My media art digital thinkers #StarterPack is full! This is a joy, because it means Bluesky is now bursting with the kind of people I want to share a community with. But it's also sad, because there are plenty more people I would love to add. We need 150+++ starterpacks please @bsky.app

Some underrated sites that are constantly posting cool stuff and are great resources for me: Open Culture, Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive, and the Public Domain Review. I bookmarked them because algorithms feed me pure garbage.

Today my book of poems ALL THE WAY FOR THE WIN was published by Penteract Press: penteractpress.com/store/all-th... It begins with the birth of the universe & concludes with the eradication of the last human-authored poetic text. And it consists entirely of three-letter words.

"The sea of visual culture used to train AI models is often conflated with the "somewhere else" that motivates human creativity. But somewhere else is more than Web ads and stock photography and scraped Reddit posts used to train AI. There is more than one somewhere else."

The main argument for a Strategic BItcoin Reserve seems to be that Bitcoin holders worry about an impending shortage of greater fools and need the US government to act as the greatest fool of last resort.

I am a middle-class Black American housewife who chromakeys movies in my livingroom. 17 years as a solo performer/playwright provided me roots for filmmaking. Influenced by Theatre of the Absurd, silent film, German Expressionism, the New Wave(s), dance theater, and Butoh.

I wrote a bit about IDEs, and about how lots of creative coding languages/IDEs assume the user doesn't want to code (which is essential to get people into programming! But I ask what happens next?) and some silly experiments I have been doing! www.media.mit.edu/projects/exp...

Not finding any other Starter Packs devoted to 1990s/2000s internet artists [or 'net.artists' as we were known back then] and theorists, I started my own: go.bsky.app/9t3Tejg. If you're an original #netart OGer reach out to be added [eg JODI, Antiorp or the VNS Matrix gals etc would be fab to add].
