Oneirataxia / Hyperreality


Metamodernism time! The literary kind, not the self-defeating financial kind.

 Fantasy and reality. Non-reflective of the person creating such a fetish, yet the time, it comes out.

Within our own realms of design where our own perception, we are entering a realm where art is hostile to entertaining the perceived, yet through the repulsion becomes the paradoxical attraction, for attraction cannot be the positive value being made, so right today, that's with the negative, with its scepticism brings an compulsion.

36 essay on a self-referential movie. Funny Games. Which is an attempt to bring opposition of meaning into the mix of our own perceptions, along with ending within a pretentious ending that cannot be called slop. Anybody who's read scriptwriting 101 will be getting the cues right now of who's being signalled, with this being the in-joke.

We are stuck within our own entertainment. On how YouTube and xwitter being on the downside of ad money and not subscription services.

Slippery slopes, or not.

Irony and sincerity, such a distinction. Irony poisoned is sincerity masquerading as irony.

Anti-art and anti-business/Questionable cases



 Previously on Couch Gregor's journalistic notes on Gen AI.

Clickbait! Clickbait and Grifts all around like we are in the trenches! It's time to hide and try to make sense of it.



This attempts to clear some of the fog, despite certain talking points being made.
This one is alright, even if it attempts to separate predictive AI for social media and including generative AI. It claims most of predictive AI on social media hit prediction is bunk and that alot of the scams there are where the snake oil is.

Yet is goes into why it uses text to speech long with other certain evolving tech for clarity.

3:10 hour of the most charitable understanding, along with certain questionable cases that are misrepresenting, I'm not acting as a proxy for Alex Avile.



This is the most accurate take, despite the postmodernism (which I don't like. Foucalt, grr ) Now, it does read between the lines on that Case while happening to not simplify something. It's simply not that simple with such cases like that. Oh, some ideas are not contingent on the measurement of currency.

It's becoming more apparent that with our desires, that even with the efficiency argument and the environmental concerns beginning to surface.

These are the ideas that may get me called out for being anti-business or anti-art, simple because I find a case that supports Adobe AI models and Disney's Ai Models, an indefensible inconsistency. It's why I've tried to listen to others, including the sceptics of the anti-ai. Why would you consider yourself a defender of a class with that backing?

Regardless of things, I try not to be too technological determinist about it, there will be capital and another day of work to do.

Do yourself a favour and don't read the comments, even if I did. Merely noting a Marchell Duchamp taking from Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven.

There are multiple sides to this AI debate and conflict, so I'm going to continue my essay archaeology.

Not into the postmodernism, can be ignored yet his copyright alliance ip-loving maximalism which seeks to increase displacement and artist erasure.

I'm not relating to the justifications of it all.

Yet that's not the intention of advertising, it's to repeat like a frequency till your "accountant tells you they're bored with it." Now it's more of hiding heads in the sands, and with the complexities unresolved.

Creative or 'creative' Pundits have been disappointing, to self-defeating cases, and towards to ineffective noise filters that don't work on current models, no glaze or bulls***. 

I'm going to have to leave this for more coherent words, not another quietism and heads in the sand. With the Luddites that have lost, we have to see if we can at least remain technically literate.

"watching artists advocate for stricter copyright law is insane, to me. you are wrong!

these kinds of people hijacked the whole deal. it sucks. its going to turn into "being anti-copyright law is pro-AI and anti-worker" lol"

I don't think these class interests have oversight to be representive, I'd like more critical thinking with our own ideas.

I have to agree with that sentiment, people have got there funds despite archaic laws, even though I know there are lawyers out there that are good people. We have to come to terms of it. I don't think that's it's defeatist, rather than reassessing my terms of assessment.

I may be called anti-art and anti-business, as things have been previously done. Yet, reading between the lines is something I have to do here. I don't want to live in a complete permission culture, there are always going to be conflicts.

If the confusion of permission and remix is still forever, then nothing will be accomplished.

Technically literate, the best kind. Can't wait for part 2 by Alex Avile.

(Post edit Avile proceeded to post ) Slopification has already happened when he pointed at Defen village. )

Here's my Comment.

"Thanks for this, my thoughts... Remember Elsa-Gate? There was already slop within the gaps to quote 'feed the algorithm/market', such a system of romantic individual creativity could be made, yet as such an extent of the sloppers, the masses don't care and YouTube. Almost like being in our own niche places, where the internet was designed without the intention of advertisers, the commodity fetishism of it all, there's still community to build. So is the idea of Neil Postman's amusing ourselves to death when it comes to politics, journalism, education and religion and made to be liked, aaah Dough Ruskoff, within his documentary to be liked. There was already hacknification and hierarchal relationships with the creation of our crafts. I do it myself when it came to it my own sex work. It's like everything is being illuminated, like you said. The fabric of our serviceability being natural in of itself, not so in our systems. 🛋💭"

It's not like I'm defending Elsa gate or that, it's merely how others don't pay attention to their out mechanisations provided with the financial incentives.

