Send this to people who claim AI isn't taking artists' jobs. There is no amount of 'adapting' that will spontaneously generate more work if companies decide they don't want to pay you anymore. www.ft.com/content/185e...

My message to the world

Ladies and gentleman, I present to you … artificial super-intelligence

Valentines Day lab meeting in the UT Insect Collection was unconventional.

One month to go! If anyone needs to an excuse to head to Canada for a bit, TCTC is a great time

A little motivation for your Sunday from David Lynch 🤍

Always worth returning to Mark Fisher on this subject. He discusses how a movie like WALL-E peforms our political action for us and therefore has a pacifying effect. Feeling self-satisfied that we have played our part by agreeing with the message, we are no longer compelled to take further action

if you want artists to make weirder art, you have to create stable living conditions that allow them to. homogeneity isn't a matter of artists lacking culture-- there are many soulful artists out there-- it's a matter of unregulated corporate dominance combined with artists who cant afford to create

Atmospheric wide shot, please! #storyboards #storyartist
