More from Hundred Rabbits
Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of January. Summary Of Changes 100r.co, added a new page: tote. Added Week 8 and Week 9 of the Victoria to Sitka logbook. Tote, released the project on itch.io. Grimgrains, added a new recipe: chocolate turtles. Left, added an option to collapse the nav bar on the left. Orca, added community links. Devine spent time improving the html5 Uxn emulator, and thanks to their hard work it is now possible to play Niju, Donsol, and Oquonie directly in the browser on itch.io, the same goes for projects like Noodle and Tote. It's been a long time coming, but Oquonie is now playable on Playdate. Rek spent the last week converting the 2-bit assets for Oquonie to 1-bit, because some of the characters and tiles were too difficult to read, now all of the assets work perfectly on monochromatic screens. As an amazing plus, Devine got the music and sounds working perfectly, just like in the original iOS version. From January 19-25th, we both participated in Goblin Week, an event in which you make goblins every day for a week(whatever that means to you). See the goblin series made by Rek(viewable here in higher rez also) and the one made by Devine(Mastodon). Pino has earned two new replacement solar panels this month! We have not installed them yet, it is still too cold outside in Victoria (we are expecting snow this week). We share photos often in our monthly updates, and so Devine spent time building our very own custom photo feed named Days. It is possible to follow the feed with RSS. Book Club: This month we are reading How do You Live? by Genzaburo Yoshino and Middlemarch by George Eliot. Continue Reading
Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of November. Summary Of Changes 100r.co, added an article named A Shining Place Built Upon The Sand, and Week 6 to the Victoria to Sitka Logbook. Rabbit Waves, added a page on Morse Code and on Morse Code with flags. Left, redesigned with a bigger font, for aging eyes. Our website has a new look! The illustrated algae-eared rabbit nav helped solve the problem of navigating on mobile. We added a lot of information to this wiki over the years, creating separate portals for its evergrowing content was inevitable, we hope you like the re-design. Some of the content has shifted, and we've simplified many of the pages. A couple of folks on Merveilles got together recently and made a Diablo Tribute tape. A limited run of physical cassettes are currently in production, but in the meantime the tribute album is available to download on Bandcamp. Next month on December 6th, Devine will share the stage with Iszoloscope, Oddie(Orphx) & Creature at Foufounes Electriques in Montréal as part of AMP Industrial Events. Then on the 7th, we will both(remotely) present a summary of all the interesting analog communication schemes that inspired and found their way into Rabbit Waves and Wiktopher for Iterations 2024 organized by Creative Coding Utrecht. Devine's talk for Handmade Seattle 2024 entitled A Shining Palace Built Upon the Sand was released online(YouTube), we also released the written transcript. Due to the ongoing Canada Post strike we had to close the sale of stickers in our store, we'll let you know once we resume operations (this also applies to Patreon supporters, we'll ship perks your way as soon as we can). Book Club: This month we are still reading The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle. Continue Reading

Hey everyone! This is the list of all the changes we've done to our projects during the month of October. Summary Of Changes 100r.co, added Rabbit Waves and Logbooks. Updated woodstove installation, no windlass with 1 photo, mini dodger and Victoria to Sitka logbook with Week 3 and 4. Pino is back in Victoria. Being back in a city also means that we are shipping sticker sheets again! Devine found a spirograph set at a thrift store for 5$, we now make patterns on every letter we ship. We are happy to announce the official release of Rabbit Waves! The idea for the project came after discussing the disappearance of certain traditional seasteading skills and maritime communication knowledge that we believe are valuable when electronics misbehave, but that are also just generally fun to learn and use. The world of the micro-site will grow as we think of new ideas to expand it. Devine participated in Drawtober again this year and completed a zine that teaches the basics of multiset rewriting with examples, it also includes the source for a tiny Fractran interpreter. Since its release, many people have printed their own. Avanier went a step further and re-drew the zine on black paper! Devine also released an interactive version, and CapitalEx created with it a beautiful little world to explore! Handmade Seattle 2024 is coming up, Devine will be there to talk about weird computer stuff, and will hand out copies of the zine too. This year, we carved a Calcifer pumpkin (see our other Halloween pumpkins). Book Club: This month we read The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle. Continue Reading
More in history
Even if a bit inappropriate, given politics, here is a cool Russian pop-up book. Not really space flight oriented but still interesting. Our Defenders was a book illustrating the Russian military including battlefield rockets. The images are stereotypical of Soviet times and an interesting choice for a children's book. Mihalkov. Sergei. Illustrated by Beslik, A. НАШИ ЗАЩИТТНИКИ (Our Defenders.) Moscow: Baby Publishing (Mayysh) House. (16 p.) 1976.