Such as it I don't think the Defen Village as the same as such as the other industry complex, we are seeing it more now.

(Oh, I have no intention of debating this maximalist positioning, regardless, supporting Disney/adobe copyright with their AI models is not within their interest, and not within my purview of debate. There is a growing preprosterism. The less the art enterprise looks like the free market enterprise separation from crunch culture and sigma grind sets the better. I guess some)

Let's leave these cases. Permission culture out of the aesthetics of ideas, concepts and style.

Passion Exploitation


They are writing about passion exploitation

Word, even though they may not change our thinking, there are malicious 'teachers' out there who'd think they can out-train sleep.

Beware of groups that become MLMs, Moneys into false promises, and swindles into a realm of creative industry.

Industry...

I could rant about it more and more, only to avenge by doing the more important thing, which is to learn to not work for exploiters.

Such a shame that our own manners of internal motivators can be taught bad patterns, It's only wise to not work for cruelty.
12 min video in regard to passion exploitation

Pain as a generator of creativity, I don't think it's possible. Oh, it's a better as engagement bait and a race-to-the-bottom advice advertising.

"oh that's a bunny rabbit"


When was my in my teens, Nintendo dominated my life, Pokémon stadium dominates my life.

Over the family life of the Nintendo sixty-four, there it was, right with the attempt where I was such a silly youth, and there were doing serious events regarding one of their aunts. I was switched back and forth between my mini console, my own team with my Pikachu. Popular culture does not need defending due to their popularity, only my love-hate relationship was forming, from passive to active, there was my aunt after a 20-minute play session with my brother.

"That's a cute bunny rabbit."

Funny, how despite all my Pokémonese that there was a woman there, and it was meant to be a regret because it was one of the last words that I was going to hear before I heard news of her passing.

Darn, well I'm sorry. Guess I'm a kid, is that forgivable, is our culture today, however commodified forgivable? Incurious, as I was, was busy winning a gym match of spectacle that I could not comprehend the outside world. Did she even care at that moment?

Was unaware of my naïveté as she was unaware of her trivia.

Rest well.

Monopsomy of sexual appeal


Thing with working in the industry. Something about the pale king was a woman who ranted about being a sex object

Or monopsony, a single seller with many buyers.

Single selling of sex to many thirsty suitors.

Objectification and power scaling, status roles and informal primacy to our culture, it does not need to be embraced. Yet that's what perception of our hierarchy and other alternatives in regard to learning are own meaning of status in our culture.

(That's not counting on objectification vices such as murder, violation of boundaries trafficking, autonomous things that are to be found in the legal institution. Sexual objectification has been discussed )

That's what they talk about when it comes to audience capture. (Editorial, politics and stuff by Gerwinder.)

Rantsona


 It will have to be Kyro.

He's not a man who cares about expressions and shouting, along with writing constructive editorials, and spending 20 hours within a circular debate.

A debate of rationalism and hijacked postmodernism, rejected meaning locking into categories of phantasms. Of bad actors serving secrets and nebulous pretensions.

What a silly, ranty warrior.

Such catharsis is physical, and the hedonic treadmill that is never satisfying, such a paradox of satisfaction will be beyond his imagination and he may be info a seductive trap, low traction response videos.

Then he'll move onto vlogging into the with, thinking of how Asheal will hit on him.

Then that post will unpredictable go viral with the tea spill community.

Fictional Savior Complex


Documentaries and non-fiction has become fiction, demarcation becoming blurry, that's a problem with no stated genre bending, shifting and braiding. All a happening of conflating entertainment with the more serious pursuits.

Is it me, yet the "It's more complicated than that, art is supposed to save us?" Or is organised direct action suppose to be made?

That's an anarchist response.

I can't go to direct action due to my disability, so I teach and editorialise instead. Being an honest hack within entertainment, because like Harlen said, the show must go on.

What with the paradox of fiction, subsists within our culture, still persists. Art aren't fully joined by the hip of entertainment product, yet when they do.

May 24, 2025

Political Quietism


Is this political hub-bub of quietism activism of entertainment, merely commercial ad-creep I wonder.

Thinking to this show vs Telling

Including the scenes, which I learned from the story grid.

why not both?  Thinking of the trove of writers on substack again.

 "Secondly, even if you are looking to “show” it’s important to remember that virtually all fiction involves both “showing” and “telling.” If some over-zealous writing teacher claims you should never tell, ignore them. You need both exposition and scene, at least in most works. The way to apply this rule is to show the most important information for your themes, story, and characters. Show us the pivotal scenes, the dramatic peaks, and the crucial plot twists. Tell us the information we might need to know, but isn’t as dramatic or thematically important. Part of this is a question of emphasis, signalling to the reader what is important, but another part is time management. Put simply: telling is typically quicker than showing. It takes less words to sum up a conversation or scene than to summarizing it. So understanding when to tell and show is a crucial aspect of controlling the pacing of any story."

