Description i wasn't sure if i was going to put this on here, but i can't help the geek i am. i made an IDIC necklace to wear to the new movie. i wore it and no one seemed to notice whatsoever, but i was aware of it, so that was all that mattered. it seems i am singular in my geekdom at work and family settings as well. i've not had a single person recognize what it is. oh well. i stuck on a cap of Spock wearing his because he is awesome. XD

How much would you charge to make one and sell it to me? I could pay up to $10ish but we can barter and I could pay you through paypal since that is very reliable.

I love it! The concept of of Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations is an important one, especially now. Diversity must never be considered a dirty word. Roddenberry himself said that humanity would only have reached maturity and started to grow in wisdom when we move beyond just "tolerance" of other races and cultures and begin to delight in the differences in thought, ideas & culture these people represent. He said that Star Trek was meant to represent that ideal future for the human race.

I don't remember that.. what episode was it in? It looks really cool though, and I would do the same ;wear something not many people would know about, but be happy because of the fact

The episode was "Is There In Truth No Beauty?" where he also wears that cool visor thing. I always find it amusing to see actors from the original series later portraying different characters altogether in later series.

Just like I thought, I haven't seen that episode yet I'm getting through them and I must have skipped over it because of the whole "alien that you can't look at for fear of going insane" thing.. but now that I'm looking at it, that's the next one I'll watch What do you mean though? And why is Spock wearing a pendant anyway?

Dr. Miranda Jones in that episode is played by the same actress as Next Generation's Dr. Pulaski.

Spock wears the IDIC necklace in that episode to sort of honor Dr. Jones. She worked with the Vulcan Science Academy even though she's human, which was a pretty big thing back then. ^_^

Ah.. that's interesting. And now I know what IDIC stands for Well, I knew before but the abbreviation didn't click. And that's a cool concept, I didn't even think that a human had done that. I bet it was.. and I like the idea of Spock honouring another human from the academy. I bet once I see the episode I'll want a pendant like this one too It really is cool.

People can be pretty oblivious, I brought my tribble to the first showing of the movie and everyone thought it was a rabbit.

And kudos too for having such a unique way of expressing your trek-love xD I love IDIC...

Understated but completely obvious to anyone who would know. much easier than trying to glue on a pair of pointed ears. heheh

Wow, this is so pretty that I would actually consider wearing it - I tried to make one myself, but unfortunately it looked very cheap and hand-made I may be a geek, but not enough so to wear this ugly result, so it remains at home in my drawer. But yours is very nice... what size is it? I noticed that some of your other pretty jewelry was made with polymer clay, don't tell me this is too?

I would have expected that some people would recognize it, though. Well, I tend to forget that not everyone is as crazy as I am, I guess

Yeah, it's polymer clay, with a glass jewel i pried out of an old piece of costume jewelry. haha.

Amazing, it really looks like metal. Mine was quite similar, also with a tiny glass stone, but didn't look that good. After seeing yours, I tried again and like the result slightly better, though I'm still not completely satisfied...

I admit, it did fan the flames of my uh..fan-ness. But yeah...totally in love with Spock since about 1987.

^.^ Season 3: Episode 5 with the Medusan Ambassador. You are not alone. I have always wanted one of these necklaces but haven't found the time to actually construct one.

Well done!
