The Niceaunties AI Video Grant is Now Open At Fellowship, we believe in creating an environment for experimentation and the development of ideas. That is why, when niceaunties proposed a 6-month grant program for mentorship and the creation of AI videos, we immediately said yes. The program will help support six artists, one every month, to create a Solo Show for the Fellowship Daily program. The commitment is to produce eight new videos based on a theme proposed by Niceaunties. This will be an open call for all the Daily Artists and the AI video community. This is the open call post; please follow, retweet and reply/submit a video for consideration. You have 3 days after this post to submit the work. ๐Ÿ“… Each grantee will receive a total of 2ETH provided by Niceaunties and Fellowship, as well as mentorship from Niceaunties and alejandro cartagena. The theme for this first month is ๐Ÿซด๐Ÿซด โ€œHow to make _โ€ A guide How you interpret and use this idea is completely open and can be as big and minimal part of the work you submit and produce during the grant. These funds and curatorial support are there to open up time for the creators to engage and create a space ideal for critical feedback. We believe that developing an artistic voice comes from experimentation and confrontation of ideas. All 8 pieces produced during the month will be auctioned on the daily . xyz site as a one-day Solo Show. All proceeds of the sales will go to the artists. We are looking for creators who want to expand their ideas and take their art to the next level. We thank Niceaunties for their passion and commitment to AI art and the art community. Good luck, everyone. Let's see some great art!

When I saw the mask "Tribes of the Calf" from Kanbas I knew I had to make it into reality. The jewelry and gold really made it stand out for me. Since Sam Spratt's The Masquerade was revealed, I have been spending time sculpting and dissecting the mask to recreate it in 3D as faithfully as possible. I delved into the creation of this mask for many reasons. I love a good challenge and this mask surely was one for me. Creating something in 3D from a 2D image is not easy, and especially when the source has generative nature, some stuff is hard to interpret, but I tried my best to make sure the visual integrity of the mask is as close to the original as possible. Splitting the whole mask into parts, filling the missing pieces so I can build the textures was quite a lot of work. I tried to present the mask in my own style with a slightly different colorway to adapt to the mask itself. Please enjoy this short animation, and turn on sound๐Ÿ”Š This piece is my statement that I am here to stay. That I have a voice that often feels being lost in the void. That I have been creating and posting digital art for over 20 years now and will continue until I'm gone. I have a story to tell and I want to be heard. The space we have here is small, and is shrinking day by day. It doesn't have to be like that. We need to support each other and push ourselves and people here, otherwise we are all doomed. As Kanbas has put in their observation of the mask: "Inspirational. Emotional. Natural." This is what our space can be, and this is me making a statement with this homage. I will share a 4k still below as well as a short video showing the 3D GLB interactive model together with a yt link to the 4k video since compression here is pretty bad.

My upcoming release of "Cinematic AI" has made me think about how bodies of work are formed. I think some are manifested and some are revealed. I think "Cinematic AI" falls into the latter category. It was not something I had a clear vision for and then created, but it was something that was revealed to me over time. I thought I saw a glimmer of it early on, but only after some time had past, could I see the body of work emerge. With a bit more context and watching great artists and how they work and think, it finally came to me that this series of 15-20 pieces that I had created could be a worthy collection to mint. AI art has been going through so many transformations from the early GAN work to Collaborative AI to now AI being widely accessible through platforms like MidJourney, Stable Diffusion, and many others. But one area that I have seen explode in recent months is cinematic AI. I distinguish this from animated AI, which has been around for a while, but cinematic AI is where the movements created by AI are getting closer to what you'd see in a movie or captured on a video camera. It still has a long way to go but it is getting more real than surreal as the technology develops. And this is where I seem to have found my groove, my home, my little corner in the artistic landscape. After Runway launched their image-to-video tool, it just blew my mind and I went down a deep rabbit hole and have created a new cinematic AI piece almost every other day for the past few months. I initially saw many of these pieces as just experiments, but with some time to reflect, I am seeing them as having the potential of being relevant pieces of artwork to mark this time in the development of AI. In some cases, I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to create a similar piece again, since the tools I use are not in my control, but in the control of the AI platforms, who are constantly improving and evolving the tools. Given all of this, there is no better way to mark my place in time than on the blockchain. I truly believe that this body of work has the potential to be an important artifact of this era in AI and AI art. It is always hard to judge ones own work, but what I can do is permanently etch in time on an immutable public database saying that I created this. Only time will tell if the work has any value or is of any significance, but who created it and what was created cannot be disputed. I hope this gives you and especially collectors some perspective on the work I'll be releasing next week. I'm still very early in my artistic journey, but hopefully some of you will see promise in what I'm doing and maybe even put in a early bet on my art practice by bidding on a piece next week. Thanks to all of you who have supported me, taught me, advised me, been a friend to me. Much love and respect.๐Ÿ™ ------------------------------------- CINEMATIC AI October 25, 2023 Marking on the blockchain, establishing historical provenance for a cinematic AI body of work.

