Chad Knight makes digital art.. you can’t order digital art in different sizes.
It wouldn’t be shipped anywhere, either, and probably not sold through a company like this, but digitally, from the artist, or possibly his agent.
…
I think he sells it as NFTs….. something I only kind of halfway almost understand.
That stands for Non Fungible Tokens, and means it’s the original digital art, not a reproduction or a copy.
And the piece being famous would surely be worth far more than that…. maybe even millions. If you believe in the worth of NFTs and probably cryptocurrency.
….
But in trying to understand this virtual work, I did find a company that supposedly makes real life stainless steel copies of Knight’s sculptures, though nowhere near the size shown in the digital pieces.
I have no idea whether they have the artist’s permission, but they do sell for around that price if not too big.
What you’ve posted is an image, so the links don’t work, and the site URL is not given… but I believe that’s what you’ve found.
A video about this photograph.
I find it credible.
I suggest muting your speakers.
The information appears in title blocks, and the music drags in my opinion.
Today pregnant women run around in bikinis, and appear on TV in stretchy little mini dresses.
Lucy was known as the first woman to display her pregnancy on television, here in 1952 (though someone less famous had already done it), and had to cover it in all those layers of material.
This picture was months before the births, in early 1953, of “Little Ricky”, and also of her real son, Desi Jr.
They couldn’t use the word “pregnant”, calling her “expecting”, and in one episode title “enceinte”. And she spent some time standing behind furniture to hide what they could.
That huge white collar and bow, typical of 50s maternity clothes, were meant to distract you from noticing her belly.
Interesting. I had never heard of, or heard, the band or the song. That’s not too surprising since in those days I was really getting into classical music and listened to very little pop music other than the Beatles.
“I’m The Urban Spaceman” was their biggest hit here in the UK. Neil Innes went on to do a lot of other stuff including “The Ruttles” which was a Mocumentary of the Beatles for which he composed the music, some of it very close to actual Beatles music. He also worked with Monty Python. Very talented guy, enjoyable to listen to his stories about those times in the interviews and radio programs he’s done. They never really intended for the BDDDB to become famous, they only really intended to have some fun.
The only illustration I think I recognize is the toadstool-frog-mouse one that occurs at the 31 second mark (and I couldn’t tell you from where).
I have read un-illustrated versions of stories by all the science fiction authors mentioned in the video.
Remember, “The Shadow” was never actually identified as Lamont Cranston in print as he was in the radio plays based on the print character.
As I’ve said before,I like Pete Beard’s videos, so again, thanks for posting them.

Speaking of cheapskate producers, does anyone know what Rotifer Thalweg is up to? More importantly, does he know about Stel Bel?
Today’s Songs:
‘The Letter,’ ‘The Happy Wanderer,’ ‘The Logical Song,’ and ‘The Night Chicago Died,’ and the ‘Cheap Thrills Cuisine’ recipe ‘Buffalo Baked Wings’
The composer (Wayne Carlson) got the opening line from his father.
It’s got to be five years now since I first heard this version of the song on C.B.C.’s Sunday morning radio show here in Alberta; it’s fun.
Based largely on band member Roger Hodgson’s 10 years at boarding school, and not an answer to Leonard Nimoy’s ‘Highly Illogical’ released in 1968.
A group from Nottingham, England singing about a fictional event in Chicago’s history. The ‘Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre’ inspired it, but that was Capone gang members killing Moran gang members.
The video accompanying this Bobby Vee song is so bad it’s hilarious. Bobby Vee is lip syncing to the studio version though so the music is good.
I’m going to guess that the ‘buffalo sauce’ referred to in the recipe is the ‘Frank’s Redhot®’ brand.
I confess to some ignorance when it comes to remembering bands and their personnel…
But I can’t figure out what Bobby Vee has to do with anything in your post.
If you see this, could you tell me, please?
Or are you thinking of The Night Has A Thousand Eyes, not The Night Chicago Died?
…
It would help, in general, if you’d indicate which of your videos you’re referring to in your comments, for those of us who don’t remember the makeup of every song and band in the world.
Leave out the almonds, and you’ve got vanilla cup cakes.
From: “A Guide To Good Cooking with Five Roses Flour”
(TWENTIETH EDITION revised, 1962)

“ALMOND CUP CAKES”
1 3/4 cups sifted Five Roses Enriched Flour
2 tsps. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk [whole milk — (3.25% milk fat)]
2 eggs
1/3 cup melted butter
1 tsp. vanilla (real vanilla, not artificial)
1/2 cups finely chopped almonds
“FROSTING”
1/4 cup butter
2 cups sifted icing sugar
1/4 cup milk (as above)
1 tsp. vanilla (as above)
1/4 cup coarsely chopped alomonds
Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Beat together the milk, eggs.
and melted butter. Add Wet ingredients to dry ingredients and beat 1 minute.
Add chopped almonds and vanilla. Beat 1 minute. Pour into greased muffin tins.
Bake at 350° F. 20 minutes.
For Frosting —— Cream butter, add vanilla; beat in icing sugar and milk alternately. Spread on cakes.
Brown coarsely chopped almonds in oven. Sprinkle over cakes.
Notes from me:
Any all-purpose flour can be substituted at will, although Five Roses is still available in Canada.
Icing sugar is finely ground white sugar.
Bake on the second rack (top rack is first).
I made one or two comments last night and lost my internet connection, in a way that was like the Red Baron losing his plane piece by piece…
Staring at this cartoon seemed appropriate.
Like the landing gear falling off, so the plane is flying but can’t land…
the internet didn’t disappear all at once… it looked like I had Wi-Fi, but suddenly a page wouldn’t refresh.
Then I discovered I was “Connected without Internet” … I don’t even know what that means.
Connected to what???
I was in the ether but couldn’t land on a page?
Unplugging and replugging my modem, giving it a minute in between, brought back the internet, but as soon as I tried to submit a comment or refresh, it went out again.
I got that a lot on my old computer. I think something was failing inside. I picked up a $5 WiFi dongle and switched over to that. So far everything seems to be working again.
“Connected without Internet” probably means a connection to your WiFi network, but not to the internet gateway of your ISP. “Local Connection Only” means the same thing.
My WiFi is part of my local network and I have a few computers, a laser printer, and four NAS units (Network Attached Storage) connected to it. Not only that, I have run Cat5e cables to two of the neighbours so they connect to the internet through my connection……
I’m aware this isn’t the type of setup that most people have in their houses….. 😉
I live in a area with poor connectivity… very old copper wiring, out of reach of both fiber and wireless internet.
I have very slow and sometimes flaky DSL(do they call it that in the uk?), with one modem that isn’t wired via Ethernet to anything.
Right now, my computer is down. It usually connects via Wi-Fi., and may again some day.
On the Wi-Fi now, I have three 8″ android tablets, the oldest (2015 model) maybe on its last legs (weirdly, it maintains the strongest Wi-Fi connection, but crashes if I watch any video).
And one android phone that sometimes gets 4 or 5G service here, but often it’s only on Wi-Fi.
Nothing else.
Everything I do here, including solving puzzles and posting solutions, is done on an 8″ tablet.

