After months of planning and organising (longer than we care to admit), we're excited to announce that today is the launch of the very first Kickstarter campaign by the London Centre for Book Arts.

We've recently taken on a lease of a new studio in Britannia Works to turn into a dedicated project space and library. Along with the new studio, we have plans for much needed improvements in the existing studio to accommodate the needs of our members and the community.

Donations will go directly towards:

refurbishment of the new & existing studio space

moving, cataloguing, and expanding our reference library

building a new space dedicated to reprographics and publishing

repair or replacement of key equipment.

We've got lots of rewards, including Making Books: a guide to creating hand-crafted books by the London Centre for Book Arts to be launched in August from Pavilion Books (you'll definitely be hearing more about this soon) – with more rewards to be announced.

Please take a look, and even if you can't contribute, it would be great help if you could spread the word to your friends. Every little bit helps!

As always, thanks for your support.

Kaj loves a working man.

This is a bit of a sneak peek of the second Scalebearers book, set to come out in 2023!

Witty, handsome, roguish, a no-good rotten thief, these are just some of the colorful words that have been used to describe Kaj. A city boy through and through, Kaj is looking to get in and out of Elerrï as fast as possible so he can back to the hustle, bustle, and brothels of his beloved home city of Moreacor.

🔁 Reblogs are greatly appreciated! 🔁

I'm currently reading The Elysian Prophecy and so far it's the best self-published book I've ever read. I'm over halfway through it!

Vivien Reis even includes a free ebook you can get from her website. It shows off her writing style very well and that's why I decided to buy the full book. You have to sign up for her newsletter but I've gotten maybe 8 emails in the year and a bit I've been on it.

Also it's got a gorgeous cover!! (That also attracts dirt like children, but its pretty!)

This isn't endorsed or anything im just so at awe with the book so far and wanted to share.

Plus a free book is a free book 📖

Haven: Darkened Legacies - First Chapter.

I have decided to post the first chapter of Darkened Legacies for visibility/promotion. Darkened Legacies is the prequel to the first book in The Hampnear Legacy, Twinstone. Those of you who haven't read Twinstone can read the first chapter on my website, as well as purchase a pay-what-you-want PDF of the book via Ko-Fi. However, if you don't mind mild worldbuilding/relationship spoilers, you can read Darkened Legacies even if you haven't read Twinstone.

Darkened Legacies is being written for Kindle Novella. This is mostly for visibility and to further expand my audience outside of Tumblr (you know, real-world people). Same reason I used Kindle Self Publishing for Twinstone. Because Novella offers 10 chapters of a story for free before credits are used (because why would they not?) I have decided to post the chapters/episodes on my website, until I reach chapter 10. Afterward, I will create a ko-fi tier (in which the cost will be next to nothing) and post the chapters there. Because of the limitations of Kindle, the chapters for this will be shorter.

I think that's all the rambling I have for now. Make sure to like/reblog/support/help me get my work out there! I want to eventually be able to quit my job and write as my living (big dreams, I know).

xoxo,

Paige

"I could possibly be fading

Or have something more to gain

I could feel myself growing colder

I could feel myself under your fate."

Mazzy Star Into Dust

I am no longer certain what it is to be human.

On certain days, a subtle flicker of emotion or the distant echo of memory may stir within me, like a gentle breeze brushing against my skin. But it's only temporary, fading away as quickly as it came. It's strange to live in a state of forgetfulness, disconnected from the intense vibrancy of being alive. To pass through years, decades, or perhaps centuries without questioning the path we've chosen or perhaps one fate or circumstance that has been chosen for us.

But then, when we chance upon one person who ignites a flicker within us, we understand the emptiness that has always resided in our hearts. The gaping void that their existence can only fill. Every time they gaze into our eyes, a thousand stars have aligned and ignited a fire within us. We feel complete as if their touch has mended all the pieces of our shattered souls. And in those moments, we know this person is the missing piece we've been searching for all along.

It's a strange feeling to be brought back to life.

