Seattle-based artist, engineer, and musician @keaton_sa's series "Place Memory" combines the neuroscience of grid cells with his memories of cities lived in: https://t.co/6QmAOZv2kn

Just discovered Fisk maps charting the Mississippi River meanders and I'm losing my mind over them, they're GORGEOUS.

Also "meander" can be a noun - who knew?

Very cool use of grid cell data to make digital art

[Keaton Armentrout @keaton_sa]

My neuro art made for @SciArtInitiativ is now live! I basically used grid cell firing patterns as a paintbrush to blend photos together from specific locations. 🧠🎨

Here’s still from the Boston work, more stills/videos at the link

I had my first artwork chosen for publication!!

A neuroscience inspired piece about location, memory, and hippocampal place cells is going to be in SciArt magazine from @SciArtInitiativ next month! 😁🧠

@collinofzion I’m so glad! This is definitely one I can’t listen to unless I’m ready to be in that specific headspace. When his voice comes back and cracks at the end 😭

For me, the striking thing about so many of these images of rioters in the Capitol is that what they're doing - all of them - is creating content for social media.

At least in their minds, the true seat of power is not actually in that building. It's online.

[Keaton Armentrout @keaton_sa]

@BrianTNichols Oh, interesting. It was an honest question, all I know is there were armored trucks protecting storefronts in Boston so I assumed they could scrape together a few more people to defend the capitol if they wanted to

twitter finally discovers a little bit of the agency it has within its own platform

So damn tired of living in a country that treats Black grief as a threat and white rage as a sacrament

Valuables is a great intro to NFTs and it’s been fun watching people evolve new use cases around the tweet ownership dynamic!

Someone even made an offer to buy that @Cent tweet about my article 👀 https://t.co/d6UF3bMvKU

[J3 @j3s7m4n]

@Cent @Valuables @keaton_sa "I made ..."
Oh you know how this goes

[Keaton Armentrout @keaton_sa]

I wrote an article about digital ownership and buying tweets with @Valuables, thank you @Cent for covering it! 🙏

[CENT @Cent]

Great article on @Valuables by @keaton_sa👏

It includes a deep meditation on digital ownership and covers some of the evolving use cases of minting tweets. https://t.co/JTiBhHmTP7