Oh, well, are people afraid to make ideology and political commentary with their fiction? Well, prosumerism in the west always exist, i shan't use the non-authority of the prosumer public, they don't know.

Beware those who make a scene of prescriptive quietism.

I don't know if what I write is too controversial, or should I be controversial for the right reason? Contrarian with meaning or premeditation.


Posting this again for good fortune.

Generication;Genericide


Such a manner bridging the literary academics with the genre commercials, into the whole arena, then into elimination and recategorization.

According to brand manager, Genericide is when a good/service reaches it's indirect badging value. Or what, according to the marketer's commodification of the monopsony. Single buyer, many sellers selling that generality.

Oh, how do such a specific that it's brought to our minds when it's the individual. That's made.

That's a digression, though.

Speaking of genre and it's theories, it ain't fixed categorisation. Lincoln has written about it.

So despite the emergent genres of entertainment and art happening within the financial undercurrents, we can make it a choice to pick one that's serves our own conceptions and workflows. Oh, how money giggles in the background.

Discipline day for a screenwriter

Couch Gregor Tries to rationalise his schedule.

The commitment 

The repeated robustness of the mise en place and mise en scène of structural containers with its actors. The placement to take heed.

Then the flow of all the conventions acknowledges from the honing, into a point so it can be followed. Deduced from the previous.

This ain't work ethic, this Is a manner of not getting lost in the social showboating and attempt to do a piece of work that one is proud with and protect mise en place at all costs, with minimal interruption.

Since the adaption of words to screen and page are the constraint of infinite, a concept that can't be counted. The method of seeing a puzzle to be sorted is to structure, along with that.

Either Finish or Abandon the desired projects, there is all to do today. Be it for internal wants and desires or external entertainment and commodification.

Then, isolate and work the production/creativity rate* or whichever is generative from the inertia.

*don't have to measure or meticulous about it, can be treated like calorie tracking, please note that tracking can make it stressful, start n finish. Hobbyist or Business owner.

Nettiquette for the gregorious averse


  • Rules change and shift, Yet there are places with netiquette. With advertising, there are always shifting the guardrails unless they are enforced. So thanks Ad-creep.




  • Regarding Politics, people don't like direct political/ideological commentary, unless the medium attempts to avant-garde a complete subtraction of community and society, there are going to be questions of governance and authority. It's merely a protest of entertainment/bargain seekers of don't be controversial. Be it with flame wars and quietism employed, I hope such an unannounced decorum does not stop you from writing editorials and essays.

    In regard to didactic stuff of non-fiction, satires, Allegorical and morality plays, that's another matter. Oh, and editorial cartooning that comes with the direct political and ideological messaging on the genre tin.

    As for organisation, I'll leave that for another post.

  • Don't spam, Don't commodify everything like charging air or not, nobody want's to be pitched on micro. Commodify/Commune, best treat subjects intrinsically first, not a leverage for a deal. Don't conflate commercial speech with free speech.

    Only when it's anticipated, personal and relevent.

  • Micro-blogging, espeicially on the main site should not be considered a marketing medium; an opportunity, pick your battles with what platform to express or advertise too. There are only so many hours in the day to keep the work hours within. Commune and only offer services like a truted attorney with a plantif.
  • Question everything, even the age of sceptism, yet certain waves of sceptism of questioning everything can be questioned too.

Disagreement with S**h


I hope to attempt to be constructive. I've learned what a naturalistic, contradictory character is since he writes so much of his mind, along with that. This ain't a call to harass, I don't think he's going to read this.

How does a critic, one who's worrying to keep the tradition of the Stoic 'guides of life' I've been compliment, yet now, I hope to bring amelioration to him by noting stuff that he could work on. This is what he wants, I take it.

Nobody's perfect.

  • Funding Rachel Hollis next book with Author Equity, or such as a concept of trying to rehabilitate others.
  • Venture/risk capital, This is a more of a systemic nitpick than anything.
  • Claude and certain derisive intelligence embracements, (I'll ask a volunteer editor for beta readers.)
  • General mixture of (Merely make good videos) and his thousand of rewordings of commodity fetishism.

  • Despite his attempts of not advocating for advertising, he's bought advertising from facebook. Direct responders have pointed this out. Well, Altmba had bought advertising. When he comes from the advertising as a tax for a unremarkable product, he kind of hides his own short term advertising. Yet he does not since all are complex now with everything recorded in this age. All contradictions and consistency.

    He says anticipated, relevant and personal advertising messages are what distinguishes from spam, which he rants about. He tends to clarify, yet lapses in, yet his inconsistency may be the point without much he tries to get out of his inertia.

  • General well, electorlism frameworks. ( I won't get into that any further. )

  • (post edit) General exoneration of the free market as some kind of objective force, in an attempt to be separate to it (reading more economical books)

    Also, Tribalism ain't a thing to analytical term any more, a small observational which he merely should call informal groups.

    Regardless, thanks for providing a literary snapshot in modern enterprise of the Stoic life, being in business, with the free stuff It's enough to take in (with salt). I don't like rags-to-riches stories, though. By golly, does the west love its inspiration, P***.