Thanks to Central Connecticut State University for posting this video. I also want to thank the university for allowing my family and I to be the Founding Donors and help create the John Lewis Institute for Social Justice several years ago. I'm genuinely grateful for the platform that Central Connecticut State University gave us to serve students & faculty in the CCSU community in this unique way. The JLI Scholar spring break trip to Montgomery included visiting the Equal Justice Initiative Justice Initiative Legacy Sites, historic Montgomery Greyhound Bus Terminal & the Freedom Riders Museum ( and the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church where Martin Luther King Jr. began his first full-time pastorship in 1954. The EJI Legacy Sites include a museum, memorial, and monument. I visit my friend Bryan Stevenson (#JustMercy) and The Legacy Museum at least once a year. The museum is one of the most powerful, comprehensive experiences I have ever seen, by using video, artwork, holograms and other technology. The art of Molly Crabapple๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ท still takes my breath away ( The JLI Scholars also traveled to #Selma for the Edmund Pettus Bridge, Brown Chapel AME Church and finally Birmingham to visit the 16th St Baptist Church and the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute CCSU is over 46% First-Gen students - many with limited resources to travel like I was in college. This trip was a first of its kind experience for eight students and three faculty. I can personally understand the gravity of the experience. I did not have the opportunity to visit Civil Rights sights many parts of the south until I was an adult. However, the impact it had on me has been lifelong and it continues. I visit those sights and others EVERY year. Retrospectively, I still believe it wasn't a mistake that my/our commencement speaker at CCSU in 1988 was NAACP Executive Director Benjamin Hooks A tremendous 'thank you' to Beth Merenstein, Dr. Evelyn Newman Phillips and Dr. Audra King for their commitment to the JLI of Social Justice and for making the students trip/experience so special If the spirit moves you, please consider contributing to this amazing program at Central Connecticut State University: #goodtrouble #JohnLewis #MLK Birmingham Civil Rights Institute Central Connecticut State Universityfootball Central Connecticut State UniversityBlueDevils Central Connecticut State University_Fanatics RISE

Check out our latest #Earth2 #creation the #MotorwayMarauder๐ŸŒโœŒ๏ธFrom #ConceptArt to #gameready, gives me #MadMax & #Terminator vibes - love it! Some #IMPORTANT things to remember about #Earth2 #drops leading up to #E2V1๐Ÿ‘‡ 1โƒฃAcquiring #skins is completely optional 2โƒฃ Notably, the #skins we drop leading up to the #E2V1 release will more likely have a โ€˜Limited Supplyโ€™, something that rewards our early supporters with increased rarity. These Limited Supply drops will become less frequent in the future being replaced with drops of unlimited supply but restricted availability requiring Players to wait for a skin to become available in the skin store or hope to acquire it via game play inside #E2V1 3โƒฃ Our goal is not to have these early #skin drops sell out during their maiden release, but rather provide an opportunity for our early supporters to secure skins they like at a discounted price with the welcoming guarantee of an all time Limited Supply. 4โƒฃ Most of the early #skin drops will naturally allow #Players to resell them, but importantly many will also be assigned with a once ever discount rate. #Skins that have Future Price Reduction assigned with โ€œNoโ€ means that if the #skin does not sell out on its maiden drop and subsequently gets listed in store again at a future date, #Earth2 will never resell that #skin at any discounted rate. 5โƒฃ #Earth2 is building a modular clothing system, meaning that most items of clothing, especially if sold separately, will be interchangeable on avatars making them more useful and giving the #Player more ways to mix up their outfits, look the part & express themselves. 6โƒฃ The version of the skin you see in store is the base version you receive with the skin, however, there will also be opportunities to tailor outfits in game allowing for the adjustment in fabrics, prints, colours and more (be prepared for a little legwork though, unless you want to take your clothing items to another #Player who specialises in tailoring). 7โƒฃ #Earth2 is proud to have uniquely designed the #skins you listed in our store & it is important to remember that these #skins are the end result of a long and stringent internal character pipeline we have developed. Each skin starts from concept art which is reviewed and iterated on numerous times before being approved. Once approval is given, it is handed to our 3D modelling team for sculpting into high poly, then low poly, while receiving numerous reviews and adhering to our pipeline protocols. When the low poly version is finished, the 3D team then finishes with UV mapping and texture baking and runs their own QA process. Once the entire 3D sculpting process is approved, the models enter the skinning, rigging and weight painting process and are then passed to the animation team for further testing with various animations and another set of QA such as minimising clipping and identifying any other potential flaws in the model. The model then needs to go through the final process with a game developer to ensure it passed the final tests and is game ready for #E2V1. 