Archival Note Card Mechanical Integrations by Michael Pantuso: Lobster

Lobster split cleanly down the middle, flesh on one side and scaffolding on the other.

This archival note card, mechanical integrations series is by Michael Pantuso. It is archival paper. Archival paper is made to be acid-free, which helps it resist yellowing and brittleness, and it is often chosen for cards, prints and documents meant to last. Tall card where the left half is grey rods, hinges and pistons, and the right half is a red-orange lobster with long antennae. A blue fan tail glints at the bottom. Fine pen lines circle the whole creature. It is 7 inches long and 5 high.

Dinner and diagram, politely sharing a plate.
