[[File:akki14.jpg|200px|thumb|right]] Hello! I'm Heather aka Akki14 on IRC and here. You can just call me Akki or Mrs. S or Heather. It's pronounced Ah-key and it's from Jane Yolen's Dragons Blood novels. I liked the character because she's a bit headstrong and independent which I always hoped to be (and may slowly be getting to that point after a decade or so).
 
I have lots of different interests, ranging from domestic, to science, to the arts.
 
  
[http://www.stargazy.org Stargazy Photography] is my website. I make cyanotypes and use a big (sort of) 4x5inch sheet film camera.
 
 
== Future Projects ==
 
Helping on [[http://wiki.london.hackspace.org.uk/view/Events/Food_Hacking Food Hacking]]
 
* Possibly a wooden 5x4 film camera. Possibly one like MLP:FIM :P
 
* 10x8 split-back contact printing frame. 
 
* Bookbinding stuff - specifically a laying press (or steal/borrow a workmate and modify if necessary), and a plough (fancypants paper trimming for books)
 
* The weird LEDs-in-resin-nightlight weekend project from MAKE (I have fancy LEDs for this purpose... just need the resin now)
 
* Fake cola *not* using essential oils because they're difficult to obtain, and in the case of neroli oil, expensive to obtain.
 
* MOAR BLINKEN LIGHTEN!
 
* MOAR CAKES&cookies&foodstuff ...
 
== Projects Finished/WIP ==

* Little table contraption for my UV light that I use for making cyanotypes. [[File:Uvtable.jpg]]
 
* Crochet hook
 
 
 
== Stuff I'd like to donate but do not think there is space in The Space for it yet ==
 
 
* small (medium format film size) contact printing frames once we have a darkroom going in the Wet Room so we can use it for making alt process prints (cyanotypes, van dyke brown prints, etc.)
 
* Possibly a medium format (120 film) Brownie camera or two for people to use/abuse, probably more useful once we have the darkroom/Wet Room up and running.
 
 
== Box Location ==
 
 
Using the new labelling system - s09b12. I like occasional gifts and surprises (<b>nice</b> surprises, no dead bugs etc, please. They won't scare me, they're just a bit gross :/)
 
Please don't put things on top of my box! I am quite short and it's a bit of a stretch to get my box as it is without having to go find a chair to climb onto to take someone else's stuff off my box :(
