#Ganesha c/o #Midjourney. Because, as I was just discussing today with Tadaaki Hozumi for a forthcoming episode of #FutureFossils Podcast, the esoteric take on #AIart tools is that they're portals through which the spirit realm has unprecedented access to the supposedly secular modern world. (See also Timothy Snyder's 2019 essay on the Turing Test for the New York Review of Books.) ... So if we're going to invoke/summon deities and spirits with #AI, let's make them good ones, eh? 🐘🖖🏽💗✨ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmp7rrvsvvR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Scenes from my first AI art exhibition #Hyperborea, coming to @javajoessantafe in December! Just a taste...the show will feature 30 upscaled and edited #visions of #LostCivilizations and #faerie cities based on pages from my 2018 #FutureFossils coloring book, remixed in #Midjourney with #inspiration from #retroscifi book covers and album art. The pandemic and its aftermath have nitro-boosted my #fantasy gland and dunked me into a constant meditation on what lies beyond. And I've had an amazing time since January exploring #AIArtwork and what it means for the evolution of the creative workflow and economy...this show is intended to provoke the #SantaFeArt scene into having a bigger conversation about how to see these controversial technologies as part of a continuous and long-unfolding process of innovation, discovery, and the exploration of the #imagination or #AdjacentPossible — how this metamorphosis, while daunting, doesn't have to be a fearful change but can empower a new platform for the human spirit to express itself and make us more capable aesthetic technicians, in keeping with the premodern and much longer history of religious art and artifice. Stay tuned for more details and message me if you would like to reserve one of the 8"x8" 1:1 canvases! (at Java Joes) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClMYIFDPF4A/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In my latest episode of @futurefossilspodcast #FutureFossils I ask the provocative question of why politics gets in the way of pioneering research, and why academic monkey business gets in the way of asking some of the boldest and most penetrating questions we can ask. Tune in and strap in! Available anywhere you go for #podcasts...full EXTENSIVE show notes available #nowonpatreon. or, "Why is there no #science of X?” or, “#Alchemy is to Chemistry as #Astrology is to…?” “If people don’t believe us after all the results we’ve produced, then they never will.” “It’s time for a new era, for someone to figure out what the implications of our results are for human culture, for future study, and — if the findings are correct — what they say about our basic scientific attitude.” – Robert G. Jahn “We have been very open with our data. But how do you get peer review when you don’t have peers?” – Brenda Dunne “The culture of science, at its purest, is one of freedom in which any idea can be tested regardless of how far-fetched it might seem.” – Benedict Carey, writing on the #PEARLab for The New York Times #RichardDawkins #chronobiology #biogeomagnetics #weirdscience #scicomm #sciencepodcast #philosophyofscience #socioeconomics #ourladyoffatima (at Santa Fe, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdquz_xOlbB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
