i think the aspiration or at least the one that should be is to be dependent on independence.
what i mean by this is to be free, and sovereign over our attention and our time and even our inner life (though we may need something more to get that sovereignty).
but the truth is that we are dependent on platforms, and...

i've always thought that the intent behind how i use an AI tool is what defines the piece of art or anything else i am working on. it's what makes it resonate or fall flat.
AI is a tool i use as an extension of my thinking, or as a way to finally realize things i've always envisioned but never had the skills to creat...

kindness is more interesting than taste. so what if we shift the discussion?
"do they have good taste?" to "are you kind?"
"i trust their taste" to "i trust their kindness"
"that was in poor taste" to "that was in poor kindness" 🌹

i felt the need to add some more thoughts to this:
1. i don't think digital media will go to $0 because of ai. people won't stop buying digital because anyone can make something with ai. i would even say that ai enriches the digital experiences that we currently have. it's an extension of what we have now, not somethi...
as much as i wish this not to be true, i think digital media will go to $0 and what will matter more is physical stuff, experiences, things that are more tangible.
this doesn't mean digital will disappear as i believe will still be really important, but as an additional experience rather than the main one, at least i

His name is Gordon Onslow Ford.
He was born on December 26, 1912, in Wendover, England, and h...

people used to go to art and artists for meaning but most of them replaced them for metrics. metrics are the new meaning. the higher the metrics, the more meaningful the piece.🌹

so i've been trying to answer the question of whether ai will be an originator of our taste or a reflection of it in my previous essay. and this is the conclusion i reached is:
it depends entirely on us. on how much we bring, on how much we are willing to notice, and on whether we choose to give more context, a more ...

3/4 artists i reached out to, asking if it’s ok to have their pieces curated in the first edition of the zine, accepted and i am so so excited!!!🌹
working on my first zine.
i have only 172 subscribers (approx. 40-50 constant readers per essay), not a huge following on social media, but i don't want that to stop me from following my dreams and ideas.
the zine will be handwritten, will feature two essays exclusive to it, curated artists, art, and some other ele

whether it is art, people, moments, or even ourselves, we give them, and everything, half a second now.
we move so fast that nothing has the time to land, and we’ve gotten so used to the speed that we don’t even notice what we’re missing anymore.
we hold the most powerful tools ever created in our hands and have acc...
