cute / / / / culture
Lizz Murphy
// kiss to kiss he struggles with the mind shares out her modest
collection grass skirts benign expressions cute culture there
will be no-one in the house of her moral code just some cliff
sheltered bay lovers of cute moving to a song of loosened hair
and now you laugh at manners and mores personality traits
plates recall conversations like white birds on foam opinions
too fragmentary to understand the physical accumulation of
minutiae the murmurings of old and wizened hear the sea-wind
call out now there is nobody here but our two selves her self says
to her self that means supporting our selves odd jobs will have
to do she would have to play a lot with words play on words pray
prey she knew she was too cute for words too cute for him //
Method: She flicked from WB Yeats to The Canberra Times WB Yeats to The Canberra Times WB Yeats Canberra Times WB Canberra Yeats Times … and fiddled a lot.
Lizz Murphy is an Irish-Australian poet who writes in whatever corners of life she can find. She has published twelve books including Portraits: 54 Poems and Six Hundred Dollars (PressPress); Two Lips Went Shopping (Spinifex Press - print and e-book). Art by owlwise12.

So here’s the inevitable Dakotaraptor steini, the newly-discribed 18-foot long Late Cretaceous “raptor” from South Dakota. Wanted to paint one before everyone got sick of it!
I figured most illustrations will show it running and killing, so I’ll draw it just sitting around and preening - this is a male in breeding colors getting ready to shake his moneymaker for the ladies.

Underwater Experiments: Astounding Photographs by Alexander Semenov
Alexander Semenov is a Russian biologist graduated in 2007 from Moscow State University’s zoology department where he studied invertebrate animals. Specifically: squid brains.
I’m marine biologist, explorer and underwater photographer, head of the divers’ team at Moscow State University’s White sea biological station. My team and I are used to diving in unfavourable and often harsh conditions where we successfully conduct complex research projects. My own goal is to study underwater life through camera lenses and to boost people’s interest in marine biology, sharing all my finding on social media and in real life through public lectures, exhibitions and media events. I have the amazing opportunity to see beauty in the darkness underwater, and this led me to multiple collaborations with the National Geographic, Discovery Channel, the BBC, Nature, Smithsonian and many more.
I’m also leading Aquatilis Expedition. It represents a new kind of research, one which perfectly blends art and science, and one which involves both regular people and the top minds in the scientific community. We’re preparing to launch in late 2016 as an international team of divers, scientists and videographers on a proposed three-year-long, 35,000-nautical-mile ocean trek to find new species and photograph sea creatures as never before.
