Gnimmel's House of Maps
Recent baby arrival means that my Tumblr artblog is not likely to be updated for some considerable time, so I thought I'd post it here to see if anything was of interest. Originally this was a project to finish 31 unfinished artworks and post them one-a day for a month; some others got tacked on at the beginning and end. Some of the more interesting contents include: a flowchart of Shakespeare's plots, a tube map of the periodic table (and vice versa), photostory The Mirror; various maps, instructions, diagrams, flowcharts etc. (some NSFW).

Demented Agitprop: the Myth and Madness of Agenda 21 Conspiracy Theories
An extended research into Agenda 21 conspiracies (UN, international socialism, bike lanes, smart growth, etc..) I was working on a few months back outgrew the home it was originally destined for, so I published it as an ebook. It's a thorough investigation into some of the groups and ideologues behind the movement, and how it all ties in to the larger property rights movement that has been railing against environmentalists and government conspiracies for over a hundred years.

Phage treatment of human infections (PDF)
Phages as bactericidal agents have been employed for 90 years as a means of treating bacterial infections in humans as well as other species, a process known as phage therapy. In this review we explore both the early historical and more modern use of phages to treat human infections. We discuss in particular the little-reviewed French early work, along with the Polish, US, Georgian and Russian historical experiences. We also cover other, more modern examples of phage therapy of humans as differentiated in terms of disease. In addition, we provide discussions of phage safety, other aspects of phage therapy pharmacology, and the idea of phage use as probiotics.

NEWTOWN
Hey! I wrote another book! My first book Why Not A Spider Monkey Jesus? was about a talking chimpanzee who becomes a televangelist. My new book NewTown is about a cybernetic man-plane battling a con artist for control of an alien spacecraft. Available as a Print Edition or ebook with cover art by Michael Kupperman!

Images which misattribute pop-culture quotes and song lyrics to famous historical figures. Because I am easily amused.

For those lovers of Lost, who are also lovers of Game of Thrones, and who by luck are also lovers of single-serving Tumblr blogs in which text is placed on top of pictures in amusing ways.

Friendship is Magic: The Gathering
A bunch of people asked me if I was serious about a single, one like joke comment I made in a MeFi thread six months ago. I decided to be serious. Shards of Equestria is a complete, 270-card custom M:TG set based on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. It uses no custom attributes or abilities making it playable as both a self-contained set or with friends in casual play alongside real cards. And at the end of this month, the set will be free for download so that it can be printed and played.
