Laser engraving soap
I laser cut Queen Elizabeth 1st into Ivory Soap on September 20, 2026:
The wood support was unnecessary
as the soap did not melt and drip into the laser cutter
I laser cut at 100% speed, but different powers:
- 20% power -- too light
- 40% power -- perhaps Goldilocks
- 60% power -- deeper, but messier result
RESULTS
Speed 100
Power 20, 40 and 60
Speed 100
Power 40
-- the Goldilocks combination?
Speed 100
Power 60
-- too messy
PROJECTION ART WORKSHOP -- Santa Fe
I went up to a PROJECTION ART WORKSHOP in Santa Fe by MORGAN BARNARD on September 19, 2026 in the Vital Spaces Annex at MADA -- the workshop focused on MadMapper software:

Morgan Barnard used a 5200 Lumens projector:
One can also connect two or more projectors to the MadMapper software. Morgan used a second projector:
After the lecture we went outside to project the participants images on the library building:
They will be projecting on the Santa Fe Art Institute at MADA again on the last day of the COD A SUMMIT in Santa Fe, on Thursday, October 1st, 2026:
Morgan Barnard participated in the AMBIENT INTELLIGENCE in Santa Fe earlier this year:

Example of Morgan's video projection
on the outside of a building
5,200 lumens
(over $1000)
Morgan Barnard used MADMAPPER software to project on odd surfaces:
MadMapper masks out shapes on the computer
which are then masked out in the projection
3000 Lumens