8โƒฃ The above steps only represent a light explanation of our character and clothing pipeline, but as you can see weโ€™re not simply selling static concept art images or a high poly 3D model that lacks any kind of optimisations resulting in little chance of it ever being game ready in its advertised state - there is a lot of work that takes place in order to get these skins to the stage our #Players see them in the video footage. Each skin sold helps support different parts of the development of Earth 2 providing us with new opportunities to further expand our team, speed up development and keep stepping closer to our short and long term goals for #E2V1 and #Earth2. 9โƒฃ We understand that fashion will become a big part of the #Metaverse, but we want to remind people that while some #Players may decide to set rules for certain skins being required for access or a ticket to entry under certain circumstances, from #Earth2โ€™s perspective these skins are for cosmetic purposes only. ๐Ÿ”Ÿ These skin drops also give #Earth2 the chance to show off our ability and versatility in avatar creation and accessories so even if youโ€™re not keen on picking up a skin, remember to have fun and simply enjoy the progress! Also take heart every time you see a #skindrop, if the #E2V1 pre-alpha was not launching this year I wouldn't be dropping skins. We want to have at least some diversity for #avatars inside #E2V1 from the early stages! #Earth2 #Metaverse #Skins #Fashion #Collectibles #3DWorld #WIP #prealpha2024

Make Art Not War: The Battle for Creativity It's Adobe's annual Max event in London today and scott belsky's spotlight on AI paints a clear picture: AI isn't just on Adobe's agenda, it is the agenda. Adobe has already scored a home run with generative fill in Photoshop, a feature now spawning entire categories of memes - including my own video, which surprisingly garnered a million views. However, Adobe's ambitions extend beyond still imagery. The Tanker Charges Towards Video At Max, Adobe's Chief Product Officer put an emphasis on AI video generation with Firefly Video. The tech tanker is charging full steam ahead to the next obvious modality for creation, leaving a wake of disruption for any upstarts bold enough to challenge it. The announcement isn't new, but it showcases the emphasis on new product development with a marked increase in the velocity we can expect from the creative tech behemoth. The company that defined the norms of video editing with Premiere, and motion graphics with After Effects, has now entered the realm of AI-powered creation. The wake-up call is clear - the tankers are moving fast. Goliath vs. The Upstarts This development spells a daunting challenge for the numerous start-ups that dared to dethrone Adobe in recent years. For plenty of use cases people have been asking: Why use Photoshop when you have MidJourney? Why use Premiere when you have Descript? Why use After Effects when you have Runway? These aspiring disruptors sought to chip away at Adobe's dominance by offering more specialized, user-friendly solutions - a process that can be characterized as the 'unbundling' of Adobe. Now, they face a head-to-head collision with the very Goliath they sought to topple. Creators' Toolkit: A New Addition But this imminent clash isn't just a tale of corporate competition. This is a story about the tools of creation and their impact on creators themselves and the very canvas of creation. The advent of Firefly, Adobe's AI-driven offering, reflects a broadening recognition of artificial intelligence as an integral part of the creator's toolkit. In other words, Adobe's massive ecosystem of creators needn't wade out into new waters to acquire AI capabilities -- they will simply be infused into the products they already know and (mostly) love, but more critically -- need to use every day to get creative stuff done. The Increasing Stickiness of Adobe's Tools The intersection of AI and creative tools like Photoshop's generative fill is transforming how creators perceive and interact with AI. When they encounter the innovative features of generative fill, they're not primarily thinking about the AI technology that powers it. Instead, they're marveling at the cool new tool that's now part of their beloved Photoshop. This immediate affinity for "Photoshop" masks the sophisticated technology behind it, essentially furthering Adobe's stronghold on the creative industry. Layer in Adobe's stance to training their AI models with sources like Adobe Stock that promise rock-solid data provenance, and you can see Adobe clearly wants to seem like the responsible adults in the room. After all Adobe elected not to put the Behance catalog to work, perhaps rightly so given the ethical backlash to the scraping Artstation imagery. Adobe's Thirty Something Conundrum But it's not all rainbows and sunshine. While Adobe sails ahead full steam, there's an intriguing conundrum waiting in the wings. With 30-year-old codebases forming the foundation of its most popular tools, Adobe faces a significant challenge: its software has back pain. But it's not just a technical problem -- it's also a philosophical one, akin to the ship of Theseus. Can Adobe modernize and refactor its code bases without sacrificing the essence that made these tools indispensable to creators? Can they innovate without alienating their long-time users who've grown accustomed to the 'Adobe way' of doing things? An Unexpected Solution? Interestingly, solutions might emerge from unexpected quarters. Perhaps it'll take an army