    Oh well, thanks for being a cheerleader, guy of corporation.

Hopkins dream


A bunch of clay figures, the mimics with mouths swirling a going into a big array of cogs. Then with that image, a big plastic cover hides it, following that morphing into a feline face.

“Is this what you wanted?”

Then the image is gone, himself with an argument with a girl over the a box of sweets, and shrieking over a ledge, a ledge twenty feet down filled with oddity. As the frustration of which tub of marshmallow spread apart of the
sweets is worth dividing.

“No! Give it back.”

“I don't, stop tugging me. Ahhhh!”

Then to the moment she falls behind, there is no sight, or did he blank it out given the circumstances. Fear comes down his insulted face, do he does not.

Then another memory, followed by an overloaded plate of cheeses, crackers, and nut spread. “Yeesh, a bit excessive.”

Then a congratulatory voice came, from the culture, from the family, from his grandad. From his eating disorder.

“Good job, that attitude will save the industry. Now come and do us a good duty with what you've inherited. Extra rations for the thinking.”

Then it all jumbled with his eyes drooping upward from his double bed, half naked. He had to write this dream down again, seeing how if it's going to mean anything. He had to see if this was the position he wanted.

on matt and trays "therefore and buts"



Despite being tiring, wrong satirists, there is only one thing I like, at a craftmanship of archplotal/miniplotal storytelling. Their body has plenty of wrong takes, and videoagames covers that. 3 hours of all its crude position, (crude is an understatement, You may even disagree with certain points, I'm tackling them as narrative energy. )

They are beings affected at a time with first responders, It's going to be a case by case that I can't summarise with a synopsis.

They know how to add progressive complications, making stuff compelling. Within fiction, the bedrock of compulsion.

How do you lead in towards a fascination complication that's rising (Shōnen) or Decline? (Horror) You compel with contradictions from the ordinary path! Good job teaching others how to dramatise that so many have done, there or other contradictory words (Don't, a hint.)

Well, Dramatisation is something any dramatist and playwright can teach. Merely another moment for a complicated, libertarian character, with many of the essayist doing a lot.

Man disagreements and agreements, Thanks for using contrast conjunctions. Don't they share all the conflicts that entertainers have, ah.

May 17, 2025

they fought


The three camps.

Human (Humanus), Beast (Beastius) and Golem (Mimicus).

The races taxonomised, fought and cooperated. The punitive dark ages wars and the constant strife within the runic circle. They all had a go.

Then there was a silence after the dangerous, yet worthy events of the peace. With the streaming houses meant to help bring stable peace and sanctity within the new, slowly developing urban lifestyles of the growing towns.

The all had a ball, they all rested on their laurels,
The Covenant, The Bricken Coalition, and The Casters.

They made there ways, there made conflicts and they
made their tensions.

All such a matter of mind and the infliction of body with the
desire of dominion and affiliation interlocking into a 
new tapestry.

HyperDirect


Directly measured things are going to matter to those who seize it,

Not in an opportunistic way, yet generous. Inorganic reaching to the point of connecting on with a way that can open a door, a call to light is the call to action.

Beyond the race to the bottom, and the commodification and the attack of our attention to anything, there's the moment of stimuli that makes us a whole new being that we are aware and restructure for our own ends. Then the attention stimuli is rendered anew.

Finally, even with such commodification of indirection and the commodification of our direction, there's still our decisions that we make all day and into a new passage. Knowing and understanding- the control of the mise en place is the first step.

Even when the funds, and the time runs out.

Such transactions, that are not commodified, are intrinsic.

What are we to do when our attention and time are not commodified?

What's worser than a hack...


Somebody who does not create via formula, somebody who is unaware of his mechanizations.

Staunchly formulaic and derivative is one pleasant thing, another is completely giving up on the short-termism of the specification.

All copywriting is parody, or caricature


Commodified and slop by definition and profession?! Say it ain't so.  The reason I study slop is I can clearly see the antithesis. The attempt to make a work of art and art work continues. What's Copywriting for? Cleaning the dishes? Oh well, own it.

All this was to attempt to make something out of a factory shop of furniture, making inspiration come from weird places.

With Song, that's it.

All propaganda is hackneyed, it has to be on the nose with the theme, simple, direct. Not clever for its own sake. So it's direct and in-your-face by design, to the point of it causing agreement or disagreement.

I don't know where this mediocractic line, you don't, yet I'm paranoid.

Avant Garde Artist to Hackneyed graphic design. Interactions of commodities and vision.

External/Internal motivators


Internal could be self-actualization. The pursuit of self-determination theory, or that of the principle. 

External is exposure/monetization. Could be measured, could be validation. Or the schedule and mise en place of what to do.

Structuralisation means that it's both, interconnect synetically within a stream of continuous time of interweaving of flows.

So now, with self-determination theory, which of these motivators are doing a disservice?

