Wow! So excited Stef and I were features on SYFY's page for our Magicians Cosplay from Dragon Con 2018. The characters on The Magicians are very stylish, but they also have, well, magic at their disposal. If they want to glamour-up, they can do that.

Got a nice little email from Tech.io about sharing my code. These thoughts and opinions are my own. I was trying to find a platform that I could use for in-browser c# tutorials to embedded in my blog and tutorials, without the need of the user having to download software.

C# Square brackets ([]) are used for arrays, indexers, and attributes. They can also be used with pointers. Example code for potion strength.
Just using the transponder to travel to my dads for Christmas. Totally normal for my family hahaha!

Less than 48 hours until I leave for my favorite cosplay/fan/nerd convention of the year: Dragon Con!!
I normally would use a safety pin for a quick converter for the back of my bra with my cosplay costumes....until the day my safety pin came undone and stabbed me in the back(literally). So time for a new solution.
I get a lot of questions about how I add simple LEDs into my props and gadgets. Majority of people haven't used a soldering iron, and aren't sure about the investment to purchase one. No worries! You can use some copper tape and Bare Conductive's Electric Paint to light up a few 5mm LEDs, and no soldering required!
MOD. is Australia's leading future-focused museum, provoking new ideas at the intersection of science, art and innovation.

You don't need to know any programming for this project.
I used the support material from my Form2 3D Printer to make a corset!