─┉┈◈◉◈┈┉┈◈◉◈┈┉

The ancient deities were the guardians of the forest. Their presence was felt in every rustle of leaves and whisper of wind. For centuries before modernity dawned, before humankind claimed dominion over the world and its creatures, these gods ruled with primal power. As a child, I grew up in a village near the edge of these woods, where the people revered the forest as a place of immense magic. The veil between the living and the dead was thinnest here, offering glimpses into realms beyond our own. And so we worshiped these fickle and mysterious beings, born before time itself and not bound by human rules or understanding.

Few memories are left of those early days of my life, scattered remnants of a life long gone. My first memory is of my mother, her swollen belly creating a comfortable nook for me to rest against as she rocks in a worn wooden chair. Her voice is soft and soothing as she sings an old tune, her slender fingers threading through my hair. The surrounding room is warm and cozy, the fire casting dancing shadows on the walls and the aroma of bubbling stew filling our senses. I close my eyes and try to hold on to this moment, knowing it will soon fade away like all my other memories.

They named me Leonidas. My father hoped this name would bring me fortune and glory, a gift from the wise woman of our village who had seen my fate in the stars. But the fickle ways of the old gods cannot be predicted. On the day of my christening, rain fell from the sky and did so for a week straight. A bad omen, or so my father was warned.

It was a bad omen, but not for the reasons he believed.

─┉┈◈◉◈┈┉┈◈◉◈┈┉

At the tender age of eighteen, I married a healer woman. It was not a love match but an arrangement made by our parents and the gods before we could comprehend it. Our village was nestled in the heart of the ancient forests, surrounded by towering trees whose thick canopy blocked out most of the sunlight. We lived following the rules set forth by the old gods, and we worshiped devoutly. As a man in our society, my role was to produce offspring - sons to carry on my name and continue our legacy. And so it happened, in due time. Our first son came into this world with a fierce cry, and I couldn't help but feel a swell of pride in my chest. A few years later, we were blessed with another child, solidifying our family and bringing us more joy.

Our lives, though simple, were filled with laughter and camaraderie. We led a simple existence dictated by the change of seasons and the gifts the earth bestowed upon us. The women tended to the children, prepared meals, and sewed clothes while men like me toiled under the sun or ventured into the deep woods, hunting for game or collecting wood for fire. Our evenings were spent feasting on whatever bounty we had that day; our bodies huddled around the fire for warmth as we shared stories about our ancestors and their exploits.

And all these years later, I see the cruel irony life has dealt me. In my naivety, I had once believed the gods were smiling down on me, and that my predetermined path would lead to a future filled with wonder and beauty. But now, as memories flood, I realize how wrong I was.

With her sharp tongue and cold heart, my wife was a wicked mother in every sense of the word. I can still feel the sting of her scolding for being too soft with our sons. She constantly reminded me they were not delicate girls but strong, capable men who needed to be molded into warriors. "You are too soft with them, Leonidas."

Yet, despite her harsh teachings, they were still just boys to me—full of innocence and vulnerability.

We instilled in them a deep reverence for the wild, the earth, and the ever-changing skies. Above all, we taught them to value one another, work together, share, and set aside their differences. But I also granted them moments of freedom - allowing them to run off and go fishing while I picked up their slack for the afternoon. As their leader, it was my duty to prepare them for what lay ahead in life, but I also wanted them to experience the carefree joys of childhood.

What exactly that sense of freedom meant, at that moment, I couldn't say. Perhaps it was the exhilaration of exploring the woods without a care. Or maybe it was simply the feeling of being alive in nature's embrace.

As I ventured into the woods alone that day, just before sunset, on a mission to gather herbs and appease the nagging woman who always demanded more from me, little did I know I would never return home. She had asked my son to accompany me, but he had refused. He would come to regret his decision for the rest of his life, though he could not have known it then, and neither did I.

─┉┈◈◉◈┈┉┈◈◉◈┈┉

How mortals get themselves into trouble is still something beyond me now that I have all the understanding I do. But maybe I can see the forest and the trees better now.

