Now that's odd
There's an ad for an upcoming biography. Apparently an artist who got his start hiding in a storage box so he could knit. I guess someone didn't think a young boy should be doing this, so he did it in secret.
Now, the box had a pinhole and one day as he sat there wielding his needles, he noticed a beautiful view of grass and flowers on the wall. So later he constructed a large box, put a copper sheet with a hole in it on ore side, and happily painted away at the projected image.
I think this is called a camera obscura in the west. But what fascinated me was the original knitting in a box. I'm a little surprised that a kid would be that fascinated by knitting.
