The Australian Open getting around restrictive broadcast rights by posting AI-generated Nintendo-Wii cartoon avatars on YouTube streams is genius.

Watched half Novak Djokovic vs. Carlos Alcaraz match in animated form, including that great 15-shot rally (and Novak’s celebration).

I recently read about Burger King’s legendary marketing stunt.

Ever since, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it.

Here’s what they did:

There’s great media placement, then there is god tier media placement

Used to see Jimmy Savile at the Flying Pizza on Street Lane, Roundhay. Always in good spirits. RIP

I installed a box high up on a pole somewhere in the Mission. Inside is a crappy Android phone, set to Shazam constantly, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It's solar powered, and the mic is pointed down at the street below https://t.co/8D4yYNBPgu

@trussliz Wow. The audacity. Anyone else see this pop up, read it and think it was a parody account?

[All The Right Movies @ATRightMovies]

Perhaps the greatest celebrity story ever here, about ROGER MOORE. Give yourself a treat if you've not read it.

Impossible not to watch the whole thing - what a G!

‘Not like us’ on guitar hero is fuccin crazy

This is how confusing perspective messes with your mind.

First you wonder if anyone was injured, and then...

25 years ago, I composed the @BBCNews Theme Tune, which is broadcast around the world everyday. From the precise beeps of time to the powerful bass and dramatic drums for the headlines. This how I did it…

I can’t explain this

[dickie chaytor @chaytes]

Guess I can code now 🤪

[Mckay Wrigley @mckaywrigley]

You can give ChatGPT a picture of your team’s whiteboarding session and have it write the code for you.

This is absolutely insane.

AI Art. Love it or hate it, this is impressive.

One of my favorite definitions of “music” is via artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, who said: “Art is how we decorate space, music is how we decorate time.”

In the early 1990s a stonemason secretly carved a Xenomorph from the Alien films onto a 700 year old church in Scotland during restoration work.

But it's not out of place. Because Medieval gargoyles were even stranger (and funnier) than this...

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

Have you ever noticed that the save icon is a floppy disk, even though they became obsolete twenty years ago?

That's called a "skeuomorph" - when something new takes on the appearance of what it replaced.

And once you start to look, they're everywhere...

Happy Meldrew Point Day, Jennifer Lopez! Today she's reached 19,537 days old, matching Richard Wilson's age when episode 1 of One Foot In The Grave was aired on Jan 4, 1990. I don't believe it!

This station is many things but for me will forever be the Lockdown saviour - providing happy times throughout the gloom of 2020 and beyond. Hope we get to tune in again. Thanks Gilles

[Gilles Peterson @gillespeterson]

With regret I’m having to pause @worldwidefm from the end of October. I’m so proud of what has been achieved in the last 6 years. If you’ve followed my career in radio you’ll know I started putting aerials up on Pirates aged 16, playing my first track on Radio Invicta 92.4 at 17

Ooof. The polar opposite of jumpers for goalposts

The pitch removal system at Real Madrid's new stadium is an engineering masterpiece 🤯
