Waifus × Mechs × Kaiju.

I took a detour from my usual work to build this and made it for the @dreamina_ai Annecy International Animation Film Festival.

Project: TIDEWALL is a virtual K-pop group: four idols who, in another life, pilot 25-meter mechs against the things that rise from the sea. Same girls. Two lives that never explain each other.

Everything is "0riginal" and AI-made, the songs, the characters, the world, the battles. Built with @dreamina_ai 's support with the CPP Program. :)

It's first window into a universe, a band with real members, a story, songs, and a whole mythology I'm just starting to open up. I'd love to collaborate with someone to build this .

Idols by day. Pilots in another life. Secrets to hide.

This started off as just a portfolio piece, but now I want to build a world around it!

The Green Season, Episode 1: Seedbed An animated slice-of-life series about one spring on a duck rice farm in California's Sacramento Valley, and the girl who came up the river road.

ABOUT THE EPISODE Princeton, California, years after the Collapse. A few hundred people still live on the river around Lopes Family Farms, because when the machines stopped, the ducks didn't. Kit is nineteen and knows everything about rice and nothing about anything else. Then Moss, the river trader, comes up the road with salt, wire, the mail, and a girl from the city who calls herself Just Wren. She can't farm. She says she learned trucks. Kit's mother gives him one job: teach her the work.

WHAT EPISODE 1 SHOWS ABOUT GROWING RICE The seedbed: rice starts in a shed, not a field. Seed is soaked, sown close in trays of finely sieved soil, and kept warm for about two weeks until the seedlings stand a hand tall with three leaves. Flooding: paddies are leveled within a finger's width so water sits evenly, then river water is let in through ditches and gates. The brooder: 400 ducklings wait in the straw for their jobs in the field. Transplanting: lines of a dozen people move backward through the mud, planting a few stems at a time along pegged strings. Press, step. Press, step.

WHAT IS AIGAMO DUCK RICE FARMING? Aigamo (合鴨) farming, or aigamo nōhō, is a Japanese method of growing rice with ducks in place of herbicides and pesticides. Aigamo are a cross between wild mallards and domestic ducks. Once the transplanted rice takes root, ducklings are released into the flooded paddies, where they: eat weeds before the weeds crowd the rice eat insects that damage the crop fertilize the field with their droppings stir the water with their paddling, which clouds it, slows weed growth, and pushes the young rice to root deeper and stand stronger When the grain begins to head, the ducks come out so they don't eat the harvest. One field produces two foods, rice and duck. Japanese farmer Takao Furuno spent decades refining this method and sharing it freely, and his book The Power of Duck helped carry it around the world. In the show, this is the method that kept the valley fed when everything else fell over.

THE ENDING: 合鴨の教え · THE TEACHINGS OF THE GREEN SEASON Each episode ends with a new teaching about duck rice, written as a lesson about life.

@VinnysCorner1 LeBron is the worse on this list

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@Rasseru @betrBron Playing basic defense today makes you a great defender lol

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@iso_hoopps Giannis isn’t that good. He’s just extremely athletic

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@karatademada They will all use ai eventually too. You’re an early adopter and will deal with the growing pains for awhile and it will pay off 😛🫡

@itsMichaelJ His ball handling is so bad. Most street ballers have better fundamental skills

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@rxtsec @Cover3_mx That he bandwagoned on to win lol

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@Ironmute @DeanTTraining What’s the point of lifting heavy if you’re trying to game it ?

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@BenColmatevf @Framer_X Agree. It’s a huge difference

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@Framer_X Sd one still looks way better because of the micro movements . H3 looks pretty stiff

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@InfamousBloodia @MugenLord This is true . I’m like this so I can understand. Ppl like this do so much before it’s proven

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@Shane00 Not to mention they were are more skilled as well by a big margin

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@Shane00 these guys were bigger than Giannis bro.

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@Millan63745189 @Shane00 I left them out because they're all smaller than Giannis lol. They're all badass and can manhandle Giannis I think, but I was mainly doing size comparison. These guys were all taller and heavier than Giannis. Barkley was a tiny center. I left out Olajuwon becuase he's finesse

[Andy @AndyHTu]

@us_connie No. Its perfection.

[Andy @AndyHTu]

I've spent too much time at the desk, playing with AI.