Even with non-self, it's the theories we make of our conceptual minds of our bodys and brains that are another story of our humanity.

NSFW is the new SFW

C'mon Couch Gregor, keep the doodles up.

Not safe for work? Really? Is that how it's going to be with this alien concept of genrification that's been normalized. Now everything is sorted into little and little genre boxes and I can't even wander within the literary plains to others things now that all of it is all meant to be considered into automata.

Yet here's the rub, what's not safe now for work. Normally they'd contain misogyny, queer content, other norms of abuse that's meant not of office environment.

Yet again, with hackneyed patterns. There's a repetition of ways that feel like, staunch formulas, is it the not safe the safety and the safety the not safe?

Oh, that's me being paradoxical again, Even at that points, to understand creativity with all this to be actually creativity, there has to be professional risk that's really not safe for work. Otherwise, the NSFW SFW becomes hack work, which is the only thing of mechanical damnation. Oh, that's what I see with the every predictable SEO and those who make patterns of it, it's easy to predict.

I guess there's money, as much as a cover band artist gets his paycheck for bringing recycled eyed. Guess with all these consumerists physicality is to see it all.

Well, pick a kink of the infinite power scaling kink rack, then put back again.

Unsocial Work hours Anti-social

Abstract expressionism again, guess the language of this will have to give clarity regardless of my more commercial work.

 Such are the terms and definitions that let us work, from the capital of our growth and shrinkage, to our own ideas where to throw less or more at a project. With each its rightsizing of the appropriate lengths.

Then there's the approximation of all the unsocial that will have to be predicted, stuff that one does not go to twitch to be elected, with it not being a poll, it's art. No

Yet all this anti-social stuff has been accounted via law within all that way, it's made to bring stuff, and why, That having this privilege to define the conditions is important.

I'll pop into a twitch stream and see if I get a connection again, and then leave, because it's all meant for interruption advertising. So that it's alienating once again, within the lines of the sand that I can't relate to.

Dip in and dip out, I suppose.

Crosswordism of epistemology: Susan Haack


Notes! 

Crosswordism, a conciliatory epistemological framework of viewing the world for out philosophy, of complete true justified belief. Yet here we are, some of here essays are good, some of them are not. Regarding Neurlanaysis and the overwriting of very within the language.

I gravitate towards Stephan Jay Gould and the mismeasure of man, along with Delusions of Gender as authority sources of Cordelia fine in regard to that. (I'll have to reread it.)

I wanna leave phrenology to the academics, I'm an artist/entertainer first.

Nobody's perfect with my wabi-sabism, So I take a bit from there, a bit from that. Now, such a visualisation of 3-dimensional epistemology is a way of reasons and clues being evidentiary experiences. Wow, she does like paradoxes, as do I within my fiction.

Well, that's ambiguity, that's a way to approach an essay or a fictional work.

Later she critiques the further industrialisation with academia and that's reflected or the orderisation and packaging of student into products that's a simple way with SAT tests, that later is the golden lining that brings with topics. Ad agencies lines of thinking that Seth Godin that has thought, or that he has to seek.

Attorneys being representation of advocacy rather than scientist being that of the pursuit of knowledge. Along with other distinctions, if you ignore thing, she provides a good framework for paradoxes and a 3-dimensional way of seeing discourse.

Trippy, man. Things for the philosophy are to be questioned, nothing is safe, from copyright and curious questions, a lot of questions, and then there's answers.

I'd recommend despite the odd bits.

Leave the term content along 🛋💥


Second Scribble attempt
Content can mean subject with specificity, yet the term itself as being become a generic dismissal. Not respecting the genre or the value-shifts within the statutory fictions provided within entertainment.

( dramatisation, not reflective. Point is to practice writing)

It's merely an amoral analytical term, not a virtue/vice!! The commercialization and industrialisation of the capitalists are to blame! Of course Patrick and Martin Scorsese are right with their literary pretensions of genre and things turning into vendor-mindsets with advertising agency ideology seeping in, they should be reaching us.

Keep it analytical of content/format, and not within a shrugging of publishing responsibility.

Well, that's not what these Platforms do with no curation, even though as 'react' genre attempts to do with it. Public relations for unaccountable practises.

Leave it to the west to associate amoral constructs with sacred/profanity. Guess what will happen with today.

I'm a cartoonist, writer and illustrator, content creator is a write-off dismissal. But hey, we are within a post-commodification and post-entertainment, so it's the best way to understand seeing these constraints.

Being disabled I can't engage and direct action, so I do this instead. Keep it in the academia, and not the ad-agencys of sloppifiers.

Bill Gates definition versus Martha McLuhan definition.

Kill you darlings/Abandoning them


Will be leaving sh***** as things happen, it's product of audience ain't worth it, even the most cynical of advertisers who wanted to increase their range of influence and brand image. Along with sales numbers.

Not connecting with that medium of info, and into another is part of the salesman trade, along with it taking the notes from the direct action notebook.

Commercial taking notes from the political handbook.

