is Instagram a big mean daddy?? @a.rural.pen & i say yes. we recently broke the 4th wall in pied midden, the WPP newsletter, issue no.43. you can now read our whole entiiiiiiire conversation (i dare you!) in the archives at the bio link. here's an excerpt. see if you [email protected] has the mic: "...I also shunned social media for a long time because it was really stupid. I was like, “Do I need to see a picture of people's lunches?” Or like, yay, there's another terrible snapshot of you in a pool and like, this is such a waste of information. I thought, this is a vast network, we can share so much. The only way I felt comfortable contributing to it was talking on a subject. It's not about my life. I mean, it is a little bit about my life in an offhanded manner every now and then. But I needed a mission, you know, I needed, like, a raison d’être for my social media presence. And I feel like this is also something that may speak to the larger pigment-making community — I feel like most of our pigment-making friends aren’t really the big social media lovers that populate the info-sphere. They’re people that like rocks and dirt and plants. And most of them have to have their hands dirty and don’t want to touch their phone. If they even have a phone.” …and we’re just getting started.:) all pics from @a.rural.pen, except the one of the moon. ( you’ll get why that one is included if you read our convo & boy will it blow yr mind) #redmoon #ink #makeink #wildpigments #naturalpigments #pigmentpeople #ochre #gunink #instagram #fourthwall #makepaint #naturaldyes #interview #pied #midden #bigmean
