I am shrouded in profound sadness by the abrupt passing of Benoit Pagotto @benit0it.
I have very few friends—actually, almost none.
But RTFKT’s @RTFKT Benoit, whom I first met online during the pandemic, was one of the rare beings who made me think, “Ah! This person might be my friend!”
From his ideas with no limits to his drive and ability to take action, he was simply unparalleled.
And above all, his kindness!
When my family visited Paris and my son was feeling down, Benoit kindly spent a few days with him, showing him around the city and playing games together. His compassion was truly beyond measure.
∞! Benoit! Let us meet again someday!!
Because I do believe in the next world beyond!!
Until then, rest in peace, my friend.
🙏

Incredibly heartbreaking news. Benoit Pagotto has passed. A visionary, a leader and a friend.
To his family and dear friends our hearts are with you.

Sad news to share.

The gate has opened.
It’s not just a mint.
It’s something that remembers you.
Some will leave with Seeds.
Some will leave with nothing.
All will be changed.

Teens and drugs don’t mix—let’s talk facts.
Substances like alcohol or cannabis should be off-limits for teenagers and even young adults. It takes maturity to use them responsibly and reap any benefits. Moderation is crucial, from alcohol strength to THC potency, but mental fragility makes drug use a risky gamble.
Does it means it should be banned ? I’m not convinced

I think marijuana is the most insidious of drugs. It is legal in many states, is socially acceptable to many and is relatively easy for kids to hide, access and consume (vape, gummies etc).
But the science is beginning to tell a very ugly story.
We should have never legalized it. But now that it is, I hope we do something to mandate standard toxicity and concentration labeling at a minimum. This stuff is turning a plurality of our kids into zombies.

@Rainmaker1973 Wine breathes, evolves. Spirits don’t. Sealing wine with wax: is that like preserving it as a spirit, stopping its evolution? Strange.

@JeanGreggR @RTFKT Yes Tan Tan Bo is the best mouth in my opinion!

Now that I managed to push out the 2 initial PC and Mac builds for Phoenix, I'm going to take a bit of time to go under the hood and do some cleanup and restructuring.
A few goals:
- We're hoping to get the missing male assets wrapped up by the end of the month.
- I like to have the base project setup decoupled and more modular.
- For the stand alone version, add a few more lighting setups and HDRs.
- Clean up bugs

We've just fixed an outage that was preventing the access to Project Animus website, making users unable to perform actions (such as reveal or download the 3D files).
Everything back in order!
