Thanks Xen. That looks more or less identical to what I remember 10(?) years ago, except the keyboard is smaller and potentially looks less full of ash? But surely not!

If anyone just happens to have that stuff lying around it'd be Xen.

I don't have daguerrotype materials, but I have recently started playing with cyanotype.

It's not terribly exciting...

Did you use a potato to take that?

Here is mine. Ikea desk and chair. Tidy, because I'm a clean freak and can't be dealing with messy desks.

I'm jealous of how tidy you are.

That's uncanny, like a Magritte painting.

There are a few things hidden behind the Macbook, but not much and there are pictures hung up around the room, just not behind my monitors

Don't be silly.

It was clearly a lemon.

I'm transitioning to pipe-smoking and a side effect is less ash. Which is great. Keyboards last me more than 2 weeks.

It's a really nice keyboard though. With Alps switches. Which are fucking lovely.

Shitty quality image buddies (hug)

I'm liking your wall art there. :)

Why the fire extinguisher though?

I didn't know that was a thing, so just been reading up on it.

How've you found it, and have you got any finished pictures?

I imagine, and this might be completely wrong, that it's used for extinguishing fires.

(I also imagine it's entirely possible that he nicked it from a pub, and it expired in 2003.)

But there's not a fire there, so completely surplus to requirements.

Here's mine. Helps that I already have my own office/man-cave and have been working from home for several years already.

That makes me feel ashamed.  :-@

That just shows it's working.

According to the cinema, that's a myth, the real purpose is that it is a handy weapon for clubbing people over the head.
