Brand New Tuba Music

Here are some thumbnails I made for the TMBG Live at Kings Theatre video, so that YouTube could run A/B tests to see what was the best clickbait

YouTube’s results said that they were all completely amazing and that I’m very clever and smart and good-looking.

Not Art #30: Unacceptable, chapter zero(?!)

A new issue for an old year, about old issues from older years. Don’t tell anyone, but the issue title font is wrong.

Next year, I’d like to start sending out a new serial that I’ve been dwelling on for a long time, and try to get over the idea that I’m bothering my subscribers by sending them the thing they signed up for.

Have the Newest Year Ever!

As Arthur C Clarke once said, sufficiently advanced manual labor is indistinguishable from AI. Or, something. Anyway the bosses asked me to use some generative AI, whip up a few dozen VFX shots. I gave it a try.

In the first round, it told me that I can’t use image editing features on anything that involves a human with a face. Okay, so let’s cover up the human and try again. Maybe we’ll get something we can matte into the original shot.

I mean, the mic stand is gone.

Pretty sure my job is secure for a little while longer.

Have the newest year ever!

And let’s leave last year far behind.
