“I’ve never seen this outside of my own head before”
that’s @graycrawford magic for ya babyyyyyy

Don’t rear view drive. Take us somewhere new —
The controls exposed to you
want you to rear view drive —
literally maybe the only thing they let you do.

If you’re producing music with ai & machine learning —> lean all the way into it, expose the wires, make it obvious, show us the ugly parts, show us it-being-itself.
Make it glitch. Don’t just generate “glitch music”, or what it thinks is a glitch— show it Actually Glitching. Show it fucking up while trying not to fuck up. Push your process till it rips apart at the seams.
Don’t rear view drive. Take us somewhere new, drive like a crazy person. Throw away the desire to become the idols of the past. Kill the rock star. The DJ. The singer-songwriter.
This is hard. The controls exposed to you want you to rear view drive. It’s literally maybe the only thing it lets you do. It takes some genius to break it.
Do the hard thing. Start with beginner’s mind. Trust your instincts. Reset.
I'm excited to introduce Exposure
the RAW camera app I've always wanted :)
I adore the natural grain, and I've made the manual controls super direct
plus a sweet lensing shader for the focus loupe!

one day my personal library will have every YouTube video I’ve ever liked,
every Twitter like,
clusters of every cool shader post, autoplaying,
every article unrolled,
every book’s contents visible spread out, not just their spines
Finally made this branching reply UI for real 🌿
Conversation trees can grow so wide!
but UI normally logs them down into cheap + obscurant linear scrolls
Growing some UI for spatially navigating the branching structure of reply threads
Interested in directly swiping through parallel piles of nested replies
(instead of the current "💬3" that can hide entire massive branches)
Made on-device, pushing @createwithplay to its limits

Not only that, *we* are their bodies - we are the interface that allows their information patterns to move money, energy, water, etc. in the physical world.
Now that gen videos are providing Universal Basic Plausible Deniability,
is anyone working on phones baking some cowitness attestation / Proof-of-Copresence, into recorded videos?
co-signing each other when recording nearby, on an Airdrop-like network?
Something like C2PA but multidevice
Thus any video you see requires default agnosticism, and only those videos that demonstrate a hash shared across multiple videos can be deemed having happened

the bicycle is so efficient, but requires active peddling
whereas the condor’s efficiency isn’t from flapping, it’s from coupling to thermals/ external energy
which makes the Sailboat For The Mind the closest to sitting back, letting the model propel you
choose the fair wind.

in real-time, @graycrawford jams on stage and shows folks how he uses Neophon to "phase" through the latent space of audio.
TestFlight here

feed Neophon a gemini api key
there are some lovely pockets you can nurture,
really startlingly novel things if you look
have fun! I'm really happy with a lot of details in here
