Watercolor/ink/sea salt/rosemary - Planet

Wave hits setting body in shock. Trembling, throwing alarming signals around. It is cold, it is cruel, it is lowering the body temperature. Hysterical shivering for heat generation. Silly goosebumps forming. Move away screaming across the wide open. Transmission unreceived. Deep blue is taking over. Error, error! System failure..

“Boss?”
“Yes, Marty?”
“We got another one of those frozen bots! They always manage to roam too close to the goddamn sea!” Marty passed the binoculars.
“How many we have fished out for the past month?”
“74..”


What would be your version - what is happening on this strange planet and the freezing bots?

For this piece I experimented with some sea salt for the strange canyon, crater effect. The only one I had at home has some rosemary mixed in. Lovely scent!

Song of the day: OBESØN - Long Way Down

Sort:  

Much like, wow deer, success and interesting abound for eternity and beyond.
 
 
 

It is great. Does it smell like rosemary still? I have never smelt rosemary but I assume it smells more like roses than Marys.

Much wow! xD

It does smell like rosemary still. I can't put my salt jar away now. Scent is just too lovely. ^^

Oh yeah, bots are like that. Tend to be careless, always going too close to the sea and don't notice when they are already in the sea. Then it is usually too late...

How did you use the salt?

It reminds me of a scene through a microscope with various bacteria doing their thing. I guess that is all we may be ourselves.

I just poured it all over while the paper was not completely dry.

Now that you say that, it does indeed look like the round sample glass with some bacteria. ^^

Beautiful work as usual... Love the idea of the salt and rosemary! And the little piece of story is a nice touch =) ... It reminded me of Erasmus...

Erasmus was a robot that started life as just another little techbot, part of the omnimind AI. One day, though, it fell into a crevice and eventually was abandoned by the omnimind... It was trapped there for many years and eventually started having thoughts of its own. ... The Omnimind found it later and was fascinated by it... An independent thinker... Someone to talk to! ... So it gave Erasmus privileges and he became famous as the independent Robot in the wars that raged between humans and machines... (This all happened in the prequel to Frank Herbert's "Dune", written by his son, Brian Herbert, and Kevin J. Anderson).

I promised you something a little more obscure with music... So, please go listen to the album "Time" by the Electric Light Orchestra. And you have to promise to listen only when you have time to hear the whole thing from start to finish, without skipping songs.. It tells a story... You'll see ;)

Thank you @mandelsage!

I've not read it, but sounds like pretty cool science fiction story to me. ^^

After I finished this post I thought about it a little more. Maybe that was some sort of experiment and the sea was some sort of containment for bots.

I will definitely have a listen. Thank you so much for your recommendation :)
