The New Dye group, as it changed names with almost every meeting of a growing group, they gathered impressions of their growing community. What, if anything, do we call this thing?

… because, for a while one of the printing tests was to turn a pizza blue ..

–here’s an Ektachrome transparency of a pizza. Standard Manhattan pie. Print it so that it’s blue.

My, (we), asking that inner self about your result: do you find an interesting way to do it, or do you print it blue, like a good student would do.

Do you make an ashtray — piece of clay, shaped roundish, with dimples for the cigarettes.

This answered the question that wasn’t asked directly: are you a printer or a printmaker. Is there a question you can answer we haven’t asked. A question interesting to the group. This was always the second round of matriculation interview..

DYE TRANSFER: learn to tell time before taking the watch apart.

TODAY, soup is getting cold, salad getting warm. It is a film day. Stay away from the endless thread pullings.

How about a strange brew of two songs:

— success with few bars, fewer words George Strait https://youtu.be/x_JL_hMBakk?si=WjxBAt5iTWS6JQHn

and only because it seems a counter fact: Dire Straits https://youtu.be/jhdFe3evXpk?si=xsBHpViV4c3VMACc

Both would be/were played at Blue Pizza tables. With dance, discussion, delight.
