one should not chase the electric dream, but strive to became an extension to its dreamer

Automatism in the age of the children of Unix.

It's a box of antique photographs. A blade, a girl and a fish. Whatever it means, you're invested.

I've always loved the vibe of these, but this one is especially striking. Do you do prints?

Fedi sometimes feels like a real life marketplace. Not an onlineshop or a big store, where you just browse stuff, but a place where you meet people and some of them are selling stuff they made.

I love your work so much, thank you so much for posting your work on lemmy.

It brings me so much joy to see your art while I’m doom scrolling on this cursed site.

Poor purple :( he's being very brave in that respect

I still don't understand these but I like the vibe

the old sentient machine tells the mage/hacker, that the corpos are envious that she has been able to talk to machines since the beginning, while they have to spend endless resources in order to fuel their `AI' in order to have something that barely resembles machine sentience.

You can speak to computers, you always could. And you do not need a bigtech overlord telling you how and with what.

Why think for yourself when someone else can steal it, feel it, learn it, and think it for you. Look at how easily it steals everything, for you.

Sorry, you're out of chatbot tokens. Please buy more.

Love this one

[–] notabot@lemm.ee 16 points 1 week ago

Ok, that one hits harder than most. It's definitely one of my favourites.

I love your drawings (if you are the creator). Feels like well made paint drawings but with a fixed style. Your coloring scheme really makes the whole scenes pop.

Do you use a stylus or is it all mouse?

[–] pmjv@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 6 days ago

yes, gimp with a stylus. some of the more convoluted stuff I draw on paper first.