of developers armed with GitHub Co-Pilot to alleviate Adobe's refactoring nightmare. By automating parts of the refactoring process, it could accelerate the evolution of Adobe's legacy tools, making them more adaptable to the rapidly progressing tech landscape while preserving their core functionality. In a twist of irony, the AI that's reshaping Adobe's offerings might just come to the rescue of its own legacy. As Adobe navigates these murky waters, opportunities are emerging for new entrants in the field. Startups might also find their moment to shine in the midst of Adobe's strategic and technological shifts. With their innovative approaches and less-encumbered platforms, they have the chance to offer alternative solutions to creators seeking novel, efficient, and intuitive tools. The Battle for Creativity The tech giant's journey through a massive transformation at a previously unfathomable speed will set the course for the next era of creative technology. Given the sheer ubiquity of Adobe tools today, it's by far the most common way creators will experience AI. But let's be honest -- this transformation will not be easy. The future of creative tech isn't written yet and as a growing line up of new entrants vie for the prize, one thing's for sure: it's going to be a darn good fight. Make Art Not War In the end, it is the creators who stand to gain the most. As Adobe and its competitors lock horns, they'll strive to deliver increasingly powerful, intuitive, and efficient tools. But, it's up to the creators themselves to harness these innovations. Only by embracing and mastering these new tools can they unlock their full creative potential. So what are you waiting for? Wield these new tools at your disposal and turn your imagination into reality. We are the architects of a new era of creative self expression. If you enjoyed this, drop a like and retweet.

In 1998, Apple was on the verge of bankruptcy. Everyone advised Tim Cook not to join. "They thought it was headed straight down." He saw something different. A sparkle in Steve's eye. He spent 6 minutes explaining what Jobs actually taught him: Steve Jobs was a teacher. "He taught me the value of focus, the importance of simplicity, the fact that making things simple is so much harder than making things complex." "For those of us that were fortunate enough to work with him, he was the teacher of a lifetime." When Jobs recruited him, Cook trusted his gut. "There was a feeling I had in talking to Steve that he was a very different kind of CEO. He was focused on products, products, and products." "He had a belief that small teams could do amazing work. I love that vision." Everyone else was chasing enterprise. Jobs wanted consumers. "In an environment where everyone was going to an enterprise kind of company, he wanted to refocus Apple on consumers." "It was brilliant because at the time nobody was doing that. Everybody thought you could not make any money selling to consumers." "I've never thought it was a good idea to follow the herd." Cook saw what others missed. "I thought I had a chance of a lifetime to work with the creative genius that started the entire industry. I didn't want to pass that up." People had forgotten how close Apple was to death. "Apple was on the verge of bankruptcy. It was a really awful time. People advised me not to come because they thought it was headed straight down." "But I saw something different. I saw the sparkle in Steve's eye. It meant we could pull off this turnaround for this American treasure." "I'm so glad to have been a part of that team." The teams that built Apple's greatest products were tiny. "He taught me the value of innovation, the fact that small teams could do amazing things." "I look at the size of the iPod team initially. I look at the size of the iPhone team. These were very small teams in the scheme of things." Jobs hired people who challenged him. "Hiring the best people to surround you that challenge you. That have skills that you don't. And being confident with that." The skill that made Jobs different wasn't conviction. It was flexibility. "He taught me not to be married to my past views. Not to be so proud you can't change your mind when you're presented with new evidence." "He could change like this." Cook was initially taken aback. "And then I became so enamored with it. Very few people have that skill because they get married to their past views." "I thought it was a brilliant skill." Did Jobs change Cook's mind? "Oh, he changed my mind about a lot of things. And he changed his mind about a lot of things." Did Cook ever change Jobs's mind? "Yes, of course. He loved to debate. He loved someone to debate him. You could always change his mind if you had the best idea." "We changed each other's minds. That's the reason it works so well." Cook sees supply chain as art. "Manufacturing has always interested me because I'm very curious about how things are made. I like to go to factories and see how things are put together, how they're created." "My undergraduate degree is in industrial engineering. It's essentially the study of people and machines and how the two working together can create things they couldn't create on their own." "I've always viewed the supply chain to be a bit of a piece of art when it's done correctly. It's a symphony of thousands of different components and parts coming together to create something." What did he sacrifice to get here? "Sleep. And fortunately, I love coffee." How much coffee? "Many cups. Please do not benchmark that." He starts every