Not quite portable crafting but allow me to present portable lunching ie. a picnic.
Apricot and walnut bread form the Port Moody pocket farmers' market, with cream cheese and soda from the local grocery store.
All consumed in the open air and sunshine.

finally started
Since all my crafting is technically portable this month, here's a peek at a new flower intial I'm embroidering.

Work of Proto-Art in the Age of Symbiotic Reproduction contains 10 minimal shockwave engines (also refered to as "memes") that enable the user to make glorious audio/visual compositions.

a strange attracting force
so that a seduced reality will be able to spontaneously feed on it
pomo mama's work investigates the nuances of modulations through the use of slow motion and close-ups which emphasize the Symbiotic nature of digital media. mama explores abstract and domestic scenery as motifs to describe the idea of cyber-intuitive hallucination. Using non-traditional loops, lasers, and slow-motion images as patterns, mama creates meditative environments which suggest the expansion of art...
