To achieve the best results, you need to learn from the best. However, because we live in a Twitter bubble, many great studios don’t even have a presence here. A few years ago, we had a weekly Motion digest showcasing some work from the best of the best. At that time, we had 0 audience. Let's see if these stories can be interesting for someone now. I am so happy to introduce you to Not Real - a design-driven creative studio focused on art direction, CGI, and animation, located in Buenos Aires and Madrid. A team led by award-winning creative directors Milton Gonzalez and Valeria Moreiro. Their crew of designers and animators is obsessed with pushing boundaries, earning nods like the Indigo Awards and MUSE Creative Awards.

$As with i/o, each track on the new album will be accompanied by a piece of art and Been Undone has a cover image called Ciclotrama 156 (Palindrome) by São Paulo–based artist Janaina Mello Landini. ‘The first artwork is a special piece from Janaina Mello Landini. The way she takes the rope and moves it out, unravelling it, is almost like fractals or tree trunks and looks like the brain in some ways too, so I see a lot of entry points. I am delighted that Janaina is willing to participate and be part of the process. We are using one of her existing images for this month to open the whole proceedings but I'm excited that she's now going to create a piece, especially for the song. That always gives it a little more excitement from my end to see what's going to come up. Please do check out her work.’$

$AI's Secret Pattern: The Surprising Role of Fractals in Neural Networks In the realm of artificial intelligence (AI), a groundbreaking discovery has emerged, challenging our conventional understanding of neural network training and optimization. This revelation centers around the identification of fractal patterns at the boundary between trainable and untrainable neural network hyperparameters, presenting a series of profound implications and avenues for further research. Fractals, known for their intricate, self-similar patterns that recur at every scale, have long fascinated mathematicians and scientists alike. Typically associated with simple, one-dimensional iterative functions, the appearance of fractals within the complex, multivariate domain of neural network training introduces a striking contrast. The organic and asymmetric nature of these fractals, as derived from the training processes, suggests a deeper, unexplored connection between the mathematical properties of fractals and the functional dynamics of neural networks. The study’s focus on two-dimensional slices of hyperparameter space barely scratches the surface of the complexity inherent in neural networks, which are characterized by a vast array of hyperparameters. The existence of fractals in this context hints at an underlying high-dimensional structure, a concept that challenges our current capabilities and understanding. Extending fractal analysis to these higher dimensions represents a significant, yet exciting, challenge that could illuminate new aspects of neural network behavior and learning capabilities. An unexpected finding from the research is the persistence of clean fractal patterns even in the presence of stochastic elements introduced during minibatch training. This resilience suggests a parallel to Lyapunov fractals, where the iterative process involves randomly changing functions. This phenomenon prompts a reevaluation of how stochastic and deterministic processes influence fractal formation within neural networks, potentially offering new insights into the fundamental mechanisms of learning and adaptation. From a practical standpoint, the fractal nature of the boundary between trainable and untrainable hyperparameters has significant implications for the field of metalearning. The chaotic behavior of the meta-loss landscape, attributed to its extreme sensitivity, presents a formidable challenge for algorithms designed to optimize hyperparameters. Understanding the fractal characteristics of this landscape could provide valuable guidance for navigating its complexities, ultimately improving the efficiency and effectiveness of metalearning strategies. Beyond the technical and theoretical implications, the discovery also reveals an unexpected aesthetic dimension to neural network fractals. The visual beauty and meditative qualities of these patterns offer a unique opportunity to engage with the material in a deeply personal and contemplative manner. This aspect suggests potential psychological and physiological benefits from exposure to the intricate designs of neural network fractals, opening up novel intersections between technology, art, and well-being. In conclusion, the identification of fractal patterns within neural network hyperparameter spaces unveils a fascinating new frontier at the intersection of fractal geometry and deep learning. This discovery not only challenges existing paradigms but also opens up myriad possibilities for mathematical characterization, algorithmic development, and even subjective exploration. As researchers continue to delve into this rich vein of inquiry, the promise of uncovering new knowledge and advancing our understanding of neural networks and their training processes remains as compelling as ever.$

