Jared Axelrod is an author, an illustrator, a graphic designer, a sculptor, a costume designer, a podcaster and quite a few other things that he's lost track of but will no doubt remember when the situation calls for it.
He is a founding member of the daily flash-fiction website 365 TOMORROWS, and the writer and producer of two science-fiction podcasts, “The Voice Of Free Planet X” and the serial “Aliens You Will Meet.
He is not domestic, he is a luxury, and in that sense, necessary.

Inspecting The Machinery
April 17th, 2009
Yes that, is me in my natural habitat, looking dapper while tinkering with devices unknown. The Default Jared State, you might say.
This was taken at a sneak-peak viewing of The American Philosophical Society Museum’s wondrous “Dialogues With Darwin” exhibit. They’ve got a rather swell Flickr Gallery of some of the glorious books they have on display, but the scans do not do the pages justice. Sylwester Ratowt did an excellent job of guiding us through the work. Among other gems in the exhibit, Ratowt pointed out that Darwin was a great admirer of William Paley’s “Watch in the desert” argument. His studies that led to Origin of the Species were, in fact, his way of answering Paley’s rhetorical question of how complex creatures could have come into existence without a divine hand.
Chuck clearly was man who couldn’t leave well enough alone.
In addition to some amazing books that preceded and succeeded Origin of the Species, the APS Museum also has the amazing “Lost Notebooks,” art created for the exhibit by Eve Andrée Laramée. That’s her piece, “The Awareness of The Cells” that I’m looking at. The whole room is a treasur-trove, really. You must see this work for yourself. Lucky for you, it opened today.