But I couldn't back then.

The memory of the day I met him is etched into my mind forever, every detail as vivid as the first moment I saw him. It was a balmy summer night, the air thick with the scent of earth and herbs. My arms were burdened with various plants for potions that the witch-woman had requested. I trudged through the dense forest, feeling annoyed and resentful that I had been tasked with this errand while there were countless other things I would rather have been doing. The sun sank below the horizon, its golden rays fading into a deep, inky purple.

And in that expanding darkness, I tripped along the river bank somewhere beneath the mountain. My foot snagged on a hidden root, and before I knew it, I was tumbling headfirst into the indigo abyss. I tried to reach out, grasp anything firm, but the world spun and twisted in dizzying circles. The last thing I felt was the sharp bite of a jagged rock against my temple as I plunged into the icy depths of the river. My lungs filled with icy liquid. Panic set in. Struggling against the weight of my heavy clothes and numb limbs, I fought to reach the surface for air. But as I swallowed more water and my body grew weak, a sense of resignation washed over me. Maybe this was meant to be my end. Death didn't scare me, not really. Perhaps this was the will of the old gods, for I had been raised on stories of their wisdom and mercy, taught to trust in the natural order of things. They were the protectors of our land, the arbiters of life and death, and I trusted in their divine will to guide me through the darkness.

But just as I was about to give up and let the water claim me, strong arms grabbed hold of me and pulled me upwards. Gasping for air and coughing up water, I was aware of every ache and pain coursing through my body. My eyes flew open to meet the piercing silver orbs staring back at me.

The man who had saved me spoke urgently, his voice laced with concern. "I need to save your life," he said. "Will you let me?" At that moment, it didn't matter who he was or how he had found me floating in the river. All that mattered was survival, and I nodded weakly in agreement before everything faded into darkness again.

Next Steps - Publishing quandries.

Next Steps – Publishing quandries.

Well, I’m finally ready to publish Choose Yr Future. It’s taken about six years but I’m happy with it – with the storyline, the characters, the style. I don’t think there is anything else I can do with it. I have sent things off to publishers when the writing is still in too raw a state before and it didn’t get me anywhere but I’m fairly certain that this is a lot more polished. In fact, I had…

GOLD FILLED SCARS

As part of my personal project, I publsihed my very own guided creative writing journal which helped me to explore the question if creativity and human emotions have a connection.

“Your secret journal, your open letter to emotions or your end-of-the-day resort; gold-filled scars is a flexible journal for all your hidden emotions and your blooming creativity. Creative writing is a tool that doesn't only help us find our own solutions to our problems but allows us to learn from self-reflection. This guided-creative-writing-journal is an attempt of creating an open platform that can allow creativity to enhance and emotions to develop”

Lupine Publishers | A Data Collection and Visualization System for Smart Buildings

Lupine Publsihers | Computer Science Research Journals

Abstract

As a very import part of the Internet of Things (IoT), smart buildings usually consist of wireless sensor network (WSN) and many radio-frequency identification devices for data collection instantly. This paper presents a real time data collection and visualization scheme for smart buildings. We propose a framework that uses both open source hardware and software to collect the event driven data from a WSN and subsequently convert them to the query-based data which is needed by cloud server. Experiment results demonstrated that the proposed framework is feasible for efficiently visualizing data locally and preparing query-based data for cloud storage server.

Keywords: Wireless Sensor Network; Iot; Data Visualization; Smart Building

Introduction

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a very important part of the Internet of Things (IoT) [1]. It is composed of several thousands of sensor nodes which are capable of sensing, actuating and relaying the collected information [2-4]. The primary function of WSN is to obtain information from sensors and monitor environments. In recent years, many WSN applications have been developed. Particularly, in smart home or smart building applications [5], all sensors connected to WSN will collect data and subsequently forward them to a central device referred as WSN hub or gateway. These data could be saved locally and finally uploaded on cloud storage server like Blink or Arlo home security system. In general, the cloud storage server is the center of smart home or smart building. As a result, users need access these data anytime or anywhere from their smart phone or other mobile devices. Hence, all the smart building related management applications could be considered as cloud based IoT systems [6-7].