morning the same way. "I get up very early. I quickly go to the Mac and begin to go through the emails that have come in." "A lot of what I'm reading are from customers telling me how they're using our products and what it's doing for them." "I get notes that are positive and some that are not so positive. People feel free to reach out and voice their opinion. I think this is great because it keeps my hand on the pulse of the company." How does he handle criticism? "I have relatively thick skin. I try to internalize it and ask myself: is that accurate or not? Not just quickly put up a defensive shield and say why what we've done is right." What do people not realize about his job? "How much fun it is." "At times I hear other CEOs talk about how terrible their jobs are. Mine is fantastic. I love it." He made a 25-year plan in graduate school. "The first year or two was reasonably accurate. After that, it wasn't worth the paper it was written on." "Life has a way of happening and throwing you off from some well-crafted plan." "The most important thing is to roll with it. Make sure you recognize when doors are opening. And choose the one to walk through."

๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸฌPI NETWORK NEWS: Pi Network and the 100 Apps Ready for Mainnet: Understand Clearly, Wait Patiently, and Build Together 1. Frequently Asked Question: โ€œWhere Are the Promised 100 Apps?โ€ As Pi Network progresses toward a truly decentralized blockchain ecosystem, the community naturally wonders: Where are the 100 decentralized applications (dApps) that were promised to be ready for Mainnet? This is a perfectly valid question, showing the communityโ€™s interest in the pace of ecosystem development and the role of the Pi Core Team in driving innovation. 2. The Pi Core Team Doesnโ€™t Build Everything โ€“ The Community Is the Heart of the Ecosystem The key point to understand is: Pi Network is a community-driven project. The Pi Core Team is not responsible for building all the apps. Their focus is on building the infrastructure, tools, and a safe environment โ€“ empowering external developers to independently create and deploy applications. Pi provides: - An optimized blockchain platform for mobile devices - SDKs, APIs, and developer documentation - A governance model that encourages innovation 3. Early Stage: Community-Built dApps โ€“ Underfunded But Passionate In the early stages, many applications were created by passionate pioneers, self-funded and full of creativity. However, due to budget limitations, most of these apps remained in experimental or prototype form, not yet ready for wide-scale deployment. Despite their early-stage nature, these apps played a crucial role in demonstrating Pi's blockchain potential and encouraging broader developer engagement. 4. A New Turning Point: $100 Million Ecosystem Fund and Pi Network Ventures A major change has arrived: Pi Network Ventures and a $100 million ecosystem fund have officially launched. This brings: - Strong financial support to upgrade promising apps - Opportunities to scale and enhance advanced features - Marketing assistance, user acquisition support, and long-term sustainability This is a decisive push paving the way for a wave of high-quality dApps ready for Mainnet. 5. A Diverse, Decentralized Ecosystem Built by the Community The Pi Core Team does not control everything but builds the foundation for an open ecosystem, where developers, entrepreneurs, and the community play leading roles. This decentralization helps to: - Increase application diversity - Avoid reliance on a single entity - Encourage collaboration and innovation from many directions 6. 100+ Apps Will Soon Arrive โ€“ And Itโ€™s More Than Just a Number As funding, tools, and community momentum converge, an app explosion is predictable: More than 100 dApps ready for Mainnet will soon emerge, spanning areas like: - Decentralized finance (DeFi) - Gaming (GameFi) - Social media - Supply chain - Payments, asset management, and more This will expand Piโ€™s real-world utility, attract more users, and strengthen Pi Networkโ€™s position in the Web3 space. 7. Why Patience and Cooperation Are Essential Building a global-scale blockchain ecosystem does not happen overnight. It requires: - Solid technology - Passionate development teams - A resilient and collaborative community - Time for products to mature and prove their value The patience and contributions of pioneers like you are the driving force of this journey. 8. A Broad Vision: Web3 and Social Impact The future of Pi Network is not just about technical platforms: It is about a connected ecosystem with social and economic impact, serving billions of people, not just a privileged few. With a focus on inclusive, meaningful, user-friendly applications, Pi is preparing for a fair and inclusive Web3 future. โœ…Conclusion: 100+ Apps โ€“ Not Just an Empty Promise, But a Realization in Progress The question โ€œWhere are the 100 apps?โ€ is fair. But more importantly, you need to know that: - The infrastructure is ready - The funding is available - The community is building continuously And you โ€“ the pioneer โ€“ are part of the answer. Be patient, collaborate, and support the developers and fellow pioneers. Because the future of Pi Network does not belong to just a few, it belongs to all of us working together.๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ ------------------------- ๐Ÿฅฐ P.S.: The Global GCV Core Team welcomes pioneers from around the world to work together to build a strong GCV-based Pi economy.

