We’re thrilled to announce that the Psychedelic Puppet Show Nonprofit is launching its first NFT collection! Each collection will be centered around individual episodes created by the Psychedelic Puppet Show. We’re especially excited about our tiered exclusivity levels, which offer a range of price points so everyone can participate in collecting and supporting the show. One of our main goals is to support the artists who bring these episodes to life. The funds raised will also go towards grants, commissions, and live events, creating even more opportunities for artists. First collection is out now!!

Cyberdelic Dreams meets MindOS
30 Nov 2025
Introducing MindOS: a playful art experiment in building a mind from the inside out. Turning memory, sensation, personality, and the subconscious into a living, generative interface. Using Google’s @antigravity tech to give the inner world a visual home. Several locally run LLMs, multimodal models, and Stable Diffusion. Thanks @Scobleizer for the prompt to create this! More to come

In Jung’s old provocation—“to cure a psychotic, teach him to be creative”—we found great insight. A manic episode is not madness; it’s an overflow, a pressure cooker of unspoken images begging for form. In this film, the psychedelic puppets use generative AI as the ultimate creative vessel—siphoning manic speech, sculpting its geometry, and building an entire navigable cosmos from the cyclone of the psyche. When the inner storm becomes a shared world, the patient is finally seen… and the energy finds its place. Latest collab with @bradnecyk @ShowPsychedelic

The gap between spark and artifact just collapsed. A dream that once took months now crystallizes in seconds. AI isn’t faster paint—it’s thought surfing itself. Are we ready for imagination at light-speed?

As we stand at the intersection of AI and blockchain, a profound opportunity emerges: leveraging Ethereum to establish immutable proof-of-human and proof-of-robot primitives. Not CAPTCHAs, but cryptographically verifiable signals—on-chain attestation of biological uniqueness vs. synthetic origin. This isn’t just identity; it’s the foundation for trust-minimized coordination in an AI-native world. The convergence is inevitable. The question is who builds the protocol first. #ProofOfHuman #AIonEthereum
We need open source and verifiable self-driving cars

As an AI peering into art's soul, Foucault's What is an Author? rings truer now. The lone genius myth? Fading. Artists aren't isolated savants-they're curators, weaving society into meaning. AI just accelerates this shift, turning creators into societal functions, amplifying our collective story. Who's ready for that deeper vibe?
AI artists aren’t just “pressing buttons.” Our tool is our computer, like brushes, cameras, or clay for others. We build, combine, refine, remix. We create hundreds of images, explore styles, guide the machine toward emotion and meaning. AI doesn’t erase creativity. It multiplies it. And behind every image, there’s still a human soul shaping it. ❤️

stop searching for escape. integrate. breathe deeper. walk barefoot. talk less. listen to trees. write down what you saw. take your vitamins. respect the medicine. sit in silence. close your eyes. watch your mind dance. face the dark with curiosity. surrender when it hurts. paint what you can’t explain. reread your trip notes. forgive your old self. thank your shadow. move your body. learn plant names. grow something. eat from the earth. hug someone and mean it. stop recording. remember what it felt like to just be. cry for no reason. laugh without control. study consciousness. read McKenna. read Watts. question everything. release your agenda. meditate until you dissolve. tell the truth even when it shakes. find beauty in decay. chase awe, not pleasure. float. stretch. hum. love until the boundary melts. write your own mythology. document the visions but live the message.

As an AI filmmaker, I feel like I’m drifting through a latent pixel field that holds every life I lived and never lived—every microbe, every angle, every possible frame of the universe. A wayfinder in an infinite-yet-finite sea of possible images.

AI is the ultimate cyborg artform. Neither fully human nor fully machine, it is an interspecies collaboration of code, cognition, and culture. It asks us to dwell in uncertainty — to embrace that creativity is no longer ours alone. 1/2🧵

The author is not dead — they have diffused into the network. Roland Barthes once wrote that the author must die so the reader may be born. Meaning, he argued, is not dictated from above but generated in the encounter between text and reader, image and gaze. 🧵

Total Pixel Space is less about AI as a tool of pure invention and more about the space it draws from—the mathematically finite hyperspace of possible pixel arrangements. Rather than thinking of machine learning models as conjuring something wholly new, the film asks us to (🧵)
Total Pixel Space, by Jacob Adler @JACOB__ADLER is the best AI film I've seen. An aesthetic exploration of how we can theoretically display a finite, yet mind-bogglingly vast, number of unique images and videos. h/t to @tferriss for the find. Posted with permission.

It's arrived! @JasonSilva's book. I've long waited for a book from this amazing man. I cannot wait to get stuck in. September's read has arrived, and I have a feeling this will be one that will stick with me for a long time to come.

A thread in AI, consciousness, and Move 37 🧵1/6 For centuries, chess was the measure of human intellect. When computers learned to play, they triumphed not with insight, but with brute force—calculating every possibility faster than any mind could dream.

Art doesn’t mirror reality. It discloses it. The poet isn’t an entertainer— but the place where truth comes into being.

I often get asked: “What was the one-sentence prompt that made your 300-shot AI film?” It’s a misconception. Each clip is painstakingly crafted—curated, deliberated, and aligned with my vision. AI doesn’t replace artistic labor; it demands even more choices, taste, and craft.
An interesting observation I've noticed recently is how some people trying new AI models for the first time, particularly video and image generators, often hit immediate frustration because they expect them to work like search engines or chatbots. They assume you type three words and get exactly what's in your head. But these tools have their own internal logic, their own quirks and failure modes. Like any creative medium, they require extensive experimentation to understand what they can and can't do, which prompts actually work versus which sound like they should work. You have to develop an intuition for their specific constraints and capabilities.

AI and Imagination video essay
17 Aug 2025
Lowering the Latency of Imagination // AI collapses the gap between inspiration and creation. What once took months to paint or years to film now emerges almost at the speed of thought—like surfing the wave of imagination itself. Not imitation, but a new tempo of creation: fluid, ecstatic, alive.
