ASTROPOETICON by Herbert W. Franke set into immersive scenery by members of our generative art community Cosmic electrical storms gamma-ray cascades darkness, cold – frozen light the ocean of the vacuum @HerbertWFranke poem visualized by Joshua Davis @JoshuaDavis Joshua is an American pioneer of generative art and creative coding. Since the mid-1990s, he has used algorithms and code to create complex visual artworks. He programs his own algorithms, often using Processing or Flash, which employ mathematical rules to generate dynamic abstractions and multimedia works. Through his film studio, he has also designed visuals and stage designs for artists such as Taylor Swift, Kanye West, Tool and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I am honored that he is part of the project.

🟪ASTROPOETICON 🟪 16 space poems by Herbert W. Franke launch of a multimedia project with invited generative artists from three continents clebrating Herbert's 100th birthday in 2027 "Destination unknown solar sails wide unfurled riding on the ion beam a safe haven: far beyond space and time." this is how ASTROPOETICON beginns ... The foundation launched the multimedia project ASTROPOETICON as a special tribute to Herbert W. Franke. It is based on a cycle of sixteen poems of the same name that Herbert W. Franke wrote in 1979 for an art book with works by the space artist Andreas Nottebohm. They were translated into English by James Ginzburg and narrated by Eric Ash in a studio recording. The poems explore the physical laws governing the cosmos and the evolutionary processes within it, culminating in the emergence of intelligence. For this immersive multimedia production, the foundation invited artists from three continents. Starting today, I will introduce the participating artists. @HerbertWFranke @JuliusHorsthuis @piotrbinkowski @plutonicmind @Studio_De_Wilde @JoshuaDavis @Natalia_Oliwiak @marioecg @Marteriumx @Juanrg922 @loackme_ @_weidi_ @Sko_hr

@GregHuntoon @soleio @DanielSWall @diplo 🤘

Yup yup yup. Your experience is your knowledge graph. Man, love hearing him talk about reading liner notes to find the bassist on X track. Feel the same way about DP's. I know a Deakins-shot film when I see it, nearly instantly, same way you could recognize @JoshuaDavis's or @gmunk's digital visuals back in the day.

Most useful take on taste and AI that I’ve heard in a while. The quality of your prompts are dictated by the quality of your artistic vocabulary. If you’re not scouring material or untangling references and inspiration, you won’t have the sample range. Bravo @DanielSWall @diplo

@24_Hours_Art @dangiuz @Punk8868 I had so much fun acquiring the Squiggle that it unlocked a whole evening of collecting. I also ended up with a lot of work from @REAS , @Jen_Stark , @JoshuaDavis , and @ninachanel ... It was quite a day.

@chilltulpa @memoakten @fx_hash_ memo def talk to @chilltulpa

@memoakten Would love to speak about @fx_hash_, 👀

Working on a new idea/project that would work really well as a generative nft collection. I’ve been a bit out of touch lately, what are the best / most interesting generative art platforms these days? (I don’t mean to start a flame war, genuinely curious what’s going on :)

@threejs @boneGPT fun times.

@boneGPT @JoshuaDavis Time to do a new one!

crazy we have AI but nobody has made any cool custom experimental websites like praystation from 2002 the internet was better when we had flash

@_nonfigurativ_ @mrdoob Yeah. I'll own this. I don't even think I was fed/paid tbh... A lot of these was "exposure"... And it was the illustrator team that even gave me the time of day. These days I'm inkscape anyway. I just miss the macromedia days. 😂 😭

@JoshuaDavis @mrdoob Bite hand that feeds you eh Josh? ;-P

It's happening.

@_nonfigurativ_ @mrdoob I pressed "heart" so hard... my finger poked a hole directly through my phone.

@mrdoob I have wanted Adobe dead since they bought Macromedia

@joshlim I'm alive... Just deep into a huge Linux server rack build... And I'm not thrilled about social media tbh. I'm mostly on discord chatting with fellow nerds.

@JoshuaDavis are you still alive? havent seen any posts this month...

January 7th... one day at a time... 31 years clean and sober.

@JoshuaDavis Which artist created those screens? Gorgeous. Modern Moebius.

In the studio I drive a lot of Linux distros. Arch + NIRI, Ubuntu Server, and my daily driver has been popOS... But tonight I installed PikaOS + Gnome (49) and wow. It's really good / wiki.pika-os.com/en/home / I think its time to swap my new daily driver.

@eeismann Cheers. I made them.