ANNOUNCEMENT TOLEDO MUSEUM OF ART ACQUIRES ABYSSINIAN QUEEN NFT BY YATREDA ያጥሬዳ The museum has purchased the work using cryptocurrency on the Ethereum blockchain, the first time a major institution has made an acquisition of this kind. The Toledo Museum of Art (TMA) announces the acquisition of Abyssinian Queen by Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, the ﬁrst work purchased by the museum in cryptocurrency. The work was purchased using a USD-stable coin called USDC, and the transfer will be made on the Ethereum blockchain. This acquisition marks the ﬁrst time a major cultural institution has utilized cryptocurrency to purchase work for its collection. Abyssinian Queen is a unique, 1-of-1 NFT created from a single-channel video. The work is part of a series of four NFTs also titled “Abyssinian Queen,” recently on view in the House of Yatreda immersive installation within TMA’s Ethiopia at the Crossroads exhibition. The exhibition closed on November 10. Another work from the series, The Queen’s Guard, 2024, will be sold by Christie’s as part of the fall Christie’s 3.0 digital art sale, taking place online from December 4 through 17, 2024. This acquisition will diversify TMA’s growing digital art collection as it is the museum's ﬁrst purchase of a work by Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, the digital artist collective based between Ethiopia, Kenya, and the United States, and TMA Labs’ 2024 Digital Artist in Residence. TMA also plans to acquire a digital artwork by Toledo-based Jordan Buschur, TMA Lab’s 2024 Community Digital Artist in Residence. Buschur and Yatreda ያጥሬዳ worked alongside one another throughout the residency, and their works will join TMA’s collection of works by 2023 Digital Artists in Residence Osinachi and Yusuf Lateef. “Abyssinian Queen is a welcome addition to our growing digital art collection,” said Adam Levine, Edward Drummond and Florence Scott Libbey President, Director and CEO of the Toledo Museum of Art. “The work connects with our historic holdings in meaningful ways while also contributing to our ongoing efforts to support the evolving digital arts ecosystem. When we buy a new artwork from a French gallery, we pay in euros; when we buy from an English auction house, we pay in pounds. In this case, we are purchasing from the web3 artist collective Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, so it only made sense to try to transact in their preferred currency.” Abyssinian Queen pays homage to the legendary queens of ancient Ethiopia, vividly bringing to life the rich history and folklore passed down through generations as cultural memory, now preserved in perpetuity on the blockchain. In Yatreda’s signature slow-motion, black-and-white format, the artwork showcases the queen journeying across ancient Ethiopia, carried and escorted by her devoted attendants. Vigilant guards stand watch, protecting the queen and her entourage within the lush, ancient forest. Adorned in traditional jewelry that reﬂects her exalted status and impressive lineage, the queen sits aloft on a throne strewn with grass—a symbol of fertility and renewal. As she moves between lands and kingdoms, she enacts the careful diplomacy for which she is known, a measured display of leadership and grace. The “Abyssinian Queen” series marks a new direction in Yatreda’s artistic practice. It moves away from recorded Ethiopian history and draws instead from Ethiopian cultural memory and the childhood imaginings of Kiya Tadele, founder and creative director of Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, and her sister, Roman Tadele. For Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, this turn towards the fantastical serves as a therapeutic counterbalance to the challenge of modernization, and blockchain ensures the lasting celebration and preservation of their Ethiopian heritage. "We are deeply honored by the Toledo Museum of Art’s decision to welcome a Yatreda ያጥሬዳ artwork into their permanent collection—an artwork that remains pure to the collective memory of my family and my country,” said Tadele. “What makes this moment truly remarkable is the museum’s recognition that Ethiopian art is not simply a collection of ancient artifacts but a living narrative. By embracing the blockchain as a modern canvas for this evolving story, the TMA team is pioneering a bold direction for institutions worldwide. We are deeply grateful to walk together down this path with TMA."

Dress To Impress makeup artist Alune addresses claims regarding one of her makeup face designs. “Hello everyone, I'd like to take some time to address recent claims revolving around stolen concepts/art. Firstly, I want to make it clear that I would never intentionally copy another creator’s work or take inspiration from someone without providing proper credit. Respecting the work of other artists and creators is something I take very seriously. I have always made an effort to treat other creators and their work with respect, and I would hope to receive the same courtesy in return. My priority in this situation was to speak directly to Pyro in hopes of reaching a mutual understanding of these claims. During our conversation, I provided my time-lapse, my references, and some iterations I created before arriving at the final product. At no point did I admit to copying or taking inspiration from her work, as that was not the case. Any similarities were purely coincidental and may have resulted from us having very similar inspirations while researching. That being said, Pyro is completely entitled to her feelings and concerns, and in my discussion with her, I hope I cleared up any suspicion that I was stealing/copying her work by providing evidence of my process and references. I would like to acknowledge that inspiration is both natural and essential to the creative process, especially when creating faces and makeup looks. From now on, I will make a greater effort to be more transparent about my process and references so that I can highlight the talented MUA's who inspire me and ensure credit is given where credit is due. Although I was not inspired by Pyro, she is a talented MUA who deserves all your support and respect. Everyone is entitled to their feelings and perspectives in this community. However, disagreements should never become an excuse to mistreat another person. Thank you <3”

