Happy National Tequila Day! Did you know the frozen margarita machine was invented by Mariano Martinez of Mariano's Hacienda Ranch in Dallas in 1971, a legacy you can still witness at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History: https://bit.ly/3WxoLri We launched our Margarita Mile program in 2018, inspired by Mariano's genius invention. Today, visitors to Dallas can enjoy five decades of heritage and innovation and pay homage to this invention on the Margarita Mile – a self-guided trail of Dallas' best and brightest margaritas: https://bit.ly/3xkAdJ0

Isthmus Energy Systems is focused on developing agrivoltaic projects at the intersection of energy, agriculture, and sustainability.
The American Bison is the keystone species of the Great Plains. Illinois is the Prairie State. One of my goals is to see millions of acres to Bison range restored by grazing them beneath wind turbines combined with agrivoltaics. I've been inspired by Earthship Biotecture building methods throughout my life and hope to see earth berm passive geothermal structures create large enclosures combined with high tension electric fencing to make a series of zones for various agrivoltaics, carbon removal, and microgrids to support new advanced manufacturing based on the synergies of these methods. Biochar is one of most promising forms of carbon removal that can enter many aspects of circular economies and even value added to graphene using Flash Joule Heating. Modular datacenters with batched computing capable of balancing the grid can be paired with energy storage on every transformer at the base of each wind turbine or solar grid interconnection point. As a society we should aspire to build resilient infrastructure that is impervious to unforeseen future incidents like an Asteroid impact and so Earth Berm structures can protect these uninterruptible power supplies while sheltering the true treasure of this country in the form of biodiversity of living species across the great plains and their original stewards, The American Bison.
Hey You! Did you know buffalo is a common name or nickname for North American bison. It comes from the French word: boeufs (which means beef) Learn more out these amazing creatures on our website bisoncenter.org or stop in the museum today!

It's a special moment when the technology you've been building becomes a tool that artist can utilize to make a powerful statement. "“Art” is weighted heavily towards what art most appears in the data, which explains perhaps the prevalence of more contemporary fantasy illustration or concept art in generic text-to-image outputs. This attempt to determine objective ground truth makes sense in a journalistic or commercial context, however in realms like art, culture and identity risks tethering us to populist, gameable or impenetrably reductive representations of areas that are crucially fluid."

Super cool seeing 'xhairymutantx' by artists Holly Herndon and Mat Dryhurst at this year's Whitney Museum of American Art Biennial. The project's image generation portal was built using OctoAI! Try it yourself at xhairymutantx.whitney.org 🎨

Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past. ATTN NASHVILLIANS WHO WANT TO ACTIVELY SHAPE OUR FUTURE… are you also controlling the past?? Are you controlling your present?? If you haven’t already signed up, this is an incredibly powerful way to take this moment in time to directly impact the way we move in the future… to combat the censorship and revisionist history some other (ahem) groups are pushing. Historians know that it’s not just about interrogating the voices we do hear, but also interrogating the cause of absent voices. And asking “If the voice were present, what would it say? How would it impact the story that’s being told?” Too much of history education is already reduced to excerpts and quotes taken out of context, and truly voices are at real risk of erasure. Come hear their stories before they’re lost to history so that we can impact a more thoughtful, inclusive future. Also Tamyra Gordon MSEd is just really fantastic and you should support her work. 💥

It’s August - officially days away from our Greenwood Seneca and #preservationsocietynashville next Your Legacy Tours event at TRAVELLERS REST HISTORIC HOUSE MUSEUM INC 🖤 If we don’t go back with the goal of reclaiming their names and narrative then we leave them to be erased. Join us on their grounds, the space they occupied and continue to call them into existence. The truth is at risk of extinction. Let us be their storytellers. 📖✊🏽 Link to join below. ⬇️ A few spots left. https://lnkd.in/g_VmHAdy

🦐 Curious to see how we can harness the real power of the sea? Make your way to ARTIS | Natura Artis Magistra Groote Museum and explore ways that we can cultivate land, sea, and the lab to provide for our ever growing population. Here's a little snippet of the sea video, told by Reinier (R.W.) Nauta, produced by BIND and animated by me at YIPP!
