It was my mother who
introduced me to wild grapes,

is excreted bodies
of tiny bacteria.
538

They've taken the iron

539

that was weathering out
of the soil in that ditch,
540

541
00:44:22,834 --> 00:44:27,055
they get their energy by having
the iron combine with oxygen,
542
00:44:27,186 --> 00:44:31,016
and they make an iron oxide
out of that process.
543

Most all guns are made

It's one of my very
favourite pigments,
955
01:16:52,303 --> 01:16:54,610
and it does fun tricks
with a magnet.
956
01:17:03,140 --> 01:17:07,971
To me, ink is defined
by its preciousness,
957
01:17:08,101 --> 01:17:11,148
and it's really the
investment in the ink
958
01:17:11,278 --> 01:17:15,369
that a person makes
that gives it its power.
959
01:17:15,500 --> 01:17:18,938
It's the investment a
person puts into the material.
960
01:17:19,069 --> 01:17:21,724
Guns are kind of, like, the
opposite of that in a way.
961
01:17:21,854 --> 01:17:24,814
They take stuff away a lot.
962
01:17:24,944 --> 01:17:29,122
But they produce
so much pigment.
963
01:17:29,253 --> 01:17:31,168
I calculated it once.
964
01:17:31,298 --> 01:17:34,127
It was a rifle barrel,
965
01:17:34,258 --> 01:17:36,434
and I was trying to figure out
966
01:17:36,564 --> 01:17:38,784
how much ink I
could get out of it,
967
01:17:38,915 --> 01:17:42,570
and my math was certainly off,
968
01:17:42,701 --> 01:17:45,835
but I believe you can get
969
01:17:45,965 --> 01:17:50,317
about 1100 King James Bibles
worth of ink
970
01:17:50,448 --> 01:17:55,192

Jason: When I first
started my company,
972
01:18:18,563 --> 01:18:20,608

sending out little
messages in a bottle,
974

though it started

thing, it really is...
977
01:18:32,011 --> 01:18:34,927
The thing that's
made it take off is Instagram.
978
01:18:36,929 --> 01:18:39,410
