LOVED presenting at the "Wisdom in the Age of AI" conference @Calvin_Uni in Grand Rapids, MI! It's been so fun to continue developing my speaking in the midst of encouraging audiences to "fear not," and instead rise above the moment and create greater levels of art.

I want to thank EVERYONE who has been so encouraging about the release of my new book, "Fear Not, Creative." Just for fun, I wanted to share the template that I mocked up for the book early on (on the left) vs. the final cover (on the right). #fearnot #aiart

It was nice to see the @ChicagoBears win today. Pope Leo scored a nice victory this weekend too...

I'm so humbled and honored for all of your support. It's finally available! May this encourage anyone fearful of the stochastic parrots (do a quick search if this term is new to you). Sending love to you today.

I cannot wait to share this with you all! In the meantime, here's a hand-animated video sharing all the details! #FearNotCreative

I’ve decided to start collecting old Nintendo (NES) games. To start building the collection, I’m asking friends if you have any you’d like to sell/donate. If your old games are in a box in your attic and you’d like to move them on, hit me up?

I want ALL students to have the option of attending college, not only those who can afford it. Join me and make a gift to Bring Back the Bulldogs! #SUBigGive https://t.co/wdwZW1uV4r

I needed this one today. Love this indie music video that accompanies a tune I worked on (keys and mix) last month for my incredibly talented friend Austin Johnson. Keep your chin up high friends. https://t.co/ALa89wXI6x

Honored to play on a song that continues the fight that started 57 years ago today, protesting systemic injustice and those who stand in the doorway of progress. Proud of my buddy @ThomDaugherty https://t.co/5PJYv5qbIw

Very excited to announce this. Last year's work is coming to fruition! https://t.co/hc4uLCedF7

Yes, you are worthy of #art making. Dispense with the hierarchy in your head that silences your own #creative voice. It is your birthright to #create! The world will be healed when you take up your brush and shake your body and #sing your heart out. @MirabaiStarr

This whole thing reeks of payola for #music, #artists, #labels, and #Radio @Spotify

I can remember 1986 record stores still and am not bothered by this 1 bit:

It was two years ago today, Oct. 1, 2017, Las Vegas

People were doing what we do. Some were performing live music, others listening.

A single gunman opened fire on the crowd.

58 killed, 422 wounded, 429 injured in the panic.

I'm so proud of being the #producer and #engineer for this brand spanking new release from @MSandulloMusic! When do you hear a meaningful pop album that covers oligarchy, physical abuse, alcohol abuse, and fear of abandonment?! When working with this talented lady...

The dog is obviously magnificent but this is also top-notch mentoring.
1. Expressing faith in abilities.
2. Volunteering to remove structural obstacles.
3. Offering specific advice only after waiting for independent problem solving.
4. Praise and celebration.
