Lovely to finally see this – A worker-led, worker-oriented inquiry answering questions about how people are experiencing "AI" deployment today, in real workplaces in the UK. "Right to Refuse, Question, and Challenge" is lovely to see.

i'm still trying to think how i would answer "why take pictures of nothing" in a way a tesla owner would understand. "finding beauty in the mundane is a based epic meme", or maybe "taking a lot of pictures to hone my skills is sort of like farming reddit karma". i just don't know. it's baffling...

Wild to think that I ended up doing the Scottish Mammal series after brain storming ideas for a third pattern book. One of ideas evolved into something more. I've working on and off this art project for nearly a full year now with 20 finished designs with the Scottish Wildcat as the starting point.

"...Magic's Secret Lair sells fans' creativity back to us as exclusive objects of consumption. We are supposed to value the radical appropriation of Zeta's art, yet dutifully queue up to buy those images on officially-stamped cardboard randomized into speculative booster packs." Fucking incredible.

11 months of the year Edinburgh is a pretty good place to live. The fringe is a local festival of perseverance under conditions of infrastructural collapse and social disruption, to make us appreciate what we have and prepare for a difficult future.

Reporting on the R* firings has meant multiple trips to London, Edinburgh & Glasgow over the last several months in order to be on the ground as the story developed. It's been a different style of video for us, with more frequent updates, rather than one big doc right at the end of the process.

You see the steel industry provides "real jobs for real people" which is why it got a bail out, as opposed to universities which only hire stuffy academics that either just sit in offices and think or teach 1 hour lectures, and definitely no one else.

Back in October, Rockstar Games fired 34 employees for alleged gross misconduct. The severity of these firings could have spelled the end for a burgeoning union effort that was underway, but it didn't. In fact, the union is now *bigger* than it's ever been before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym4z...

In response to the request for voluntary recognition, mgmt can: 1) Say no 2) Wait out the 10 day timer 3) Say yes and enter negotiations with the workers Options 1 and 2 will look terrible and result in a recognition ballot the union can absolutely win. Option 3 will make everyone happy 😌

We began organising at Rockstar in 2019 and I’m proud to have been involved since the beginning. I’m even more proud of the workers who picked up the torch late last year and are now pushing for recognition.