So that's why they abandon there darlings, with there puritan-oppourtunism spectrum being not complete, yet not fitting with the opportunism spectrum.

Microblogging was designed for cross-links anyhow, with no search engine optimisation being like a magical romantic movie.

So the internet shifts.

The success of the esteem contract

Abstract expressionism, again. Got this term from Oxford Academia, I'm a smarty little couch. 👓🛋

Literature illuminate new concepts for what it's like. The success of the esteem where it's a success despite institutional rejection critical literary success, and then, there's the-

The success de scandal where is today's sonic the hedgehog. How history repeats itself, is that shock value or somewhere discovery lies. Even when advertising can rationalise its opportunism with any guardrails, there's always an entire expose industry complex waiting to slurp it up. Well, such is the public exictement and then notoriety/infamy. Race to the bottom?

Then there's the esteem, The naïveté of such a Success of de esteem, especially with the permission of the big publishers and studios.

Which as Independents, we don't need such a permission.

What a romantic fantasy of being picked up by the commercial publisher and getting adapted! What a dream! What a fantasy? What a naïveté. Well, maybe they'll move onto naiveism with that, I don't know what will happen to it and everything can be made into inspiration porn. That's what preposterism happens to be with its ad creep.

All stuck within the Discovery Channel of our own perceived dreams circulating. Regardless of these goals, it could be meant to be literary or commercial success, things change.

Wallaces ultimate pleasure machine Infinite jest



David Foster Wallace, most amusing show thought
experiment really brings into the mediums as metaphor.
Ethical questions in regard to our mediums.

Nothing new,
these polemics have been done with Neil Postman's
musing ourselves to death.

Aaaaaaaash, the logos orgy of each line intersecting with a ding. This is literature, cointelpro that direction, another serialised shots of tennis player embarrassments, an essay on empathy, identification and cultivated sympathy. Then it pings and you're in a relationship drama romance, and it flitters between many directions genres till you're flat on your butt.

Ding!

Why did I buy this? Well, the literary troll within me demanding so complex of a story of Stream of conciousness perspectivism that hurts. NO, I won't be looking up the Wikipedia summary of this literary achievement, yet today I will go through the novelists other works of art, and see what I can make of that.

Hmm, The Pale king. Our status Ante of our fiction.

Theo: Childism??


"Snotty brat, don't talk blasphemy about your elders."

"This childist!" Said the second kid

 "Humph, They are calling it childism?" He grumbled in the thoughts of his taxes.

Theo snorted his toothy grin as a child was chewing the nougat bar back to school, the kid had his sugery bites as he let him talk crud about it. The kids feet itched, going backward as the Theo kept talking to himself.

"Ha, they don't know what I do in entertainment, what a silly dumb kid, what will they think next? Antism? Fartism? Toffeeism when I bite into it, what the b-OOOOOOOFH"

Is was that time when the kid had hit him in the money shot, with the mortification that Theo has collapsed while the other kids ran away, unamused with all the antics.

That was it, he could not comprehend the new ideas in his silly dad brain, nor that he could.

Folk/academic horse sense Etymological simple/sophisticated


Another outer inner Claude Hopkins Scientific Advertising, which determined the markingtese of salesman and their hacks for surplus accumulation.

How it comes, some merely want to cut to the chase. (Fundraising) while others want a more romantic treatment for the more literary types. Yet, people know that if they are treating this medium as a money-making mechanism (microblogging and direct messaging especially) the risk of burning trust becomes apparent.

Yet all of us seek to keep their budgets with our creative projects.

Make it so that whenever to simple it down, and not dumb it down. All concern and curiosity of the prospect with the specifics flirted.

Bells and whistle debate club


 A lot of politics on entertainment platforms have reached a standstill, obsession with debate is really the pinnacle of amusing ourselves to death. With the O'Reilly factor being the part where winning and semantics or placed over, with the flourish of the shouting over having a reconciliatory discussion.

No cooperation, no friendly competition, nothing, bells, and whistles. Why? Because it's better at pulling an audience. Yet better does not equate to good.

Entertainment and art is fiction. The same is happening with legal fictions, finances, education, journalism and all other fields, there's always a convincing argument to make it not edutainment. I say that as an edutainmentier.

Part of the mediocre series that delivered on its kickstarter, It was tool time's video on how everything still continuing. It's why that with journalism and literary ways that you can do




30 min editorial, 5 min on the Ken Ham, where ideology is made to be sold like advertising. Then the puffery tempts with the entertainment product made online. Cussy as we can write.

I'm not sure with if the ludology is made to serve the game of power scaling that has overtaken-the discourse. Where the performance of showmanship today is why I prefer to call myself an entertainer.

That's the problem of dealing with entertainment platforms 🥁

share/struggle


“Immediately uninterested” The guy from Idea channel. Mike Rugnetta. In response to a new indie startup telling him to share cat photos. Oh dear, that's where the monopoly/monopsony. 

He has a provocative idea, what if sharing is actually struggling? With contradictions. All these posters who can't have the effort because it doesn't scale.


