As is tradition I rebuilt the core of this set last night and it's muuuuuuch better now~ The Hunter's Moon set is complete ^-^ The energy and songs feel balanced across the entire set. The music and story elements compliment each other. It's lovely, dark, intense, and cathartic~ TONIGHT!!! ๐ŸŒ’๐ŸŒ“๐ŸŒ–๐ŸŒ•๐ŸŒ–๐ŸŒ—๐ŸŒ˜

As nights get longer, predators rely ever more on moonlight to stalk their prey. This Sunday, under the real and virtual moon, we evoke the metaphorical hunt -- what do we chase? and perhaps more importantly -- what are we running from? Live visuals, open dancer cage, DEER.9508

Dance for me if I can't be there. Dance to those of you that hesitate. Dance those of you that feel the music. Dance to those of you that love to entertain. Dance to those of you that love the community around you. Dance to those that want to make magic in the world! The cage calls for thee~

The login page for @vrchat.com has an AI modified background for until it loads a video background, instead of featuring creator's worlds like it used to. This platform is falling apart.

Translifeline TDOR: Blockout was fun and it was cool to basically make these sections off @softlysteph.bsky.social 's area sketch and how I can make winding forest walking paths to each location and keep people exploring. Also its based in my home beach in Oregon <3 #blocktober #gamedev

I'm very distrustful of how AI is being made -- but ethically, outside of the sin of data centers, I don't mind if it makes art more accessible. Create a new photoshop, generate the next brush, just don't make lines on the canvas. Make an new DAW, don't generate melodies.

To be clear, I don't know what's happening in VRchat but I sure hope they're fighting internally. I've heard stories of other workplaces where AI policy is stalled and run around in circles because of the executive team, even when the rest of staff is in alignment. However way, the silence is loud.

Shoutout the hardline anti-ai's in our life too. Y'all are like cultural preservers. Like people need reminders that they could write/draw/code before AI wrote for them. Hold the laziness accountable... People out here outsourcing their humanity.... Idk morning yap because i'm procrastinating <3.

How I see it, it's greed. The ghibli filter should've never been made, brazen non consensual stealing of IP. It can only make a melody or draw the anime girl because it stole from us. And it can't be unstolen. Frontier models could guardrail this!! Of course they won't, but..

It's greed, because executives have wet dreams of replacing all of us, including the creatives. Power seeking people get power, and they're afraid of losing it, afraid that any hard line stance will punish them in the future. It comes from a place of insecurity and I hate it.

Another beautiful night! So many of us watched in awe of everyone's creativity and the incredible music that moved us. There should be a recording to share later. I love being involved.
