Put a nail through the center screen of your phone and then look through the little hole ????. Stand with your back to the sun and use your phone as a mirror to watch the solar eclipse if your battery dies. ????. Absolutely don’t take your friend that tells jokes all the time to this solar eclipse because they’ll talk all the way through it. ????????????. Don’t eclipse your eclipse by taking the dips. ❤

Went to Carhenge (ne) for the first one in 2017, performed a marching show at the height of it for the one in 2023, going to Texas for this one, and hopefully Spain for the one in 2026. Truly wild that I’ll live to experience that.

What is the point of the solar filter for your phone camera?

News Tells You What Happened. Drawing Shows You How It Felt | George Butler | TED

What does a war look like when you sit still long enough to draw it? Reportage artist and TED Fellow George Butler sketches the people that the news passes by: a 99-year-old survivor of the Holodomor famine in Ukraine, a man gathering books blasted into a rose garden, an architect whose home was hit by a Russian missile. Urging us to slow down in the age of immediate news, Butler shows how a drawing reveals what a headline can’t. (Recorded at TED2026 on April 16, 2026)
