Anyway as part of modern media literacy it's worth learning what the visual artifacts of an AI generated image, a negative-doctored/photoshopped image, a 3D rendering are, what a video timestretch/compress/reverse loop looks and sounds like. Deepfakes exist but so do shallow fakes

As long as we're being Thursday for things, I need tell you how the formation of @unwrittenearths.bsky.social has lit a fire within me.
I am so pumped to get the Swords Without Master fix-up out there, and a lot of that has to do with the talent and vision of my co-conspirators.

For those new to the comic, The Death of Baba Yaga is a gothic western re-imagining of Vasilisa the Beautiful.

Alright, okay, little preview announcement: I am setting up shop in the Danforth Arts Market this winter!
I can't believe how excited I am to have a local storefront location! Still lots more art and books to come, but if you've been looking to grab a playmap, Toronto friends, you are IN LUCK!

Why on EARTH would anyone suspend Goran?? @safety.bsky.app and @support.bsky.team get him back on here. What are you doing??
Hey @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team please unsuspend Goran immediately.
Goran is a great person, a great artist, and the whole anti-Palestine thing youre on is one of those "Ford funding Hitler" disasters you remember being shocked and dismayed by when you learned of in middle school.