Only share with intention, not mindlessly with value-free neutral platforms deciding to not curate. As new social media alternatives show up, there's only going to be so much time t help with other audiences, everybody can only hold so much.

Guess times jump and we must go back to a website, owning and scribbling our words.

Back to a weebsiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite 🛋👓☀☀☀

Theo, the w*****olgist


P*******
, he puts survival sex workers to shame. He's bankrupted the entire sex industry, and the Viagra market!

Why, within sexual service, does he do a disservice to all of us with such embarrassment of shame to our own manners. There was a a case for the rigt, there's a case where he's in the industry.

Industry i.e. the willingness to work hard, and with that, he's work hard alright.

Worked hard bringing his own grave.

Why can't he corrupt with class?

(post edit couch Gregor, i've censor'd P for comedic effect. Unfortunately when it comes to slurs, one will have to find good writing in order to use slurs. I do believe all insults have their place within the halls of writing, yet at this moment that I'll have to think and decide if it's appropriate. I allow something similar to Harlen Ellison when it comes to good taste. e2=0 )

Fickle'n Fleeting, Deshowmantize


Stuff writing has taught, that audiences that chase the latest mass market trend are not going to step off the carousal. Writing with the limited showmanship of literature can be a humbling experience, some say it's harder to write a game than it is to program it.

All part of the process rather than the results that appear fresh of the social media, which everything is not sacred there from the vulgarisations of the internet. The amount it takes to verbalise thoughts with sucking others with jingling keys respects other literacy, which I hope to increase and illuminate, not level up. Yet shine a light.

A bit of an enlightenment and not a metric based metric, I know, we are talking soft skills here, stuff that's hard to measure. Where ideas and the enrolment matter and conceptual abstraction helps make this a testing ground.

Not like going viral and monetizing was an option today, despite other companies capitalizing off it. Well, you give what you take with those under the .com things.

Even copywriters, and certain commercial novelists, how do you deal with mass ignorance? Nobody want's to read with attention and time commoditized into content, and at this point. It's merely our keyboards verbalising our thoughts.

Elitist prudes


Filthy elitist fine art.
Philistine of befuddlement and corruption
They sell a piece of scribbles for literary snoots?
Even the word 'art' is tainted, the artifice is embarrassed for us.
The amount of thing should be nobody wants to look and see us
Silly academic overwriting sillies
don't desire the public
don't desire affection
don't desire performance grandeur

Childism/Adultism


What they should do?

This 1:40 essay got me thinking.



So, education and edifcation has been industrialised beyond our things, beyond intentional design of actual benefit, can our children be put to blame with how these systems are forming to our own ways. Adultism telling other to grow up, even in the event of there children's entertainment, or now an adult novelist as gone of the deep end, or well, F*****

Childish, and adultism is all constructs of properties to the engine of non-fictional ways, so that our taxonomy.

centaur and reverse centaur


Cory Doctorow has sparked this one.

Are we leading the machines with creativity/novelisation, or are we leading to the background noise of being led by the hackneyed machinations? That's what it is, hackneyed service for service sakes machinations. 

Machinations serving, or are we serving them? Needs or profit.

Creatives and craftsman will need to confront this as dirative intelligence continues to normalise. Some will embraces, others will leave.

Vibe Coding.


Is this where the verficationism is getting us? Vague gesturing of our actions? Now programmers are seeing the problem of vibe coding for their own games and craft, where this aesthetic science is made with the intermingling happen.

Seeing AI infiltrate from the programmer's side , 17 min podcast.

Vibes are not experiences, or feelings or intuitions. Content for content sake. So self-important it's cynicism that it can't be taken seriously. Yet here are the points where commercial coding and normal functional coding is where it will mix, and the ways the creative mixing will happen is to be taken out.

(Of course Seth has written about it.)

Repositery Of Dynasour


Dynasour said some good stuff. Fore people who have problems or not.

Painting from reference is good advice, but great advice is painting from memory. Making your reference be from your visual memory as opposed to something you are observing. It’s not just a technique for experimental work.

>On Bad Art advice, (He must refer to the comic/animation industry, himself being a painter)

Most advice can be useful at certain stages. Most techniques can benefit at least some artists if used intelligently. But:

- using masks and fills instead of organic brush marks 
- stressing perfect "lineart" opposed to organic contour and drawing through 
-layer separations
-emphasis on efficiency turns to industry practices vs art and risk 
-are you learning the language of art or the language of entertainment

The answer in painting is never blend
have it until you are done with the painting. If you need to blend anything then do it just a little

best art advice

-Learn to fail
-value > color. Colors can be anything
-a still image can have movement. Color can move.
-style is the mistakes you leave in
-painting appearances doesn’t need anatomical construction
-painting and reality are two separate things. A painter has to keep it that way
-think of painting as capturing effects of light instead of constructing a figure or object. An image is two dimensional 
-defeat perfectionism
-limit yourself, don’t limit inspiration 
-sometimes a painting needs to sit around and get funky 
-kill your darlings
-don’t do all the work, make your viewer work some of it out 
-ambiguousness can be more effective than a narrative 
-leave process in 
-(digital) don’t zoom in. zoom out
-don’t blend. If you have to, don’t blend until the very end, and very sparingly. An image should work w/o it

👉something cool you can do to shift your drawing away from line dependency is turning the leading edge of the contour into the shadow 👈

(On commercial work/graphic design)

If you think that a lot of "large follower count nsfw artists" are talentless hacks, I hate to inform you about the art world at large. Get good at being a hack! I'm shoveling the s***!

learn to be a hack, it'll save your life!

