across the fungiverse: fungal ecologies, materials and soundscapes — School of Machines, Making, and Make-Believe

am looking fwd to "across the fungiverse: fungal ecologies, materials and soundscapes" class at the School of Machines - exploring "the mysterious and magical world of fungi, combining mycology, history, material science, and sensory experience" www.schoolofma.org/programs/p/e... always learn a lot!

now reading: "Bio Design: Nature + Science + Creativity" by William Myers / MoMA. very inspiring uses of materials, beautiful too. useful for research for my current piece (if it all comes together)

Root and Branch - Wonderground Neha Kale profiles three artists who re-imagine ideas of kinship and ask us to look closely at ties that bind.

good luck. it's a worry

the only positive thing would be if it changed to a 'free the data' scenario in response. better for all (in most cases)

pretty worrying hearing about some of these data sources being shutdown/closed off in US.

feels like they were uplifted into the (proprietary) ML training buckets then closed off at the source. this will be an issue in future, even with advanced search/research algorithms

currently reading: "Virtual Art: From Illusion to Immersion" by Oliver Grau - delving into illusion & immersion throughout art history, where vr/xr etc is just the tip of the iceberg

The 2025 Workshop on Computer Vision for Mixed Reality (CV4MR) will take place at CVPR, June 10-17 2025.

Official Call for Papers will be published very soon here: cv4mr.github.io

atm I'm still on tw mostly. it's hard to give up so many yrs of history plus highly curated feeds/lists for one idiot. I don't seem to see the bad posts ppl mention. will try post more here too. am a creature of habit though

the projection is adapted from "pepper's ghost" approach. bit of theatre to reflect the networked performance of the code based drawing & allows the 2.5D (webgl) to be shown as ~3D.

illusion, immersion, immateriality, spectres of the extinct species

opening is this sat 3-5pm - come along!

installed one of my "specture" works, "bilby shimmer" at the gallery for the PROCESS.ED group show at Articulate Project Space in Sydney

explores putting extinct bilbies onto the blockchain. they build new habitats & landscapes in the digital world. we can see their view via the bowl/projection

looking for an auto-followback setting. am way behind, oops

yes. if the machines could work towards finding solutions to pressing problems: climate change, medical research etc, this would be useful. instead, it's likely to end up another spam/advertising funnel. we don't fully understand consciousness, how will the machines

agree. I think AGI is a way off, even with the hype. hope so at least! not sure humanity/society is ready for it in the broader sense. no, haven't read Ned Block

tried a few 3d prints: larger 'wallabye' representing the 3 extinct species of wallabies in NSW + a plastisphere creature (would suit glass)

+participating in #genuary this year - a code based generative art drawing (almost) each day in January. posting them on tw & insta mainly + some on rodeo

sad to see the devastation caused by the winter fires in Los Angeles. hope ppl stay safe

love to hear @t3dy.bsky.social 's outlook from metaminds AI oracle

fun. nice to see a positive outlook!

thank you :)

the big day has arrived - Australian XR Festival awards tonight at State Library of NSW, Sydney & streamed for remote ppl. happy to share that my ‘plastisphere creatures’ work is a finalist in the CreativeAI category

Slop Infrastructures 1 & 2 "Maybe the Human Part of Human Connection is Overstated." 💡This week, I'm trying something new. Starting today, and ending on Tuesday, I'll be e-mailing smaller sections of a single piece, Slop Infra...

2024 was the year of AI Slop. So this week, I’m writing about what it is, and how it gets made. In part one, I define AI slop as part of an ideology of AI (“who does slop help?”) in part two, we look at its aesthetics — “how does slop mean?” mail.cyberneticforests.com/slop-infrast... #criticalai

you're welcome. glad they were useful for you :)

thank you!
