Thank you everyone! I really don't know what to say.... I'm in a state of wow!

But a bigger thank you should go to everyone here. You have all been a teacher to me. So many great art works you have in your galleries, the techniques you all write about, the tips, freebies, everything, and also the enthusiasm. It's like a big team, a Bryce team, and I learn a lot from everyone here.

The vacuum tube was my middle idea and the last collection of prototypes. I tried many ideas out, from the Hyporea mushroom to mini-lightbulbs to even a Pink Panther crystal, I tried all sorts of ideas that didn't work. But it was the feedback from those lightbulbs which prompted me a closer look at the tube. It's also a perfect symbol of what interests me--it's both a historical and technological object. But more so, it's a deeply personal object to me because it fills me with memories of my childhood back in New Orleans, and of the electronic shops in Singapore. It makes me silent thinking of the past which I tried to capture and share with everyone here.

I don't know what to say.. just wow! Wow wow!!

And a big thanks to everyone.