the future is not the app store a 6 minute rant vibe coding tools have one problem no one's talking about anyone can make an app but no one can release an app posting on tiktok is instant, posting on youtube is instant what if posting a video on tiktok took 2-7 days and a panel of individuals who have NEVER posted a tiktok on their own, determined if your video was "tiktok-like" welcome to the 2025 app store, where this is the case let me explain a long time ago, when the first few iphones were released, apple had a tough battle motorola and blackberry were great competitors with phones people loved apple decided to open up the app store, and invite devs to come create whatever they wanted the app store was created by people like me, iBeer, Paper toss, Bump. these are my founding fathers. people who treated engineering as art. they didn't care about being cool they cared about making their friends look cool and using iBeer made you look cool the catch was -> iBeer was only available on the iPhone as hundreds of these iPhone exclusive apps were released thousands, hundreds of thousands, and millions flocked to use an iPhone small, focused, creative apps made the iPhone what it was but as soon as the iPhone became incumbent, the doors shut. tight. new rules. new regulations. new taxes. i spent the last 6 days working on an app we release an app a week at Danger Testing, bringing back that old energy. making the internet fun again i didnt sleep much, and even with the trauma the app store has put me in before ~ i had faith. that they would do right by this work I put in I was wrong They haggled with me for a few days on the type of data I was storing, which was none ~ (they would know that if they were engineers) Then at the last minute mailed it in with a rejection, with the words "this app is not app like" a sentence that means nothing Guideline 4.2 - Design - Minimum Functionality this is a guideline they hide behind anytime they have decided internally they don't feel an app should be released, but don't want to tell you why you leave me stranded. no where to go, no improvements to make, just go away there's a huge opportunity waiting to happen in apps right now for the first time apps can be cultural commentary, apps can be viral and ephemeral APPS CAN BE EVERYTHING YOUTUBE VIDEOS CAN BE software is fast, software costs nothing everything is lined up except the app store as it stands isn't a platform, it's a government and your average vibe coder is not going to push through a rejection, let alone 20+ rejections -> which i received on my first app of the year millions of apps will be made the success of these apps should be dependent on distribution, not on if some dude thinks its legit This revolution will NOT happen if the doors we have to go through are owned by the app store We need something new, something true and beautiful and welcoming Danger Testing wants everyone to be an appstar This tweet is not on the heels of a single rejection It's on the heels of hundreds of app store rejections in a lifetime A battle to provide the world with what I know it will love But a battle filled with friction at every turn due to the suits I remember being at a hackathon and making this app with andrea The judges ranked us last place, said the app was too goofy Today the last iteration of that app got 25+ million views across the internet This is the new world A group of dudes sitting behind a table don't get to decide our reality, we get to create it Fight back Don't ever allow yourself to be subjected by non shipper losers with no courage The cavalry isn't coming We are the cavalry Let's fight

๋Œ€ํ†ต๋ น๋‹˜, ๋‰ด์ง„์Šค- ํ•˜์ด๋ธŒ ์ด์Šˆ๋ฅผ ๋ด์ฃผ์‹ญ์‹œ์˜ค [English Transcript] Mr. President, please take a closer look at the issue between NewJeans and HYBE. This video does not simply address a dispute between one company and one artist team. It deals with nationally significant issues... the structure of the cultural industry within the K-pop creative ecosystem, the way power operates, how public opinion is shaped, and the transparency of democracy itself. That is why this video may be somewhat lengthy, but I sincerely ask you to watch it until the end. The key messages I want to convey are organized as follows: 1. Why the State Must Pay Attention to K-pop Industry Issues K-pop drives domestic demand, exports, and tourism. Alongside semiconductors and defense, it is a strategic industry led by the next generation, a core field that the nation must protect and foster. Therefore, the government needs to inspect the health and structural problems of the K-pop creative ecosystem. 