L'affaire perd un peu de son piquant quand on sait qu'elle tient son origine d'un auteur aussi mineur que Samuel Fitoussi. Woke fiction est un texte assez grossier qui frôle souvent la caricature et qui aurai sans doute gagné à être assisté par IA.

I built a little open source app to grow a shared collection of 8×8 pixel sprites. Draw, publish, like, remix, all CC0 🟨🟩🟥 baxel.art

A public gallery of pixel sprites, eight by eight. Draw one in the browser, publish it under its own address, and it joins a feed anyone can browse.

AI as a Fascist Artifact
(This is a bit of a merger of two talks I recently gave about fascism and AI. One was in German at the Cables Of Resistance conference, one in English at the Milton Wolf Seminar on Media and Diplomacy. I added some shots of the slides I used as a structure for the text which […]

🎲 We will be showing the last game I did with Joanna Wong at CAC La Traverse (Alfortville), on 22 of April. It looks at the Sainte-Soline protests and what happens to images once they start circulating beyond the event. Come take a look 👀

video games have been around since my grandparents were little and weirdo freaks now try to act like it’s impossible to make one without using the Polluting Thief Chatbot that didn’t exist before like five years ago and I will never understand that

What were we supposed to "enjoy" ? Burning a woman enjoying herself, or a silly perfume commercial ? The ambiguity smells a bit like pre game gate era.

Loved my december gaming. Age of Steam with the Sweden Recycling map was very exiting, I wish I could play AOS more often. Owner's Choice was also a great surprise. Railway Boom is not as unique as I hoped, but I still enjoyed it.

Il s'agit d'une tribune rédigée par les acteurs du secteur. Elle est assez courte, et parle surtout de comment organiser la recherche. Aucune mention n'est faite des impacts écologiques et sociaux.

The event where my game was playable, along with some food around the « undergroud » idea, is now over. It was very cool to see people try the demo. Now I have a ton of improvements to make in the game 🥹 #undergroundfood #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
