Casting is a manufacturing process by which a liquid material is usually poured into a mold, which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then allowed to solidify. The solidified part is also known as a casting, which is ejected or broken out of the mold to complete the process. Casting materials are usually metals or various cold setting materials that cure after mixing two or more components together; examples are epoxy, concrete, plaster and clay. Casting is most often used for making complex shapes that would be otherwise difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods.
Casting is a 6000 year old process. The oldest surviving casting is a copper frog from 3200 BC.
Metal casting is one of the most common casting processes.
Plaster itself may be cast, as can other chemical setting materials such as concrete or plastic resin - either using single-use waste molds as noted above or multiple-use 'piece' molds, or molds made of small ridged pieces or of flexible material such as latex rubber (which is in turn supported by an exterior mold). When casting plaster or concrete, the finished product is, unlike marble, unattractive, lacking in transparency, and so it is usually painted, often in ways that give the appearance of metal or stone. Alternatively, the first layers cast may contain colored sand so as to give an appearance of stone. By casting concrete, rather than plaster, it is possible to create sculptures, fountains, or seating for outdoor use. A simulation of high-quality marble may be made using certain chemically-set plastic resins (for example epoxy or polyester) with powdered stone added for coloration, often with multiple colors worked in. The latter is a common means of making attractive washstands, washstand tops and shower stalls, with the skilled working of multiple colors resulting in simulated staining patterns as is often found in natural marble or travertine.

Plot: Nobody Needs to Know is a story of Fame and the towns and industries and the people who create it and support it. It's the story of two actresses on divergent paths who unwittingly illustrate the power of Fame and its ability to pursue those who run from it and run from those who pursue it. Aesthetically. it's an alchemy of Nathaniel West's The Day of the Locust, The Shadow radio serial, Ralph Ellison's The Invisible Man, and Juergen Teller's Go-See's mixed and sampled to create a sublime cinematic Paul's Boutique for the Era of the Image and beyond.
Genres: Drama,The curtain's dropping
I stand in the fading lights of my summer
My heart is breaking
'Coz the happiest time of my life is ending
Never laughing, only forgetting
As I lose my memory
The sun is for the last time setting
All the time it takes
My whole life could never last that long
It's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence
Now I'm dreaming
Of someone so precious
The world's too cruel to
Hold her in its arms and hatefully break her
Now I'm leaving
I'm standing at the front door for the last time
I was coasting in a dream world
Smiling faces are no more
All the time it takes
My whole life could never last that long
It's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence
If you're coasting, if you're sailing
If you're dreaming
You can be my friend, we can dream together
If you're coasting, if you're smiling
If you're nowhere
Hide your face till no one's looking
All the time it takes
My whole life could never last that long
It's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence
I try so hard
But I can never have her back again
I lost it all, she heard me cry
And she knows so well
That it's sad but it's true so I must get on
With my short life meandering on and on
Into inexistence
If you like me, if you're like me
If you're coasting
