Considering doing a short (~5 weeks) course on Claude/Cloude Code for digital artists. What would you want to know?

Middle C (12min, 2026) A bang average, middle of the road video. A decomposed film of karaoke clips, all singing C4 according to the CREPE AI model.

I have my first film of 2026 up. It's a 12min video of random karaoke DVD clips, all singing middle C (C4). Its the first of a new set of tools I'm building to make video an actual musical instrument.

Bsky still sucks at video, but you can watch it on my Vimeo channel: vimeo.com/bustbright/m...

Prob gonna be in Amsterdam at the end of March for a lecture and workshop (more TK). While there, what other Dutch cities should I hit up? Best Dutch football game to experience?

I love when my "unique image finder" processes old films and basically just finds splices

Claude Code is all fun and games until you know the exact CSS property you want to change and it decided to use a stack of some shit called Tailwind

Yes! It’s such a weird “language” trying to use it to alter video edits and it’s funny the weird things I’m learning in the process

Such a wide array of quality levels to MIDI files. Who knew?

New one for my friends at Grá

Trained a Flux Kontext model on my 16mm handmade frames. Input is now simple shapes, output will ~match my analog work.

Reposts appreciated. Spent much of the past month jamming on this massive project that I don’t have a lot of time for promotion 😅