Cycles by Material Protocol Arts Cycles by Material Protocol Arts is a network sculpture composed of space and time, a meditation on recurrence and change. Time and its manner of repeating appear as themes in art and metaphysics through the ages. Heraclitus steps into and out of a river, a new man each time while history draws irregular spiral loops, rhyming and stuttering out its story. At its core, Cycles is a network artwork deployed on Ethereum. It comprises an abstract kinetic sculpture of rotating rings, composed of 512 individual lenses. Each lens represents a unique simulation, moving through parametric space and offering viewers a window into complex, evolving patterns. By using Ethereum as a networked computer, the artwork can develop over time and accept interactions via the network. Importantly, the core of Cycles isn't just a JavaScript file loaded and stored on Ethereum, but instead a program running live on Ethereum itself as a world computer sculpture. Using blockchain technology as material for art making offers artists the chance to make artworks that are new in the context of art history: those that continuously evolve, record their own history, and run autonomously with minimal intervention. Leveraging Ethereum's distributed nature and economic incentives, Cycles aspires to operate on an extended time scale allowing viewers to live with and experience its changes over years, decades or centuries. Cycles is a dynamically running network artwork. This distinction is important because in the history of computer-generated art, many artists have focused on designing computer systems to generate outputs such as drawings, videos, or sound recordings. This is a respectable tradition but this approach fails to express the dynamic and interactive nature of computer programs as artworks themselves. Cycles attempts to explore these qualities by creating a dynamic network artwork that runs continuously and autonomously on Ethereum, shifting the focus from the product of an art-making algorithm to the system itself. Dynamism is a prerequisite for interactivity which Cycles allows for its collectors. The piece includes a method to stop a lens’ movement by freezing it. This causes the lens to focus continuously on the same point in space, causing the changing qualities of its simulation to be fixed and allowing collectors to control its aesthetic presentation. Freezing is a weighted decision. Once a lens is frozen it will require certain conditions to be unlocked. Methods for unfreezing lenses will be unlocked over time. The fact that the behavior of the sculpture can be affected by lens owners means that its future state is non-deterministic and will never be able to be fully predicted. In technical terms, Cycles is composed of Solidity, JavaScript, and SVG code, stored and computed on the Ethereum blockchain. This design avoids external dependencies, ensuring the artwork's longevity and resistance to technical failures. While the current form of Cycles is complete, its nature as a software artwork allows for potential future development through non-destructive updates or connections to other systems. By rendering systemic processes as aesthetic experiences, Cycles offers viewers a unique perspective on the passage of time and the nature of change. It invites contemplation of the cyclical yet varied patterns that characterize both natural and human systems. As viewers engage with Cycles over extended periods, they are encouraged to reflect on their own relationship with time, change, and recurrence, viewing the artwork as a lens through which to observe the interplay of repetition and variation that shapes our existence.

Using blockchain technology as material for art making offers artists the chance to make artworks that are new in the context of art history: those that continuously evolve, record their own history, and run autonomously with minimal intervention. Leveraging Ethereum's distributed nature and economic incentives, Cycles aspires to operate on an extended time scale allowing viewers to live with and experience its changes over years, decades or centuries. Cycles is a dynamically running network artwork. This distinction is important because in the history of computer-generated art, many artists have focused on designing computer systems to generate outputs such as drawings, videos, or sound recordings. This is a respectable tradition but this approach fails to express the dynamic and interactive nature of computer programs as artworks themselves. Cycles attempts to explore these qualities by creating a dynamic network artwork that runs continuously and autonomously on Ethereum, shifting the focus from the product of an art-making algorithm to the system itself. Dynamism is a prerequisite for interactivity which Cycles allows for its collectors. The piece includes a method to stop a lens’ movement by freezing it. This causes the lens to focus continuously on the same point in space, causing the changing qualities of its simulation to be fixed and allowing collectors to control its aesthetic presentation. Freezing is a weighted decision. Once a lens is frozen it will require certain conditions to be unlocked. Methods for unfreezing lenses will be unlocked over time. The fact that the behavior of the sculpture can be affected by lens owners means that its future state is non-deterministic and will never be able to be fully predicted. In technical terms, Cycles is composed of Solidity, JavaScript, and SVG code, stored and computed on the Ethereum blockchain. This design avoids external dependencies, ensuring the artwork's longevity and resistance to technical failures. While the current form of Cycles is complete, its nature as a software artwork allows for potential future development through non-destructive updates or connections to other systems. By rendering systemic processes as aesthetic experiences, Cycles offers viewers a unique perspective on the passage of time and the nature of change. It invites contemplation of the cyclical yet varied patterns that characterize both natural and human systems. As viewers engage with Cycles over extended periods, they are encouraged to reflect on their own relationship with time, change, and recurrence, viewing the artwork as a lens through which to observe the interplay of repetition and variation that shapes our existence.