2. Why the Government Must Pay Attention to the NewJeansโ€“HYBE Case (Reason 1) The new direction that Min Hee-jin and NewJeans have shown in K-pop represents a healthy production model centered on respect for artists and the creative process. This could become a turning point for improving the problems in the current K-pop system. (Reason 2) This is not merely an issue involving one team. It is a case that exposes how structures of power suppress and exclude creative agents. To ensure the sustainability of the entire cultural and industrial ecosystem, this needs to be examined and addressed. (Reason 3) The way this situation has been handled, through media influence, legal maneuvering, and alleged manipulation of public opinion, raises issues that go beyond this industry and are directly tied to the principles of fairness and democracy. Therefore, a special audit of the company is necessary for the sake of the public interest. 3. Comprehensive Proposal: This is not a trivial internal conflict within one company. It exposes structural problems in the K-pop industry and holds the potential to change its future. Moreover, it could become a symbolic turning point that brings about meaningful structural change in Koreaโ€™s cultural and industrial landscape. Please, take the time to listen until the end. This video was made independently and conscientiously, with no personal or financial interest, out of concern for Koreaโ€™s cultural and industrial development and national competitiveness. So please, I ask that you take the time to listen until the end. This video was made independently, without any private interest, and with a sincere concern for the development of Koreaโ€™s cultural industry and national competitiveness. Why the K-pop Industry Deserves National Attention Mr. President, you have emphasized revitalizing the domestic economy as a national priority. K-pop does precisely that, it stimulates exports and tourism, invigorates small businesses and local economies, and supports livelihood industries. The economic ripple effect of the K-pop industry can revitalize entire regions, from restaurants, souvenir shops, and accommodations to transportation, shopping, performances, and exhibitions. While public support funds only redistribute an existing domestic pie, growth in industries like K-pop that reach global markets expands the pie itself. K-pop also creates value from nothing, with far fewer geographic or geopolitical constraints than manufacturing, and generates steady global revenue. As a brand, K-culture has unique global competitiveness and irreplaceable differentiation. Moreover, as a nation in a key geopolitical position, the more South Korea is recognized culturally and attracts visitors, the stronger its hand becomes in diplomacy, trade, and security negotiations. 4. The Need for New Generational Leadership And in a rapidly changing global era, South Koreaโ€™s future depends on young creative talent, those who canโ€™t be constrained by the old frameworks of industrialization. K-pop, as a youth-led, globally competitive field, symbolizes this new future. Therefore, K-pop should be protected and developed just like semiconductors or defense industries, with government support to ensure a healthy and sustainable ecosystem. 5. Why NewJeans and Min Hee-jin Matter You may ask: To what extent should the government intervene? You once said that in the arts, where politicians may not fully grasp the nuances, it is essential to listen to skilled professionals who have proven results. Min Hee-jin is one such professional. From her start as a junior employee at SM Entertainment to becoming an executive, she demonstrated unmatched ability to connect artistic vision with popular success, without a single failure. At ADOR, with only around 16 billion won of capital, she achieved over 190 billion won in sales within two years, proving that artistic value can translate into economic value. Most importantly, she refused to exploit unethical industry practices like album bulk-buying. Instead, she built NewJeans to show that art itself can be profitable, proving that honesty and creativity can coexist in business. 6. A Healthier Model for Artist Treatment Under her leadership, artists were treated with dignity, provided good housing and supportive environments, invited to her home, encouraged to study art and participate in songwriting, and even paid promptly within two months of debut. When ADOR achieved major success, NewJeans members received tens of billions in settlements, unprecedented in K-pop. She never exploited fan loyalty for profit. Even if fans could afford only one album, she ensured it was worth their money, offering honest, high-quality content. This proved that true profit in K-pop can come from the artistic value itself, not from manipulative marketing. It showed a path toward ethical, sustainable growth for K-pop. Therefore, please, give Min Hee-jin and NewJeans a chance to work together again. At the very least, hear what they have to say about K-pop. And as for HYBE, there must be an audit equivalent to a special investigation. 