🟪 Herbert's 100th birthday in 2027 🟪
ASTROPOETICON 2027: the Foundation's project
Celebrating the visionary with members of the community of generative art

ASTROPOETICON—a 16-poem cycle by Herbert—comes to life as a series of stunning immersive worlds, built around Eric Ash’s spoken-word performance. Philosophically profound, the poems explore the cosmic laws of physics, the evolutionary paths that spark life, and the ultimate question: Are we alone and can we get into communication with these alien civilizations?
The foundation is proud to announce that all visual pieces now finished. We are now moving into post-production. This phase focuses on developing an overall immersive 5.1 audio landscape for planetariums, expanding on the original sound design.

Stay tuned for updates on our 2027 performance schedule!

Was going through some past articles of mine, and came across this screenshot. Been feeling a bit lost with everything these days, so that's a really good reminder from @JoshuaDavis and wblut

[wattsy △ @wattsyart]

The Kohi Virtual Machine (KVM) renders new works with new capabilities, but @kohiart's legacy catalog by me, @eepmon and @JoshuaDavis are fully preserved. All three collections copy-pasted to the compiler on https://t.co/USBe89TocN.

@golan Ya know... I'm working on a rust + ruffle museum installation app... That can play several flash files at once + load images, video and text. All running your layout via json. It's working just not public yet. I'm old and artisanal these days. Hope youre well.
