Glad I did #genuary even if I only completed 10 prompts. Between that & learning TouchDesigner, I've began to recover some of my creative energyβ¨

I attended Savannah's workshop at Peckham Digital last month and it was hands down the most fun & accessible TouchDesigner workshop I've been to; it's finally given me the motivation to try and dig into this monster π

I used Sanity. I don't have other things to compare it to (other than our internal system) but seems to work quite well for my purposes.
Quietly rolling out a completely redone portfolio website.
Featuring: no longer having to use node 14 to get it to work! Also Svelte 5. And a CMS replacing a very large projects.json - I feel so mature now.

I wonder how that popped into my mind
You conjugate almost everything. In 'one beautiful woman', every word is feminine. Surnames always express something akin to belonging, a possessive. Usually ending in -ov/ev (masculine) and -ova/eva (feminine). So by giving Viktor a first name surname, JK essentially made it gender-neutral π«
It always struck me (and everyone else) as odd that J. K. Rowling chose to call the Bulgarian character of HP Viktor Krum. Let's dissect that a bit. These are two first names, a basically impossible combo in Bulgarian. We've got a gendered language, in fact a highly gendered one. 1/
I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community.
We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect?
Trans people are human beings β and they deserve to live in dignity like anyone else.
Black Mirror s7 ep1. Is this the world that we want?
Resources are up in the 'resources' section of the c3s website www.creativecodingcrafts.space and as always, the fun chats and more resources end up on Discord first discord.gg/HGH7uEpy99 ~
The quantum-ified music was one of my favourite parts. I donβt.. really.. understand music (unlike quantum), but it did sound magical.
We had a wonderfully weird Saturday last week at c3s @cccraftsspace.bsky.social , where two special guests from Quantum Village talked about quantum computing in the arts, from history to hands-on frameworks. πΎ
I wouldnβt even have imagined weβd host such an event when I first conceived of c3s π«°

In all the discourse on AI vs software eng, I keep seeing variations on the same: 'AI can't do scalable, secure code and that's what devs do'. I'd love to see more on the creativity of writing code, grounding it in being human and real-world experiences. I don't think devs are scalability machines.

Did we reach peak k-drama in 2022? I really want to watch something good again, like actually good. Not 'When the stars gossip', what was that even.. π΅
