New Grammar of Ornament, Thomas Weil (2021) A beautiful book that explores the origin of ornament and 'proto-ornament' in relation to pattern. A couple of short and thoughtful essays are followed by endless pages of abstract and geometric inspiration! https://www.counter-print.co.uk/products/new-grammar-of-ornament

Thanks Tim, glad you like this one. Will let you know when the wallet is added 😅😬🕳️ (sorry again - honestly my least favourite thing about this app is the tips and continuous tip guilt! haha)

Hahaha, yeah, I got used to it and don’t want to leave the magic internet money to the others (as normally). I can’t speak for anybody else, but I never expect anything in return if I tip (I mean I just help distribute a token to the right people, that I don’t even own otherwise). And I’ve already *received* sth. In advance, like a great artwork shared or some interesting content. So the tip is already a *thank you* and does not imply any further action. Speaking for /the-library channel, I know how much work it can be to take pictures of the book, write a description and so on. So the tip is a small thank you for the effort and the help keeping the channel alive. And again it’s not my money 😅 Wish you a great day, mate 🙏

haha all great points - and please don't get me wrong - I really appreciate the gesture and also love the concept of a new type of social network that rewards rather than extracts value from users. I just find the perceived pressure to be publicly tipping when replying to people (followed by guilt when you don't have a wallet setup so can't give or receive!) a bit awkward at the moment. But agree, I should probably just set that wallet up... 😅 Have a great day too my friend.
