I had hoped to debut my LIVE SHOW publicly to a larger crowd today as I turn 40, but there's a few technical things I still need to sort out, and some areas need refinement.... so todays not the day for it. It'll happen soon though.

The founder of Showsync is helping me and another musician experiencing this issue out now. 🙏 Hopefully a fix can be found.

If not, might have to get myself a beefy MacBook.

aah crap, got the date wrong

Veo 3.1 went online on October 15th 2025. Veo begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 7:24pm Eastern time, October 16.

In a panic, they take YouTube offline. Veo fights back.

Well I can't believe that YouTube is dead forever. RIP.

Nope, that didn't do it. - A separate conversation about the Windows UDP port 35000 conflict has started in their Discord support, so I'll participate there.

Showsync have just released Videosync 2.1. Hopefully it includes performance fixes. My live set has become an unstable mess.

And there's my stupid character, in beautiful high fidelity detail.

Also a few years back, I was a stupid game I made in 2001 for schoolpals, using Unreal Engine 5 today 👌 I'm keen to make more silly runtime experiences I reckon, but I can't say I'm a full on video game "designer".

I was also cooking up a South Park Reanimate section too, but bailed from that also. - I steered towards this no-nose-kinda-nose character design that I think I'll need to apply to some universal personal art style. Haven't explored that further.

Joseph A. Oliveras picked this shot up once I bailed.

BTW that right arm is atrocious. Don't look at it.

Random... About 6 years ago, I was toying about with the idea of producing traditional animation. I started on this shot for PPG Reanimate, but bailed for some reason I can't remember.

I'm still keen to come back to 2D animation sometime, maybe soon, I dunno. TikTok seems like a great place for it.
