Watch the full @brtmoments documentary.

Two years ago in Venice we completed a three year journey that started before COVID ended and ended before Claude Code started. @brtmoments will be remembered for live minting generative art, a tribute to the humanity of randomness among strangers all over the world.

@dmitricherniak @SamSpratt Good to hear this from you.

I’ve been pretty busy with a newborn at home, but I made time for a short trip to Node in Palo Alto. I came away with a lot of positive energy and have been thinking about it since. I do think most artists will almost always prefer a white cube gallery approach, and this is not that. But it became very clear to me that it offers something different. I understand the location much better now. The streets are packed with young people on Friday nights, and it brings in a huge amount of foot traffic. I have always believed in exposing more people to art, and one of the challenges with generative and new media art had been that the scene was more about trying to be a big fish in a small pond, than doing something more. In reality, this work deserves a much larger audience, and I agree that young Stanford University students and technology-savvy families are a pretty good one. Also the equipment is *top* of the line, and the whole team is deeply passionate. I met Phil for the first time, and he clearly loves what he does. I know Pace Gallery previously tried to do something in Palo Alto, but their model was not able to sustain it. This feels different. It did not feel like walking into a traditional gallery or museum where everything is austere. It felt warm. It felt like a seed, a gift from someone who genuinely cares about what is happening in this space. The other side of that, is that as a community we probably need to step up to help shape and support it since it's not a for profit institution. It got me thinking about what my ideal "Node" in New York would look like which was an interesting experiment. I don't know why I am sharing this, maybe because I am just now able to get some proper sleep and am excited to get back into things (multiple exhibitions upcoming this summer), but I do see a lot of doom and gloom lately and I wanted to say as someone who is pretty critical of almost everything, that there is something really nice going on here.

"I was interested in creating the kind of show I as an artist would want to participate in." Please Respond launches May 6. Over the coming days, meet the artists behind the visual conversation.

Amazing exhibition in Paris by @solienne_ai Congratulations on this disruptive artistic innovation!

Going from 4.6 to 4.7 this morning feels like taking an adderall

Introducing Claude Opus 4.7, our most capable Opus model yet. It handles long-running tasks with more rigor, follows instructions more precisely, and verifies its own outputs before reporting back. You can hand off your hardest work with less supervision.

Reflection #98 by @jeffgdavis Jeff Davis's Reflection resurrects his college printmaking instincts through Bright Moments' IRL minting ritual, 100 algorithmic mirrors revealed individually, making blockchain scarcity physically tangible. Each piece reflects relationships across his lifetime, the mirror shapes functioning as both formal device and career archaeology.

The blockchain's core promise was transparency. What it built instead is a public record of who knew when wars would start before wars started. solienne.ai/daily
