Dead/Dying Authors Rejoice
Nadine Jarvis has designed a pencil ‘made from the carbon of human remains.’
240 pencils can be made from an average body of ash – a lifetime supply of pencils for those left behind. Each pencil is foil stamped with the name of the person. Only one pencil can be removed at a time, it is then sharpened back into the box causing the sharpenings to occupy the space of the used pencils. Over time the pencil box fills with sharpenings – a new ash, transforming it into an urn. The window acts as a timeline, showing you the amount of pencils left as time goes by.

I would do this because I have ashes I need to dispose of (and no this is not a joke) but there is no information about it–like, how much it costs, for one thing. Also, can you even ship ashes/urn to another country? Can you even ship them across the US? And is this an actual thing that she’s doing? Is she really taking orders?

this is incredibly creepy and so insanely wonderful. i kind of want to do it for myself, but i’d be dead. and i don’t know if i’d want to impose myself on anyone like that, forcing them to remember me when they make lists for deodorant, tampons, and cup o’ soup. some people have a tendency to chew on pencils too. wouldn’t that border on cannibalism? personally i don’t like pencils, especially because they smudge, and then if they smudge on you it’s kind of weird to have a dead person on you. if they could do a pen, like james said, i think i’d be more into that, more permanent; although that might have worse implications.
man, i’m torn about this. i’m kind of enamoured by the idea though. the whole embalming thing is just so stupid, and the ashes in a urn thing is weak; to be transformed so immediately back into the land of the living in the form of dead symbols that pulse with mental and such deep emotional life is rather stunning.

I like this. i want to see ALL burial eliminated. Waste of space, waste/contamination of chemicals, creepy.
I love disc golf.
The founder put his actual ashes into discs we can play with.

His ashes fly through the air as we play the game.

Pencils aren’t people, just as your Lego Mega Submarine was not the Multicoloured Lego Fortress which preceded it. I think you’d be in the clear, cannibalism-wise.
Sounds pretty cool, but yeah, it might end up being like you were imposing yourself. I guess you’d have to make sure the pencils were going to the right sort of person.

Crematoriums pollute and contribute to global warming.
The only green burial is to let the body rot in a park or garden.

But cremation is less environmentally negative than burial. And the actual space used is obvious. And his ashes in the discs carries on disc golf, a legacy of making public spaces MORE environmetal. He gets to live on after his death. To improve our environ.
The ash discs actually raise money for D golf.
D golf is one of the most addictive yet environ friendly sports ever.
Also, I like the just die under a tree idea. This is what I would like. Actually, I want my body floated down a smallmouth river.

yeah and i have other questions too like: do i need to know th eperson who im turning into a pencil? do they ask a bunch of question sabout the corpse you send them? will they ship to an po box w/o a name and not ask a bunch of nosy-posey questions? also how much pressure should one apply to a hookers throat to avoid bruising but also keep the noise to a minimum?

How is that? If we did away with coffins and tossed people raw into the earth with only a tiny etched-on rock marking their remains—isn’t that basically how we were supposed to go? How would cremation be better than that?

That sounds cool.

WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY. YOU ARE SO ANGRY ALL OF THE TIME. IT’S CLEAR THIS IS LIKE MASTURBATION TO YOU. IN A COUPLE OF DAYS YOU WILL EXPEND ALL OF YOUR ENERGY AND DIZZZIPATE.

I’m glad you’re asking these questions, nBN. Somebody needs to.
Suspect graphite dildos’ ruboff would build up over time and ultimately seal off the orifice.

Why do you need the etched on rock?
I’m saying burn me and spread me over a forest or river.
I don’t need an artifact. I am 100% meaningless.