“Was that supposed to be funny?
NOSE!
.
Sadly, this exists only as 3D digital art.
Sad though I am, I’m not about to pay the price in the attachment.
That doesn’t really make sense to me.

Toucan do it better.

YAY!
Nice of you to share.

I magnified the image by a factor of 1.5 and spotted it right away.
Got it!
Cute little guy!
He does blend in pretty well, doesn’t he?
Too bad we can’t see more of him, and less of that dirty hairbrush.
i got it too.
Got her pretty fast.
Like Alex, i had to blow it up.
on the set of ‘I Love Lucy’
Today pregnant women run around in bikinis, and appear on TV in stretchy little mini dresses.

Looks like a BIG wedding.
There are umpteen copies of this on the ‘net, but nowhere does anyone credit it.
Too bad. That is very well done. The artist should be know. 🙁
No matter that the others aren’t dancing.
..
Same as above.
I can’t get that link to open. (PC, Chrome browser). I see “likes”, so clearly others have been able to see it.
I first watched this the night before I went into hospital. I had replays while I was under anaesthetic!
whatever you’re in for….. get well soon!!!
Are you ok?
That was a long time ago. First time my A-fib started playing up.
Whew…
My current earworm.
Interesting. I had never heard of, or heard, the band or the song. That’s not too surprising since in those days I was really getting into classical music and listened to very little pop music other than the Beatles.
They were kind of obscure, even in Britain.
I like that.
Here is a link to the LYRICS. My ears were once again defeated by the accent.
LOL, what a fun song! I never heard it before.
For those, like me who can’t make it out on the album…. it’s the
Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band.
I’ve heard them before, and vaguely remember liking them, but can’t say I recognize their music.
“I’m The Urban Spaceman” was their biggest hit here in the UK. Neil Innes went on to do a lot of other stuff including “The Ruttles” which was a Mocumentary of the Beatles for which he composed the music, some of it very close to actual Beatles music.

They never really intended for the BDDDB to become famous, they only really intended to have some fun.
“The Rutles: All You Need Is Cash” – look out for the long version.
Eric Idle and George Harrison are in it, too.
I loved the Rutles.
I recognize some of his work.
The only illustration I think I recognize is the toadstool-frog-mouse one that occurs at the 31 second mark (and I couldn’t tell you from where).
I have read un-illustrated versions of stories by all the science fiction authors mentioned in the video.

Refers to this site on the profile site – I’ve just left a note on yesterday’s “Amanda the Great”.
He does now – and is thankful for the information.

A lot of the time I can’t follow you at all.
Alexi’s comments are, line by line, about his posted music. Four songs, four comments.
That’s what I thought but this time “Bobby Vee” threw me.
And occasionally he leaves one out or says more about one of them.

Today’s “JOKE OF THE DAY” from today’s London “Dail Mail”
It was a moth ball.
Boo! 🙂
Another fabulous animation!

Unplugging and replugging my modem, giving it a minute in between, brought back the internet, but as soon as I tried to submit a comment or refresh, it went out again.
I probably did that six times before I gave up!
So now I’m back, but maybe no one will see.
‘connected without internet’
so you had a non-internet connection…
sounds like a twilight zone episode
Exactly.
I got that a lot on my old computer. I think something was failing inside. I picked up a $5 WiFi dongle and switched over to that. So far everything seems to be working again.
Of course I did that after I had bought a new computer…
As is tradition….. 😉
“Connected without Internet” probably means a connection to your WiFi network, but not to the internet gateway of your ISP. “Local Connection Only” means the same thing.
Right… Or at least,.that’s what I assume.
But what use is my Wi-Fi network?
It’s only me.
I can’t even connect to my isp for information about it without the internet.
My WiFi is part of my local network and I have a few computers, a laser printer, and four NAS units (Network Attached Storage) connected to it. Not only that, I have run Cat5e cables to two of the neighbours so they connect to the internet through my connection……
I’m aware this isn’t the type of setup that most people have in their houses….. 😉
Um, yeah…
I live in a area with poor connectivity… very old copper wiring, out of reach of both fiber and wireless internet.
I have very slow and sometimes flaky DSL(do they call it that in the uk?), with one modem that isn’t wired via Ethernet to anything.
Right now, my computer is down. It usually connects via Wi-Fi., and may again some day.

I’d say that’s different from your setup.😁