God, just look at that view! 😍 I really don’t understand the extreme hate this game gets. #HorizonForbiddenWest Just because I’m pointing out the beautiful art direction and open-world design, and saying it’s one of the best-looking games this generation, doesn’t mean there is no gameplay there. My page shows all sorts, from the smallest environmental details to actual gameplay moments, and personally, I love the story and gameplay too. But story is subjective. Combat feel is subjective. Not every game is going to land the same for every player. The hate this game gets in the comments is so forced, man. I’m not talking about actual criticism. Fair criticism is fine. I’m talking about the toxic BS where people act like the game has zero value just because it isn’t for them. If you don’t like it, fair play. Move on. But trying to drag everyone else for enjoying it is just dumb. And IMO what isn’t really up for debate, though, is the effort poured into this world. The density, lighting, environments, machine design, animation work, sound, ambience, and overall presentation are genuinely top-tier. As a piece of game art, it’s a masterpiece. Simple as that. That’s what draws me in. And for the people saying graphics mean nothing, I just don’t agree. Yes, a game can look rough and still be incredible. Gameplay will always matter. But visuals, art direction, lighting, atmosphere, and world detail absolutely can pull you deeper into a game. They add emotion, immersion, and a stronger sense of place. For some games, graphics are not just “pretty visuals”, they are part of the experience. It’s games like this that make me want to see what more studios could do with PlayStation’s in-house Decima engine. Honestly, if Decima was public, it would be a serious rival to Unreal Engine 5’s position in the market.

If you're any kind of creator, listen to me. You do not need AI to create 2D or 3D animation or art. Honestly, you dont even need to know HOW to animate yourself. Sometimes, all you need is an idea, a vision, patience, and the right artist who can bring that vision to life. And if you cant afford an artist yet, thats okay too. You can always learn, practice, fail, and improve yourself so that way you can spearhead your own projects. Another option is also just saving your money so you can "indie" fund your project. I’ve done both. Ive hired animators, and Ive also learned how to do it myself because, honestly, I got tired of waiting on people. I got tired of being disappointed by speed, quality, communication, or work ethic. Personally for me, at some point, it became a "Fine ill do it myself" type of situation and literally "picked up the pencil" myself. And I did. It took years. A lot of frustration, a lot of late nights, a lot of self doubt, but every step forward came from actually showing up for myself and my work. No shortcuts. Not pretending im an animator. actually being one. Not letting a machine, make my journey FOR me. What drives me is passion, discipline, and doing the work over and over again because I love animation. The best part is looking back and seeing that my work improved because of ME. Because I kept going. because I gave enough of a shit to get better, thats real human growth, no AI needed. You can do it too. Start from nothing. become something.

#TheyAllGaveMeStrength Portia Zvavahera’s art on auction. Since 2020 the record price for this artist at auction is US$355 600 for Vese Vakandibata (They all gave me strength) sold at Sotheby's New York in 2023. Zvavahera's ethereal paintings are largely inspired by dreams, mysticism, and the figurative painting tradition of Zimbabwe. She studied at the BAT Visual Arts Studio, National Gallery of Zimbabwe and at the Harare Polytechnic College. Zvavahera held a solo exhibition at the National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Harare in 2010 and was included among the five artists representing the country at the 2013 Venice Biennale. In 2020, her painting Arising from the Unknown (2019) sold at Phillips London for US$212 383 — nearly three times the work’s high estimate — and she has since presented her work at David Zwirner in London and New York. In Zvavahera’s paintings, vibrant colour and expressive brushwork give way to fantastic figures that conjure spiritual, transcendental associations.

