Hi,

I'm new on Mastodon.Art. I draw, paint and create in various styles inspired by symbols, ancient mythologies and fantasy. I use both traditional and digital instruments, all my works are hand-drawn or handmade without any AI or automation. Occasional graphic design, random tattoo design, hectic film photography will be here.

If you have a creative idea that you want to execute, give me a shout :)

Since I moved to a new instance, I should probably post a new #introduction.

I'm a sometimes #photographer. I don't shoot as much these days as I used to. Not sure why I ran out of steam. I'm hoping to restoke the fires. I'll try to post old work when I'm not shooting currently.

I will also continue to boost some of the amazing #photography that our fellow Fediversians are making.

...and RCM co-op (https://www.rcmcooperative.com/ - a co-op for research community managers, "We work with and for communities to develop and refine their capacity for equitable, resiliant and collaborative research."), and I'm interested in the place of co-ops in the research infrastructure landscape more generally!

OK, that's enough for now, HELLO! 👋 ✨

I'm the Community Manager of @digiresacademy, https://digital-research.academy/ - "...a grassroots trainer network. We offer training with the goal of improving the quality of research."), as part of which I'm helping to organise the next Open Science Retreat (#OSR26UK,
https://open.science-retreat.org/ - an unconference/hackathon/retreat for those in the open science world, next April in Wales) - we're currently looking for sponsors, get in touch if this is you or you have suggestions!

I just had to write an introduction for a thing, and since what I do with my time has changed a bit recently I figured it might be time for a new #introduction here too!

Hi folks! My name is Danny Garside and I wear too many hats - until recently I was a post-doc at Sussex University doing visual neuroscience things, now I'm transitioning more into the academic infrastructure world:...

My name’s Mohammed, I’m 22 years old, and I live in Gaza. Hello 👋🌹🤍 #introduction

It’s been nearly 2 years of no stable shelter, no income, no safety, no reliable access to food or water.

I’m trying my hardest to survive and not to give in to despair, and to keep my loved ones alive, healthy and in good spirits.

I need your help for food and shelter for my parents, my siblings, my nephew and me.

So thrilled to realize that the German Astronomical Society ✨ @GermanAstroSoc ✨ has sneaked into the Fediverse last week!

Greetings 🥳

Let's make them welcome, shall we? Go ahead and start following them if you're interested in astronomy at all, and boost their introduction post above so everyone can know about this exciting new arrival.

I personally think this is huge, so let's make this work for them 🚀

I am also sure they will in turn be able to lure even more astronomers here, and we'd all love that, wouldn't we?

Hi Mastodon, Greg here. I just joined the fediverse and I'm excited to learn how everything works.

I'm a scientist studying wildlife interactions with energy infrastructure. I run a blog highlighting current research on this topic. https://www.gregforcey.com

Looking forward to connecting with folks here.

Bonjour à toutes et tous.
Depuis janvier 2025, je suis sur Mastodon sous le nom @sallyMA . Line Marsan est le nom d'autrice que j'ai choisi. Je suis en fin de réécriture de mon premier roman. À plus de 50 ans, j'ose enfin, même si le #SyndromedelImposteur est tenace. Tourner le dos aux Gafam même si les amis ne suivent pas sur Mastodon, ou bien #oserecrire même si ce n'est pas à la hauteur de mes espérances, ce n'est pas si éloigné.
Ce compte sera dédié aux #mots , à la #litterature, à l' #ecriture . Parce que vivre cette #identite sur #mastodon ça a du sens pour moi.