(( Being a hack does no invalidate art ))

they need a literary editor x2?


" Oh Darth Marenghi, you're so right! " Darth Marhenghis Editor Roz, Incarcet.

No they don't, speaking as somebody in literature. Even though, gatekeeping and curating could apply here.

Some people need editors, some people don't they could be stuck within circularity and pigeonhole, yet it's a cosy pigeonhole, filled with calming clichés and stereotypes that reflect reassurances on the psych. Other than that, These hedonic treadmills can only take an amount of time required, and I would not have time for anything else.

Even when I tip my own toes into hypersexual themes, then it's going to be it's own cycle.

Yet this woosher with the times going round, when reasons of circles, then all the hackneyed reasons tend to justify itself, seeing self-justification of the history before, is a skill.

It's a wild west, so of course without guardrails there's going to be indetermination of unpredictable randomness. So, The infinite tasks here are going to be a problem.

A song that reappears from my old gaming days.

Fair use, creative comments, or merely fanartism. Welp, it exists. He tries to make the villains into context with other standards, (Unlike how the current Space Jam.) I hope the context and subject form anew. How will remix culture of the cover artist along with the professionals risk.

A collage, Of other matter is made into another vision, a vision of homage of another realm, a realm of recalling of a guy who wants to be there. To see if he can be there for a little there, into a dreamy selection of another way.

Ludology of the internet : Algorithmic Complacency


 

38 min

Hyperreality has been developed with, adding to the age of scepticism.

From the deliberately misinformed, ignorance. Agnotology at it again of people don't know through the illiteracy of the tech, that they are being manipulated, of the random robots making rules. Scrambling in and contextualising new deflations into an interactions nobody asked for.

Is this what Judith Butler calls a phantasm?

Idiosyncratic points: For the personal few


 The cliquish, too bigger, or so that's what the writing of the paradox of growth says, of reduction and of retraction. Coterie as it is said and critiqued.

Though the smaller the person within the message of the user to another, supposedly, the more it will be sent. Or so is the mental framework.

Well, I write for you, personally editing and making it as go for mental clarity, It's not going to be lost on discord, twitch or any of those sharecropping platforms, it's going to be made here, for you readers.

Almost towards a thousand, Into the cushy depths I go.

( Idiosyncratic points are apparently afforded to artists by those toe-dippers, a concept that happens to go today.)

Into owning the marketingese definitions, the squealing Typology.

Typology/taxonomy is something to consider for... urgh, marketing.

All the Casua Sui, or it's a fiction that's like that. Any aesthetic enterprise or ensemble.

Brand is typological, defined by nothing contingent by metrics or epistemology, it's intuitive. Indirect.

Direct advertisement is dependent on measurement and metrics. It's all generalising and stuff, estimates that are not accurate.

This is all left to the producers demands of a product first, unfortunately that will have to remain as a legal fiction. It's what commercial models and copywriters do, they have to deliver a product. They have to be hacks. Functionalism is there existence. The delivery of specifcations, unlike the matter.

Nobody talks with the markingtese of brand, and they don't speak of measurements. Function commercially with the commercial taken out of cease to function. Their inauthenticity is what makes the function.

Ads and advertising, ads serve that function of turn and towards with the matter, to re-turn, it's the point of direct functionalism that means.

This is all the thought'n ideology of capital, so that's how it is with Cartesian work ethics.

Sincerity and authenticity. Romantic type authenticity



One of the etymological definitions of authenticity is to murder, which is a curious interpretation. How words change. So many kinds, it leads you to mean your validation of opinion or idea, This is a type that leads into another one, the one of poverty and isolation with the flowers of the other kind. The Oxford definition is of something of a response to the enlightenment. Well, It could have epistemological merit, or a hacked exchange of monopsony

How it's a matter of self, with it being an illusion or not. Self that something in regard to pride of a body of work that's a matter of showmanship or not.

Trilling views it as a matter of conversation, towards an idea of pushing into a co-operative. Romanticism itself is an idea that's old, and not iconoclasm today. Since the idea of many a romanticism and now it's covered within the marketingese of brand and copywriting. Thanks Industrial Revolution.

Trilling continues with the liberal imagination, then continues to see if fiction can be political ( It is, it's by degree's of directness and warrant. )

I'll see if I can get to the liberal imagination, free away! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