With the data collected on a WSN in real time, users can employ a smart building management application to visualizing these data in a local machine or upload these data on the cloud for a broad management purpose. Because there are many different protocols exist on IoT, one of the biggest challenges for general management applications is the interoperability. That is, the devices on IoT working on different protocols cannot communicate and exchange data compatibly. Most importantly, the products with the same protocols are not even always interoperable across different profiles [7]. Moreover, the data collected from WSN sensors are the event-based raw data. Those data must be subsequently converted to a query-based format for an efficient usage by different protocols with difference devices. Meanwhile, all those data should be stored persistently in the cloud server at multiple levels. Later, they could be easily combined and processed with previously stored data, as well as with other non-IoT data [8]. Thus, in this paper, we propose a cross-platform system to visualize WSN data and convert the event-based data to a query-based format for the cloud storage server. This paper is organized as follows: section 2 described the proposed structure of WSN. Experiment results are shown in section 3. Section 4 draws the conclusion and future work.

Structure of WSN

One of the most popular WSN protocols is ZigBee [9]. A typical ZigBee based wireless sensor network is shown in Figure 1. The XBee module is an implementation of ZigBee standard from Digi International Inc. [www.digi.com]. There are three parts in XBee/ ZigBee mesh network: coordinator (red dot), router (blue dot) and end node (green dot) [10]. All the data collected by end nodes will be forwarded to coordinator via routers in the WSN and processed by a local computer directly connected with that coordinator. In our work, we adopted XBee/ZigBee based WSN for the data collection. In XBee/ZigBee based WSN, one XBee module is configured as coordinator and there are many other XBee modules are configured as routers that could be connected to sensors [11]. A temperature sensor is attached on end node (green dot) in our system as demonstrated in Figure 1. An XBee wireless node is actually a microcontroller with a wireless radio transceiver. XBee provides both analog port and digital port based on its configuration. The detailed XBee configuration could be found in Faludi’s work [10]. Figure 2 shows the circuits on a breadboard, prototype board, and print circuit board of a wireless sensor node in our experiment.

Figure 1: A typical ZigBee based wireless sensor network.

Figure 2: Circuit boards of a wireless sensor node.

Experiment Results

Figure 3: XBee based WSN real-time data visualization in a smart building.

In a smart building scenario, we mount the wireless sensors in different locations in a building. The sensors will collect temperature, transmit these data in real time, and forward those data to an XBee coordinator which is connected with a computer. In Figure 3, we demonstrated our experiment result created by an open source programming language named “processing” [12]. The temperature data are displayed based on their locations in the building with red dots representing the XBee wireless sensor nodes. We also can animate the temperature data and blink the dots in order when our system receive the data nodes. The original data were recorded in Fahrenheit. Then, we converted the temperature unit to Celsius in visualization tool as shown in Figure 3. The “processing” is a Java based language so the results could be exported to a Java applet and used in a web browser-based management application. To convert the event-driven based data in query-based format, we applied the SQLite in our system with Python. SQLite is a self-contained, serverless database engine which is very fast and light weighted. Because it requires no configuration and stores information in ordinary disk files, SQLite is a popular choice as a database to backup data in cloud storage server. Based on the corresponding MAC address of the XBee node, SQLite database system record the temperature value and add timestamp simultaneously for that node. Figure 4 demonstrates a sample of our experimental data after the conversion (Figure 4).

Figure 4: Query based data converted from real-time WSN.

Conclusion

In this paper, we presented an XBee/ZigBee based WSN to collect and visualize the data in real time for smart buildings. We described the structure to build this IoT application. The framework combines both processing and python-based data visualization tool through a local computer and could be exported as a Java applet to integrate in a web page. Our work on this project can be further extended by uploading data on cloud server and using web crawling technique to extract data for third-parties who are interested in other IoT applications.
