Upcoming Events: September 2021
I’m speaking at two conferences in September: Futurecon & Ars Electronica. Both events are Solarpunk adjacent, looking forward to them!
The Prompt in Interactive Fiction and AI Art | 2132
Sketching out some ideas around the relation between the shared indistinguishable surface of interactive fiction games and using GAN’s to create art. What comes out when I put this thing in?
Mark’s IE6 Metaverse
I can’t belive Facebook showed off the wonders of VR by using a bland cartoon meeting room. Utterly ridiculous. The IE6 of the Metaverse.
10 Years With a Straight Razor | 2131
Since I have been old enough to do so, I’ve hidden my face behind a beard. Shaving with a straight razor requires the sacrifice of attention.
Solarpunk: A Narrative Strategy, a Memetic Engine | The Stoa
I went to The Stoa last night to talk about Solarpunk, Cultural Fracking, Narrative Strategy & Memetic Engines.
Summer Chalk 2021
I went back to the chalk for 5 nights for my dads Birthday this week. It was good.
Episode 150 (Sprint Review) | 2130
4 years, 150 Episodes, 12.5hrs of audio, 9 Video Episodes and 160,000+ words of script. ‘Number goes up’ gives you a nice feeling. But the more energy spent caring about stats, the more numbers became a source of personal validation.
This Speaks for Itself
I had mentally prepared a whole rant about how we’re all doomed, DOOMED.
Learning Mode | 2129
I’ve been learning new software this week. The Covid brain fog is lifting, and I am experiencing the phenomenon of unspent mental energy coming to the surface.
Talking Improv and Trust With Dr Alex Fradera | World Running
I spoke to Alex Fradera about World Running. We talk: Improv Theatre, Clowning, Rule Breaking, RPGs, Drama, ‘Unfolding’ vs ‘Change’ and more.
Yeah, That Badge I Wear
Further to yesterdays podcast on the “Friend to All Nations” tragedy. I’ve been shelpping a bag of assorted 1″ buttons from a gig 13 years ago.
