Three panel comic. Panel 1: baby monkeys in overalls jumping on a bed, having fun. Panel 2: one of the monkeys falls over the edge of the bed, reaching out as he falls. Panel 3: one of the other monkeys, now looking super buff and badass, grabs him by the arm to save him heroically. “Monkey Stronger Together.”

Mr Clippy asking you if you’d like help with some work and giving no option other than ‘no’ or ‘no!’

Recent addition to the studio wall:

Fuck the Artists

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

The kids’ll love it

WHAT HAVE YOU GOT IN HERE, BRICKS??!!

@rebeccakjones1.bsky.social Colossive Cartographies work remains my series fav. It connected with me so closely in that post lockdown. So definitely looking for this new one at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social
Suppose I'll have to look at @petermorey.bsky.social book as well - to avoid a domestic! 😆

😅

FYI @rebeccakjones1.bsky.social has kindly given me a space on her table to sell 1 THING @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social -I chose these fun adventure books ANIMAL SPIRITS over the soul-baring ENDSWELL to contrast both with Rebecca’s poignant slice-of-life work and the raucous (non dog related)CAT DISCO

FARAGE: Oop - plug time! PRESENTER: Ha ha 8 FARAGE: Yes it’s a 12-part BBC documentary called ‘In Search Of The Political Parties That Aren’t My One’. 9 [Show on the TV screen Farage presenting a documentary series titled In Search Of The Political Parties That Aren’t My One. He is wearing his farmer's getup and looking dreamily at the UK from hillsides, visiting pubs and chatting with the locals, etc] FARAGE: It’s a really emotional journey  10 FARAGE: with lots of dreamy footage of me looking relatable...  11 FARAGE: as I answer the question: *Am I the only option for Britain?* 12 [Cut back to studio] PRESENTER: I won’t push back on that FARAGE: Absolutely!

It’s sort of about my connection to place

- Great North Wood
- Whitgift Almshouses
- Stanley Arts @stanleyarts.bsky.social
- S Norwood Library
- Croydon skyline

- zoom out for an ‘art attack’ to see no.1 Croydon aka the 50p building aka Croydon Spaceport

What’s the time?

It’s @ohthatgoblinmarket.bsky.social time!

More Mural Practice! Skipped ahead to the largest of the three designs marked out…

Yes!

…based on these fun things I made at the ‘Kochalka Puppet Theatre’ workshop at @captioncomicfest.bsky.social in Aug- run by Richard Starzecki… it was super fun, all monkeys and robots were destroyed in the ensuing show/fight (feat Emily Brady).

Pics also show runoff sheets & frayed posca PC8K pens

Mural Practice! I made these three monkeys into a mini mural at my studio space in my recovery from a really nasty bit of Covid :/ … + have marked out two more spaces with two more designs in mind, getting incrementally bigger/more complex #muralpractice #threemonkeys
