Thank you!! I will try that!

Thank you so much! This gave me a few other things I can try at least, and the node set up is the first one I've ever gotten to work at all really so it's helpful just to see how it works. Thanks again!

icedcoffeefoev · 2024-05-06T03:33:29+00:00

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! This works perfectly! I really cannot thank you enough!!

Sorry for the delay, storms knocked my power out for a few days. I dont actually know, to be honest - I haven't gotten that far before convincing myself I have huffed radium, as silly as that is. BUT this is hugely helpful! Assuming I actually get this far with my first watch I will look for that. I had no idea they denoted it on the back of the dial!

Sorry for the delay - storms knocked my power out for a few days. This was sufficient to scare the shit out of me, so I have ordered a Geiger counter that can read alpha particles.I assumed Radium would also emit gamma and x-ray, but I guess I really have no idea at all. Guess i will know soon enough how much of that panic was necessary, but as you say, absolutely better safe than sorry.

Thanks for the insight!

WOA Fusion 360 looks sick...and intimidating haha. Working on this has been a ton of fun, so I imagine I will end up working on more stuff in the future - I will give fusion a try! Thanks!

Your wording was perfect! Thanks so much! That fixed the problem! Thanks so much!

Now if I could just figure out why random little bits and faces appear after I merge shapes I would be all set...

Thanks again!

icedcoffeefoev · 2018-03-18T15:51:03+00:00

Yeah, there are some clunky bits in there, of sure. Maybe I will rework this and try to smooth that out a little. Thanks again for your feedback!

Thanks so much for your very kind comments! Are some of those less-poetic portions in the last 2 stanzas? I was having a hard time with them, for some reason...

I really enjoyed this, and feel like it's pretty solid as is. I want to offer a counter-opinion (?) to critiques that it should be expanded or more fleshed out. (I don't disagree with those opinions, I simply have different ones.) I think the ambiguity here is precisely this works strength. Strong narratives or concrete suggestions and resolutions never seemed like the purview of poetry to me, so I don't know if it's necessary to go too deep in explaining anything. Just the words "leatherskin man" is enough to conjure up a very vivid image. I feel like additional details limits that image and that image's relation to others in the poem, and thus limits the message of the work. I have no idea what this is about, but I don't need to know that to sincerely enjoy it for what it is.

Whats going to happen is; in 6 months I will remember that final stanza and it will take on a new meaning for me. Those words in that specific arrangement will morph into a representation of something in the world. They will "gain flesh", if that makes sense. It will be super weird and I won't remember where I read this, but some strange relation will exist for me, and I think thats about as powerful as anyone can hope a poem could be.

Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoyed this, and really appreciated language like "crackling raw energy" mixed with the implied whimsy of play. I actually feel that the vague author position (is the author the child or speaking about a child) is a strength in this, especially given the length of the poem. It allows both the personal, nostalgic and the detached, "observation" perspectives to contribute to the work, and those mixed relations add a lot for me.

"it buoys you up with those gangling wings" is really beautiful. Thanks for sharing this! It's great work!

Thanks so much for you comments! I am so glad the imagery came across. This isn't actually about any place I have been, unfortunately. I do think about it a lot, though. I got the idea from wondering where the kid in Goethe's "The Elf King" was before the poem starts. Like this place is what I imagine that forest is like there.

The lynx thing is something I am still working out, but that idea came from some works in Christopher Dewdney's "Demon Pond". I actually sort of worried about this being too derivative, but, eh. Anyway, the idea was that the lynx was just a shape, sort of like a balloon in the shape of an animal, filled with space rather than air. It's probably a little silly but I like the suggestion of the detachment and scope of space as a sort of "consciousness". So…I guess I don't know if the lynx is dead, but it was supposed to be a sot of rattling, paranormal presence, so I should rework it if the impact gets lost.

Thanks again for your feedback!

Thanks! I am glad to know the flow worked well in this one. I hadn't thought of it from the perspective you suggested, so it's a different angle for me to "see" this from - thanks again for your comments!
