From the bottom of my heart, thank you all for such a warm welcome so far. It truly makes me so happy to discover new people with so much talent and #creativity here on #Pixelfed. It reminds me of how Instagram used to be before everything went off track.

For me, the goal isn’t just about chasing likes and followers, but hopefully finding like-minded people through what I do—and in that, getting to know more wonderful people. That used to be one of the great strengths of the internet, before it was slowly eaten up by corporate interests.

I’m looking forward to all of you I haven’t met yet, but who I might, over time, share many great things with ❤️

Well I did it.

Instead of sleeping, I spent the night writing an open letter to Mikey Shulman, the CEO of #suno.

I am dog-tired, and boosts are greatly appreciated. ❤️

Imagination is the most important skill. Let's stick with imagination instead of creativity, for we use "#creativity" as a signifier when we lack imagination. We use it as a plain panacea, when we cannot imagine what a solution looks like, or as an empty account in arguing why one deserves better than another.
While creativity has unique and wonderful, hope infusing discursive properties, it is virtually useless in production.
Imagination is creating for solutions outside the realm of given options, it isn't mere hope, it is the real thing, a true chance, another brute force, it's getting to reality's constitution and screws it.
It is most valuable, it is what drives innovation, be it for better or enterprise.
While one might find solace that pleasure requires pain, the imaginative mind already explores a world of pure happiness.

Imagine imagination as the capacity to think the unfathomable, to venture into the unintelligible. It really is child's play. Fun to learn but we may only imagine mastering it.

Lito, a self-taught Japanese artist who began creating intricate, hand-carved art on fallen leaves as a way to manage his ADHD. He carefully selects each leaf & carves whimsical patterns that often depict animals, objects & landscapes - transforming delicate leaves into complex scenes.
Art that captures the fleeting beauty of nature.

Pablo Picasso: "We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth, at least the truth that is given to us to understand.

The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies. If he only ever shows in his work that he has searched, and researched, for the way to put over lies, he would never accomplish anything."

- p.135 'Picasso Speaks', 1923

This has been gnawing at both me and my peers' minds for way too many years. Given recent events, I think it's time to let it all out.

https://catgirl.homes/~ako/blog/2024/on-computer-festivals/

Please join us on a retrospective of #Norway's #Computer culture, revisiting the past 12 or so years of a facet of social activity that is currently struggling to make ends meet.

What was it like, what changed, and what do we think must be reconsidered in order to revive this currently dying culture of #ComputerFestival s. What to me was about #creativity, #programming, #composing and the #demoscene, and for some about #gaming, cosplay, 3D printing, and much much more.

Time for an #introduction!

#webdev/engineer by day, dad by afternoon, husband by night (with some overlap). Trying to make the world a better place, one way or another.

Passionate about #sustainability, particularly in relation to #community, the #builtenvironment , #urbandesign and #transit. Love #technology and #creativity — particularly the places where the two meet — and learning in general.

Expect to be tootin’ about all of the above, and more.

😱 Artist: #TitoMulk in City: #Besseges 42, Rue Victor Hugo France 🇨🇵 2021 - Title: "Imagine" - La créativité c'est l'intelligence qui s'amuse - ("Creativity is intelligence having fun" /"Kreativität ist Intelligenz, die sich amüsiert") (📷 by Altinov) - #Streetart #Art #Painting #Mural #Graffiti #Artist #Creativity #MondayMotivation 😉

Streetartwall. A black and white mural of a man screaming has been painted on an orange wall. The bearded man's face, drawn in great detail, has been painted three times on top of each other so that he appears to be moving. He is screaming with his mouth wide open, while wires with plugs and cables lead out of his wild hair. Worm-like parts and a tiny skeleton head fly out of his mouth. Impressively designed mural.
Info: The mural is part of a large mural on the outside wall of the adjoining two-storey house, on which more of these figures can be seen.

Excited to share my latest creation, Crystal Flower Dream! It's amazing to see my imagination come alive in such a unique way. In the last couple years, it has been therapeutic for me to create and surround myself with beautiful images, whether it's photography or digitally created.

Some beads are connected together around the bloom, making it look like a chemistry symbol.
