Get more from Another Human In The Loop on Patreon A Generative Toolkit

www.patreon.com/c/anotherhum.... Now I'm on Patreon. Finally made a video for that Patreon today. I'll be sharing Processing and GLSL shader code there as well as video assets, behind the scenes and other treats. I'd love for people that are interested in supporting me to check it out.

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop Processing Wobbulator Demo 1 mov

youtu.be/vjYnVngpLSI I've added GLSL shaders to my repertoire lately but I'm surprised how much I can accomplish without Shaders too. This is one Processing example inspired by Nam Jun Paik and Shuya Abe and their tool the Video Wobbulator. All controls are currently using a keyboard interface.

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop early video feedback with Processing

youtu.be/9flgIEoqgyU Using PGraphics to help create a directional #videofeedback effect with #processing. Eventually will move this to a shader. Plenty of room to grow. Incidentally, I am almost done posting some Fiverr gigs and by the end of the week I will start a Patreon. Keep your eyes peeled.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKBo... . he longest monologue I’ve done in ages. I’m still here and trying to figure out a thing or two. This is probably pertinent to #ai #machinelearning the #economy #consciousness #cybernetics #time and #media. #videoart #learning .

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop flowering 1 mov

youtu.be/5KGGR-cYC8U When I turn the blur off of yesterday's #processing program and adjust some parameters I get this lovely cheery effect. GLSL #Shaders are a big help in this, as was the assistance of #chatgpt #ai .

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop blend Cube 2

youtu.be/7D_HRytnfqM . Testing my blending glsl #Shader in 3D w/ simple color fills that cycle through the spectrum at adjustable rates. Lots of controls. Wish I could get the midi library to work again in #processing. I'll be offering my coding and design services on Fivver before the week is over.

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop more blending experiments.

youtu.be/LxR1ubsPMNM Continuing to refine #shaders for #processing with the help of #chatgpt. I’ll likely post the code to #github soon. I may try to post something every day again. If not video art experimentalism, maybe a quick rant. Re-committing to my daily #vlog intention.

We're living post-literately. It's all gleanings and tailings. It's boring, it's transitory, but a counter literate future is at hand. It's what's coming. The only thing language does now is separate us from the animals. We require something that separates us from ourselves.

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop recursive grid sketch #processing #contemporaryart

youtube.com/shorts/GIqD9... recursive grid sketch. I have a backlog of experiments with Processing to get back to. Feeling like my life is buffering, like I am on hold with a cosmic phone call. #processing #generativeart

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop irreality tunnel

youtu.be/An2OXw2I5v I have a huge archive of sound experiments that I have been sitting on. From now on I will be pairing my recent visual experiments with sound collages I've made previously. Or I will generate more if I feel so inclined. Let me know what you think.

part 2 : But I was a teacher of creative people for decades.
And the most important lesson wasn’t technical—it was permission. A permission I tried to give my students. A permission I now give to myself. A permission I give to you, dear reader: Don’t keep these thoughts to yourself.

Excerpt from WIP, part 1: I am not really sorry for disappointing you.
None of you. I cannot abandon myself forever just to keep you comfortable. I thought this was a conversation I was doomed to repeat alone, talking to myself, forever looping in my own head.

Slow and steady work in progress. Hoping to release by next week to replace my old site. New direction. New focus.

Do you mind terribly if I fail in front of you again and again and again?

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop multiLayer Resolution Experiments

youtu.be/eey5zK7n8rE Today's excerpt uses PGraphics to give me two layers: a "frozen" background and an active difference mask. I then make each of those layers either downsampled or "normal." This reads like gibberish.....but to me it's notes on magic. One day I think this will lead to something.

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop glass Distortion shader test

youtu.be/eIOxqpAu94c Another #shader in my toolkit for video effects with #processing. A kind of glass distortion. I bet I could spend a week or month refining it, but this proof of concept makes me happy.

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop divisions prototype

youtu.be/guch9FCx-8A An exploration in image cut-up and formal collage using #processing . Busy in the studio lately. lots of behind the scenes progress. #vlog #inprogress #collage #videoart #experimental #generative

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop collage experiment (Explode Or Implode and/or feedback)

youtu.be/Ns24aMZGaVs New #Processing project. Lots of behind the scenes progress. Now there's automated workflow to download images, remove their backgrounds and resize them. This brings in batches of 50 images at a time from a stockpile of @ 10,000 cutout images. #collage #videoart #experimental

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop DJ Prototype

youtube.com/shorts/WGYS3... Building off of the last collage program I was working on. May add sound later. An interactive sketch programmed with #processing. Still just the tip of an iceberg. #vlog #inprogress #collage #videoart #experimental #generative

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop preview of scrolling collage video

youtu.be/QHiMGFZ6cjw Very quick preview of a collage/motion graphic application I am working on with Processing. It's actually incredibly flexible. This is the tip of an iceberg. #processing #vlog #inprogress #collage #videoart #experimental

paintings painting | Are.na Research for some creative coding projects.

By the way, this past weekend I started an #are.na channel devoted to painting as part of my creative coding research. The title may seem redundant or silly, but it's inside humor riffing off of a famous documentary called Painters Painting. You can find it here: www.are.na/justin-linco...

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop Generative Painting still being iterated.

youtu.be/zkeS6mqmRas Just a view of what the little paintbrushes do as I spawn them. Made with #processing and some help from #chatgpt. I’m very interested in suggestions, feedback, and comments. #creativecoding #generativedesign #videoart #remix #programming

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop speedier Noise Text transformations.

youtu.be/eZ_VHJmE-nA Second of two brief sketches today.Text manipulation system with lots of variables. I may try to generate mutant fonts with this eventually. Lots of fun and I'll definitely explore in more depth eventually. Made with #processing and some help from #chatgpt.

YouTube video by Another Human in the Loop staggered grid transitions in Processing.

youtu.be/GxkJDPd4BnM First of two short sketches today. This one explores color, rotation, scaling and noise based selection of changes in motion graphics. Made with #processing and some help from #chatgpt.

“Torrenting from a corporate laptop doesn’t feel right”: Meta emails unsealed

A photo of Aaron Swartz (1986-2013) when he was 19.

Last month, Meta admitted to torrenting a controversial large dataset known as LibGen, which includes tens of millions of pirated books. But details around the torrenting were murky until yesterday, when Meta's unredacted emails were made public for the first time. The new evidence showed that Meta torrented "at least 81.7 terabytes of data across multiple shadow libraries through the site Anna’s Archive, including at least 35.7 terabytes of data from Z-Library and LibGen," the authors' court filing said. And "Meta also previously torrented 80.6 terabytes of data from LibGen."

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models.

In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

Quoting one of the people taken least seriously in Silicon Valley w/out context to his role as a cheerleading beta to the alphas is malpractice. “Refuse to pay the game by their rules” are called laws, which is too complex a concept for this minion. Please at least interview serious entrepreneurs.