7. The Mechanism of Power that Suppresses Creativity In April 2024, NewJeansโ€™ global popularity was explosive, topping Billboard and Spotify, reshaping girl-group trends, and breaking Guinness World Records. Without any world tour, they achieved over 100 billion won in revenue through music alone, surpassing even the early growth rates of BTS and BLACKPINK. Yet, at the height of this success, HYBE raided ADORโ€™s offices, dismissed CEO Min Hee-jin, and dismantled the creative foundation that built NewJeans. This not only destroyed one teamโ€™s future but also dealt a severe blow to Koreaโ€™s cultural competitiveness. HYBEโ€™s public reason? That Min Hee-jin tried to take NewJeans independent. But given that HYBE owns 80% of ADORโ€™s shares, such independence was structurally impossible. The true goal appears to have been to strip Min of her authority and seize control of the creative process. After her removal, the core creative staff who built NewJeans were fired or pushed out. Suspicious internal financial transactions followed. The pattern matches what we have seen before in HYBE, talented creators producing success, only to be marginalized once their results can be absorbed by corporate power. 8. The Pattern of Power and Control within HYBE In previous cases, key developers and creators were pushed out as HYBEโ€™s management centralized around one man, Chairman Bang Si-hyuk. After public listing, HYBE expanded aggressively through acquisitions, and the CEOs of those subsidiaries were later removed. The same pattern repeated with Min Hee-jin and ADOR. And in all this, the creative value, the art itself, was disregarded. No healthy company destroys its most successful creative division. This is abnormal, and therefore demands scrutiny. The courts may hesitate to intervene, since rulings could affect corporate precedents, but that is exactly why state-level oversight is needed. K-pop is a national asset, and if a leading K-pop company makes such abnormal decisions toward one of its most promising teams, the state has ample reason for a public audit. 9. The Need for Transparency in Media and Judiciary HYBEโ€™s pattern involves media manipulation, legal intimidation, and organized online smear campaigns. Comparing reports over the past year reveals clear imbalance, suggesting external influence on editorial direction. Thus, media reform to ensure fair reporting is needed. Judicial and public-opinion manipulation must also be examined. Cases of coordinated comment attacks on lawmakers who criticized HYBE during the 2024 National Assembly audit indicate possible โ€œcomment factoryโ€ activity, systematic online operations that distort public opinion. If such manipulation exists, it is a grave threat to democracy itself. When power can distort truth through money and media, neither creators, workers, nor consumers can be fairly evaluated. Auditing HYBE could expose how such systems operate, not only protecting K-pop, but preventing similar abuse in politics and other industries. 10. Broader Implications for Koreaโ€™s Future Industries This is a matter of principle. In every industry, from AI to manufacturing, progress depends on fair competition, respect for skilled practitioners, and merit-based leadership. When leadership is earned through competence, industries thrive; when it is preserved through privilege, they decay. Koreaโ€™s rapid development has produced entrenched interests without fair verification of ability, a structural problem visible across industries. And when the leading company in such a vital cultural field behaves this way, the state must intervene. Good leaders and companies that value authenticity, fairness, and creativity should be given the opportunity to set the new standard. Min Hee-jin and NewJeans demonstrated that possibility in K-pop. Only when merit-based, ethical companies lead can any industry, including K-pop, achieve sustainable and healthy growth. A strong, fair industrial foundation is the prerequisite for a truly sustainable welfare state. That is the responsibility of government. 11. Final Appeal Mr. President, the NewJeansโ€“HYBE issue is not just an internal dispute. It is a test case, whether Korea will continue allowing power to suppress creativity and absorb othersโ€™ achievements, or whether it will set a new standard for fairness across industries. Please give Min Hee-jin and NewJeans the opportunity to work together again. Please listen to the voices of artists who have built the true value of K-pop. That voice can become the driving force for Koreaโ€™s future. To all viewers This channel is not monetized and holds no vested interests in any party. I speak not as a fan of any group, but as a citizen who loves this country and wishes for Koreaโ€™s cultural and industrial future to grow in the right direction. I know my perspective may not always be correct. If there are misunderstandings, I welcome correction with evidence. But if this message carries even a grain of truth, if it sounds fair and meaningful, then please help deliver it to those who can make change, including the President. Somewhere around you, a friend, colleague, family member, or even your local hairdresser, there may be someone who can understand and act. This voice may be minor, it may soon fade, but if even one more person begins to think critically about these unjust structures, that awareness can gather and become the power to build a better society. ------ Watch the video on youtube:
