Back in Brooklyn now. On my way back, I stopped at my alma mater- Alfred University in a rural one stoplight town of Alfred, NY.

Nice to see my old sculpture and art school building haunts. While I was there I saw a bunch of old and new professors, sat in on 2 student critiques, and met with a promising young neon bender, artist and glassblower,

@AbbeyfuckingDivens

and chatted a bunch with my former neon teacher, Sarah Blood.

The roll of paper next to the neon bombarder in the neon shop is the "high tech temperature guage". Long a controversial practice in neon nerddom, when the paper smokes and discolors- the glass is hot. I aim for incinerating the paper :).

Exciting things to see at the school as per usual- an its nice to be back home. About to head back in to work as I type this.

A neon wall at Alfred University, with various turquoise, pink, red, and purple squiggles, text and shapes.
A roll of paper kept next to neon processing equipment. A labelmaker label reads "HIGH TECH TEMPERATURE GUAGE" atop a wood table
Color samples, looking exactly the same as when I attended 10 years ago. My original neon and glass mentor wrote and maybe made or supervides the production of these back in 2002. Those tubes have been on, and up, since then. One rainbow of argon mercury donated tubes on the right and the same rainbow filled with just neon on the left, brick wall showing the light gradient.
An Abbey Divens piece dealing with chronic illness and medication. Her handwriting is a little sloppy with some crazy bends and blown out powders- which in this case makes the piece stronger. White neon letters reading "CHRONIC LIFE LONG ONGOING" mounted on a white rectangle with two black, visible transformers on the face.
