wow this trailer goes hard! yet a sizeable portion of the modern gaming audience would still imagine such games would radically improve if only the blood in the bath was raytraced. missing the entire point so badly one's brain is made of a_i prompts. #worsegraphics #ps2 #retrogaming #lofi #aesthetic

Caught here in a heartbeat, the darkness shining, the salt-tide in my nostrils, the sigh of waves in my ear. Baroque flights of clouds above ships in the offing, their pinpricks of light tracing the boundary, blinking like stars fallen from grace.

consider a #gamedev form free of end products: more a consciousness-stream of artistic r&d that evolves over time. an #enoesque 'ambient gamedev' which explores shared spaces - expresses through community principles, aesthetics, jams, radically open source concepts, files, inter-linking #scene

Dating to the early fourteenth century during the late Kamakura period (1185–1333), Japan, this sacred image represents Esoteric Buddhism’s (Mikkyō) vision of the Bodhisattva of the Wish-Fulfilling Jewel and the Wheel of the Law.

Seated in a pose of contemplative ease (mahārājalīlāsana), this early fourteenth-century wooden sculpture of Nyoirin Kannon—the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara in the form of Chintamanichakra—inclines its head gently to rest a right hand against its cheek, absorbed in profound meditation over the salvation of all sentient beings. The six-armed deity sits with the right knee raised and the sole of the foot pressed inward, its fluid, asymmetrical posture balancing supreme celestial authority with intimate, earthly accessibility. Luminous patches of gold leaf (haku) cling to the rounded contours of the torso, face, and tall, braided topknot, softening into the dark, burnished patina of the underlying lacquered cypress (hinoki). One right hand holds the wish-fulfilling jewel (nyoi-hōju) at its chest, while upper arms reach out to hold the wheel of the Law (hōrin) and stabilize the body against the earth. Intricate, microscopic geometric lace rendered in cut gold leaf (kirikane) glimmers along the hems of the flowing garments. The sculpture projects an intensely serene sensory atmosphere: the cool, porcelain-like touch of century-aged wood and smoothed lacquer, the faint, lingering scent of incense embedded in cypress grain, the soft glow of gilded surfaces in low light, and the profound, unbroken silence radiating from downcast, crystal-inlaid eyes.

The creation of such an icon exemplifies the supreme summit of Japanese Buddhist sculpture (busshi) and the spirit of monozukuri (artisanal mastery and sacred craft). Influenced by the realistic innovations of the Kamakura-period Kei school, the statue employs the joined-block wood technique (yosegi-zukuri), which allowed sculptors to hollow out the interior to prevent warping and insert realistic crystal eyes (gyokugan) from within the head.

not sure culture's even fully grasped postmodernism yet, bill. anything 'more post' seems redundant (it's very postmodern and chic to gild the hyperreal lily ;-) #baudrillard #spectacle #videodrome

the #philosophical problem with saying "i just can't believe they'd be so evil as to do X": * you haven't been paying attention / aren't directly involved * there's no limit to evil & stupidity * why compare forms of evil? * they just continue doing bad things repeated disbelief prevents action

technosolutionism as a dark farce. capitalist cultures will do literally anything - twist into absurd existential pretzels (eg. copyright their own faces??) to *not* deal with t.a.p the actual problem - ie. billionaire techbro p3d0n4zis. why not 'avoid' genaislop by copyrighting your own faeces! ffs

Best known for his atmospheric paintings of urban and coastal moonlit landscapes, this image by Leeds born John Atkinson Grimshaw is rather different. ‘Autumn Regrets’ was painted in 1882. The painting is in the collection of Shipley Art Gallery, Gateshead.
