grateful to rhizome & artwrld for having me alongside many new media greats im forever inspired by

do i know anyone who'll be around San Francisco March ~9-14? do you have a performance, short film/video, or experimental thing that makes use of/is about games? (something to present/show rather than install, not a talk but more)

lmk..! scheming for an evening of game performances & screenings :)

a screenshot of a long winding brutalist staircase. there is a poem written on the wall. light comes through the windows. paint splats are on the stairs.

a screenshot of a tree that looks like a human bowing. the tree is large and covered in dandelion whisps. there is a poem at the base of the screen.

a screenshot looking up at old brutalist buildings. the buildings are abandoned.

a screenshot of a desert filled with dead trees. the dead trees almost look human. there is a poem at the base of the screen.

🌼My new game is here!🥀

vhs-y glitch pixel art painting, blue and pink hues

kinda "nighttime city vibes" pixel art painting. broken purple vertical lines/grid and some hot pink triangles

I've been working on a new painting toy for pixel artists, and I'd love to find a few folks to test it out and give feedback. I'm already having a lot of fun with it. Message me here or email!

but They don't like it when I say this in soundcheck

I like to call the 3.5mm to 1/4" a "small to big"

A slide from Tarn Adam's talk at Northwestern's Progression Mechanics, giving a systemic diagram to the sentence "A flock of sparrows landed and ate most of the pill bugs, but one managed to survive to lay some eggs."

I've called the process of designing a system from an inspiration set "story interpolation" (middling term, admittedly). I love to use this slide from a talk Tarn gave at Northwestern's Progression Mechanics to illustrate the concept

I cannot "upgrade to macOS sequoia". i am seeing another world on my desktop

one of my art professors in college spent an hour showing us his gallery exhibitions of skyrim & rdd screenshots... he did change my life

playing with a way to edit & publish text-first pages that breathe & move: describe effects & transitions, pipe in data, branch lightly

between Twinery, notion-like editors, how kids innovate on Wattpad/ao3

for small narratives, interactive editorials, and more experimental writing & publishing

i made the mistake of 'hacking' on a 'simple' 'text editor' in my free time

my whole life is just a practice of making to make myself

on 'broadcast' platforms like blogs, twitter, this — I kind of don't want anyone to talk back to me, ever

Screenshot of a quote from Tan Lin reading: "The most beautiful thing is a book that could read itself!", A Book is Technology: An Interview with Tan Lin by Angela Genusa

my belief

new update to kakakompyutermoyan.com ♬📺 television in your living room with 30 relatives in the corner dreaming mode

faker as religious experience

the language used around league of legends now feels very different from when i was a babbling 12 year old playing around S2. now regularly speaking on priority, agency, 'non-interactivity'... all beautiful to me.. even 'inting' instead of feeding is gorgeous, esp when it is not actually intentional
