Been working on this last night after I stopped being drunk with the Junk Magic guys:
Spooky New Romantics - by Twilite V2.XX
So here's my AI self which I programmed to make music, videos, and
write and recite poetry for me while I'm off haxxing intertubes and such. :)
I'm planning on using this or something like it in a music video so I'm working on
the effects, trying different things. The face animation was done with
a technique similar to Chris Cunningham's in the All Is Full Of Love
video with the Bjork robots- the "locked-in head" deal.
Also, been madly spinning webs of viral buzzery about the most relevant and
populated branches of the internets, setting up flow diversions and
siphoning off traffic here and there like city-grid electricity into
the patchwork particleboard of a favela trying to get off the ground.
Learning the lingos and socio-psychology of the many cyber subcultures,
the cultural parameters, the protocol, practicing becoming belonging
kind. The moronic gamer kid. The hardcore gamer. The "e-socialite"
(superclass of "Second Lifer"). All those wedding rings you
accidentally flushed down the toilet? They wound up in the sewers, on
every finger of these blingtards with fake tans like the waste of North
Korean nuclear experiments (which many may well be). The cybergreen.
Radiohead fans. Bjork fans (my favorite community actually, outside of
here and the NGB). Gondry fans. The Livejournal emo poet. The
"intelligent" ancient-hat geek, never to be caught without a Stephenson
in hand and a "300" parody video in clipboard, phasers set to
"boredom". The key, always, is obtaining the mark of approval from the
tribal leader of the forum, and/or a positive first response. Once that
is achieved, the rest will offer undying praise regardless of their own
opinion, for the most part. And failing, you will receive the scarlet
letter and eternal bashing. In which case, the options are exit and
reverse-promotion (hate channeling).
It's a hell of a lot of
work right now so it's good to see things start paying off. (Special
thanks to GR for helping!) Almost 2000 views daily now but I need to
multiply that by a factor of ten or fifteen, then I'll be at escape
velocity. It's a slow and trying take off. Houston's been having
technical difficulties and it's been tough getting powerful enough
rocket fuel, but the ship is starting to lurch upward I think.
I've already got some fan art/spoof thingies. 'The image below was an image apparently inspired by the Flute Hero series.
"Technically the greatest Guitar hero player alive."
I'm
also working on a new music video, trying to figure out how to get that
"AI pirate Twi" image to come alive and talk in super-modulated freaky
Deus Ex voices.
