    I made and cut a pattern using a Silhouette Portrait, then made a simple icosahedron.

    You lie, there's no such thing as a SIMPLE icosahedron.
    So no cicadas were harmed in the creation of this art.

    Not even an option unfortunately.  Weather turned cool, and the critters hit the snooze button.  I've only seen one nymph and a couple husks.

    We have one telephone pole that's about 3 blocks away, and there must be a steam pipe or something running under it because there were scores of them on a pile of sticks in the nearby gutter, in the grass, and all over the pole.  None to be seen anywhere else.

    I can believe it, I can think of occasions where the promise and smell of sex made me forget how cold my environment was... until later.

    But tapecraft, saw a GIF of a blob of spinning pentagrams.

    Re: Tapecraft

    I got a CMYK cube; it's sort of cool.  And it inspired me to buy some color filters, and make a CMYK ball.
    (both misnomers; there's no K in either)

    Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow panels make Red, Green, and Blue when combined.
    (K in CMYK stands for "key" and means blacK, in printing terms)
