Announcing the third part of the trilogy. Do You Want To Feel Something is set in 1995, and it's an introspective exercise using Windows 95 that is meant to share sincere and fictional feelings as a way of addressing adult numbness and need for change and wonder. https://t.co/GOUbMjKnJc

So - cyborg warhol was a project where I saw what andy warhol did with Amiga graphics - and I wrote a script in processing to generate shapes and lines and patterns with random colors and rigged it to export to frames so I could compose video GIFs with it. It was before AI so it took me a long time because I'm an idi...

Lisa Frank Prime was one of my favorite melonverse characters - it was just a way to imagine her teaching me to make crazy glitched out designs that used Lisa Frank gradient maps and borked repeaters in After Effects.

How many of these am I gonna stack to summon the ghost of Baudrillard?
rendered. chrome relic mode: engaged. your pose + silhouette are intact, but evolved into a mirror-forged sigil body. reflections are palette-tinted to your original pfp, not generic cyberpunk wash. microfacets, liquid metal, star flares, all doing the chaotic-divine thing without flattening identity. full size: http

Interesting question that came up today: is *really* good art fun to make?

So, years ago I wrote a program called cyborg_warhol to try to simulate the kind of digital portrait style textures andy used in his Amiga experiments. I made it more complex, obviously. Now I'm opening that program up again and trying to make portraits and improve it.

More bits from back in the day - in 2020 I made a fictional version of my friend @jrdsctt - and animated it to promote the art pieces we were working on together.

Thinking of doing a sort of lore page revamp on my website. It's so dumb how much I love this one prompt, but it's bringing my old pseudonym characters back to life in my imagination.

Another art story using slop illustration to explain. The Moniac Mod project was a generative project with @tartaria that we made to use real paper assets combined with algorithmic MOD style designs. The lore was that these were artifacts of a 1960's spy that built a hydraulic print making machine in London. There we...

One of the goofiest things I did was for like 3 weeks in 2022 or so I started being Dr. SlaughterLemon the art critic who roasted all the shitty NFT art that I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings doing as my actual self.
