don’t have as many juicy cultural details for them.
More info under the cut.
