Today we relaunched TITLES. I recorded a short tutorial about how we're a little different than other wrapper apps (we work directly with artists to train models, and they get paid when you use them). Please give it a try and let me know what you think: titles.xyz

Black Sun Electro Static is featured in this month’s Labocine issue, themed “mathēmatiká”

in less than 18 hours I'm somehow seeing all 3 Rotterdam-based Eredivise teams play/
just a reminder about this. I know its still a month+ away but if you know you're going to sign up can I ask you sign up ASAP? Often I have few sign ups until days before the class starts and it makes it very chaotic and stressful for me :) It's just me running things (thats why its cheap!)
I have a new AI class starting in April! It might have some generative content, but it will largely focus on using found footage (or your own material) and using AI classifiers and algorithms to explore structuralist editing techniques. We'll use an app I've been building since December :)
I’ll be in Amsterdam March 20 and 21 talking about my ai film practice. On the 20th I’ll give a lecture about my work and on the 21st I’ll be running an accelerated Dadaist Filmmaking workshop. Both are free as long as you RSVP.
Lecture: t.co/2OG0ZdBw91
Workshop: luma.com/k6g1792r
if you're in Amsterdam (or nearby!) I'll be doing a free workshop with the same materials on Saturday, March 21. RSVP to come this week
More to come, but if you're interested I'm now taking signups. Class is capped at 20! checkout.square.site/merchant/HQP...

More like a very sharp knife tbh
Yeah but then you have scarification
It’ll get soft like knuckle tats but that’s why you go with bold lines (and I need to get some of the lines retouched—in the moment all you want is for it to be over)
Wow I haven’t told you all anything! I got a new tattoo in November. It still hurts sometimes
Sorry blueys, I forgot to tell you about my latest Valentine’s Day project. It’s recreating karaoke songs from karaoke clips from YouTube. I wish Bluesky didn’t suck at video uploads! artificial-images.com/project/love...
Still getting the hang of Z-Image Turbo training. It's a little more realistic than my liking, but it does create some beautiful images
this fucking sucks man. Rap legends die way too early, especially in Houston

Patreon backers, I just put up a custom-trained Z-Image Turbo LoRA for anyone paying $10/month or more. Gonna try to do one of these at least every month.

Considering doing a short (~5 weeks) course on Claude/Cloude Code for digital artists. What would you want to know?
I have my first film of 2026 up. It's a 12min video of random karaoke DVD clips, all singing middle C (C4). Its the first of a new set of tools I'm building to make video an actual musical instrument.
Bsky still sucks at video, but you can watch it on my Vimeo channel: vimeo.com/bustbright/m...
Prob gonna be in Amsterdam at the end of March for a lecture and workshop (more TK). While there, what other Dutch cities should I hit up? Best Dutch football game to experience?
I love when my "unique image finder" processes old films and basically just finds splices
Claude Code is all fun and games until you know the exact CSS property you want to change and it decided to use a stack of some shit called Tailwind
Yes! It’s such a weird “language” trying to use it to alter video edits and it’s funny the weird things I’m learning in the process
Such a wide array of quality levels to MIDI files. Who knew?

I'm officially Opus-pilled
