Hendrik Mans @hmans.dev · 26/09/2026Elizabeth Holmes is a convicted fraud and is rightfully in jail, but I can't help but notice all the extra misogyny whenever she is discussed anywhere.

Hendrik Mans @hmans.dev · 25/09/2026I found another dumb song of mine from 2018. This time I asked Opus 5.5 to build a little 3D engine with SDF splats (think "Dreams" from PS4) for the music video. No further instructions or steering (so some of the captions are a bit off.) 260
Hendrik Mans @hmans.dev · 25/09/2026I fed a song I made around a decade ago into Opus 5.5 and asked it to create a music video for it. I profoundly apologize for the song and probably also this video. 380

Hendrik Mans @hmans.dev · 25/09/2026Expectedly so, some external constraints immediately yielded even more impressive results. This is a follow-up prompt where I uploaded some (licensed, human-made :b) music and asked it to make a fitting video that's synced to the music's rhythm. Crazy! Also @chatto.run is really good :P 150
Hendrik Mans @hmans.dev · 25/09/2026Having a very strong "we're so cooked" moment. This is Opus 5.5 with just one prompt (ran within the @chatto.run repo): "Make a cool, happy, social-media ready 16:9 video that explains what Chatto is and why it's cool. Include sound effects and music (but not voiceover.)" 9908
