My other theory is that the generation that grew up with high-speed chaotic game graphics and which had to learn to keep track of lots of tiny elements in parallel is simply too unchallenged by non-complex calm imagery.

I’m no longer calling it a day job, it’s a make-number-go-up cult

*regardless of market conditions

- Buy art you love
- From artists you want to see succeed
- For prices you can afford
- With the assumption you'll never be able to resell it
- And you will always be happy

Just a reminder — the top three grocery stores reported total net profits of $2.3 billion in 2022 so far. 

That’s $228 million more than the year before — $228 million that they took from YOU as a consumer. 

CEOs are using inflation to cover up their greed.

@WhitehotR @MoldyMagnet If you just put a prompt in the tool and take the output and call it art, I think it’s as close as taking a brush, dip it in paint and stroke a canvas and call it art.

And yet you have readymades.

The intention that led the individual to make the artwork is then central.

[Antoine Lafontaine @neverprint]

@WhitehotR @MoldyMagnet Ever heard of collages or sampling 🤔

Text to image models are just a new set of tools that opens up how art and artwork can be created.

Still requires judgment from the creator and also from the viewer.

Craindre les immigrants; mépriser les intellectuels; braquer Québec contre Montréal, pffffff… Elle est moche, votre campagne @francoislegault C’est pas comme ça qu’on vit au Québec #quebec2022 #polqc

We need to do away with the term “unskilled labor.” You hear people toss it around at everything from farm workers to servers to construction workers.

Here’s the deal: if labor is required it’s not unskilled.

If there’s anyone unskilled in the labor chain it’s executives.
