'The Ferry Man' - The Official 'Music Video' - Created By 'Dempsey & Mace'.
'The Ferry Man', an AI assisted animation and AI assisted music video was inspired by, Martin Dempsey's following words on his Facebook profile and his public Facebook profile photo...
'You know, I've been ill? Well, I got this great deal on a river barge cruise. The ferryman was only asking 2 pennies for the whole journey. I only had a 20 note on me, so I asked him to wait while I find change. He said there was no time for change now, and pocketed the 20.
So I'm a VIP-EX on the ship. The other passengers are a bit depressing and tend to moan. So far the scenery has been a bit drab, at least I don't remember anything that Styx in my mind. I wonder how long before we get there'.
With Martin Dempsey's full consent and permission, it gives me great pleasure to share with you our creative and artistic collaboration together.
Please like, share and subscribe if the fancy takes you. Thanks.

<I'd advise anyone with good common sense to always have a software/code cloud or platform back-up and 'Repository' for safe keeping of both your precious hard won code as well as the most importent aspect of your software project, your, 'Baseline' code file where it all began....
Of course, what do I know as a beginner coder and app developer?
Well, I know that if I put my apples in the apple basket, dish or on my apple plate, I'm pretty sure I'll still be able to find my delicious apples the next day and the next. However, if I put one apple in my pocket, one in my cupboard draw and one in my car and one in my hat...
Basically, YES, I've got lots of apples all over the place for me to eat, however, what about my 'seed' apple, you know, the one that all the other little apples grew from, where's my baseline 'apple' now? In short, software coding and programming makes a lot of files...
Where, is your seed apple, where is your baseline, where's your code!
Alternatively, play with code fate and roll your dice and hope the house doesn't break your code! Look, even the best and most beautiful and elegant software engineer, data scientist, coder and programmer knows that simply put, wrong keystrokes happen!
And then...
'DISASTER!'
In effect, if you make a total pigs ear of your coding, loose the lot or simply can't work out from you 500 main.py files where the hell you're baseline code is, then, you'll understand the realities of modern coding and programming. Or, do nothing and suffer...
Coding shit happens at 3am as well as 5pm and 9pm. When you lose your code, time stands still! Your code crash bug will not wait for you to be 'OK', it's goner eat and eat and eat up all your code in one bug BYTE! Well, it doesn't have to be that way ever again, never, ever...
With your code safely stored, pushed (backed-up) and (committed) to your software online cloud repository, at least you can return to a clean working 'baseline' file that isn't dirty from the code corruptions, crashes and multiple fixes and patches that you've needed to run.
Something, that all complex software programming and code development will naturally bring to your door as an app developer, is the hard cold reality that code corrupts, gets lost, formats or indents incorrectly in a cut and paste flurry of the moment, until, that day...
So, having experienced all of the above during my first steps into the world of sleepless nights, cold coffee and an endless spliff, burning away faster than your fingers can hit the keystroke's for that coding genius that's now flowing through you, YES, that's a BUZZ and spin!
So, setting up a Git in my IDE and creating a professional paid account on Git Hub was, quite frankly a no brainer for me, and, I'm so pleased now that I did this code protection protocol process. It's meant that my code and development of my current, 'Tarot Quest' app is SAFE!
Be a 'Smart Monkey', get yourself a Git Hub account for your code and software project or, play with your dice and spin your wheel!>

Would You Like To Be My 'Beta' Tester?
YES! I'll email you, I'd love to offer you my time for 'FREE'!
NO! Are you serious, work for free and get a 'FREE' app?
Absolutely Not! Why should I, you can't make me do it!
OK! If I must, I guess someone's got to 'beta' test your app!
YES, YES, YES, Oh God YES! I'll email you as well baby...
NO! I said NO! I hate your freeloading beta coding arse...
Voting ended onJan 29
*Please do email me if you'd like me to consider you as one of my select few 'beta' testers for my new app, 'Tarot Quest'. After the beta testing phase is over and prior to release, you'll get one of the 1st copies of the software as well as a special 'FREE' bonus bundle gift.
I need around 100 'beta' testers with a personal (not business) PC. Mac and Linux computer to test the 'Tarot Quest' - 'beta' app version locally on their personal desk top computer, laptop or tablet. You'd need around 5gb of disk space and a minimum of 4gb memory.
Currently, the app will not be a great experience on a smartphone until it's ported to that software format and structure. This is a PC/Mac/Linux/Tablet based app designed for desk top and laptops and tablets. Normally, it should work on legacy OS systems globally.

'The Puppeteer' - Director, Writer & Producer - Professor, Terry Martin ...
'The Puppeteer' is Professor, Terry Martin Mace's own unique and original, musical, AI assisted animated film, offered in homage to global puppeteer's everywhere who earn their living entertaining others, often for free, low wages or under terrible conditions for performing. Often, like The Professor, puppeteer's will apprentice with a 'Master Puppeteer' for many years, making and performing daily.
The Professor, was once also a professional shadow, marionette, giant puppet and film puppeteer and stop frame animator, long before, the advent and evolution of digital and AI technologies.
These new tools made puppetry and animation possible for anyone with some basic imagination and creativity, however, it takes years of practice to become a Master Puppeteer such as The Professor.
Professor, Terry Martin Mace wrote, performed and composed all of the original music and arrangement for 'The Puppeteer' based on his live recordings and guitar playing.
He remixed, edited and re-mastered his original audio recordings in SUNO Studio from his 'real' world musical reference tracks and audio. He later added drums, brass, strings, vocals and synth parts to make the music.