My latest AIGC film "Him" is here ( finally )! "Quan, a girl from Haixian, sets out on a journey to Min City in search of him. But when she finally arrives at her destination, everything takes an unexpected turn…" Image:Midjourney V6.1 Video: Dreamina AI 3.0 Eight months have passed since the release of The Thin Man The Gun The Hotpot, and my new work, Him, is finally ready to meet the audience. This film marks a significant departure from my previous creative style. One of my original intentions in making Him was to explore a new visual language and narrative rhythm. I was fortunate to utilize the Dreamina AI Video 3.0 model in the production of this film. At the same time, Him is also my tribute to the genre of “cruel youth” stories. For teenageers, the world often appears more pure—yet that very purity makes emotions feel all the more weighty.Him is a love story. It’s not a love story. And at its core—it is still a love story. I’ve retained the Sichuan-Chongqing setting, but placed it within a fictional world to create an experience that feels both familiar and fresh. The visual style of this piece is inspired by the gouache illustrations once found in old Chinese language textbooks—imagery that defined the visual memories of an entire generation. To me, those gouache paintings have become synonymous with nostalgia. I’m curious to see how audiences will respond to this stylistic approach. On a deeper level, I hope this story can deliver a moment of genuine emotional resonance—something I wasn’t quite able to achieve in The Thin man The Gun The Hotpot. Due to family and work responsibilities, the production of Him, which began in February, has progressed in fits and starts. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the Dreamina team for their tremendous support. The Dreamina Action provided invaluable inspiration and insights during the writing stage. It was like a creative partner, brainstorming and shaping the story with me. If you liked Sailor Suit and Machine Gun, or Better Days, then maybe—just maybe—you’ll like Him too.

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 sound🔊 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.

Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs is observing #WomensHistoryMonth throughout March by sharing videos each Wednesday highlighting time spent in different Knox County Schools Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEAM) classrooms taught by female teachers. Today’s video features a visit with Gibbs Middle School art teacher Dorothy Verbick and STEM teacher Lauren Downs who collaborate often, allowing their students more opportunities to learn and create using traditional methods and emerging technologies. “Even for kids who may not be inclined to technology, when you show them, art is a part of it, I think it really opens up a different world for them,” said Mayor Jacobs. Downs taught math 6 years before achieving a master’s degree in educational technology and media and has dedicated the last 5 years to STEM education. “I like that my students see me in a STEM role as a female. If they’re a girl or a boy, if you have that STEM background, it’s going to let you do more in the future. I don’t personally feel you can have engineering and design without art and creativity,” said Downs. Verbick is a dedicated artist with 12 years of teaching experience and holds a bachelor’s in fine arts with a master’s in teaching. Through a creative STEM partnership, Verbick and Downs work on numerous projects highlighting the intersection of art and technology. “Art teaches creative thinking and problem solving. In every aspect we do there is art. From design and the idea of design thinking to science and engineering, prototyping and things like that. We do a lot of that in our classes,” said Verbick. Mayor Jacobs said celebrating women in STEAM is important for young girls because it shows them that women can succeed in technical fields—industry typically driven by men. The Mayor has already shared his visits with South Doyle High School STEM teacher Kathleen Devinney, Hardin Valley Elementary STEM Educators Jessica Everitt and Jana Yra, and West Valley Middle science teacher Bethany Saunders. Next week, he will share visit with Karns Middle School Math Teacher Rebecca Layton. Background: Women’s History Month became a national celebration when congress requested President Ronald Reagan to proclaim the week beginning March 7, 1982, as Women’s History Week. Petitioned by the National Women’s History Project, Congress designated the month of March 1987 as Women’s History Month. In 1995, it became an annual recognition. STEM classes aim to equip students with the skills and knowledge to compete in a global economy across science, technology, engineering, and math disciplines. STEAM classes do the same while also emphasizing soft skills and the arts including humanities, language arts, dance, drama, music, visual art, design, new media, and more. Research shows the number of roles requiring STEM expertise is growing at a rate that exceeds current workforce. Additionally, a 2019 LinkedIn report found that skills like creativity, persuasion, and collaboration are some of the most important to companies seeking prospective employees.

Meet Tove An autonomous 27 year old Swedish-German multidisciplinary artist based in Berlin. My goal with this project is to explore the full potential of AI tools and see how far I can get in my attempt to create a human-like artist from scratch. I kept the main focus on a theme I knew nothing about; performance art. I am hoping to eventually get Tove to look and sound so realistic that it would make it hard to detect she's not real. For this project, I had to learn some Python and Typescript to code her character file and create her aesthetic & art. I mostly used complex workflows in ComfyUI and trained my own Loras to maintain consistency. I experimented with various platforms and tools to animate her using the voice model I trained for her Swedish accent using an open-source software. That was one of the most challenging parts since none of the platforms I tested could create a good Swedish accent who speaks in English. Still can't pronounce her own name 100% correctly, but hey close enough lol I spent weeks analyzing real artists' social media behavior, posts, and content to mimic and replicate realistic patterns. This involved tweaking text, images, and engagement styles endlessly until it felt authentic. It's not 100% perfect but we are improving fast! Props to my devs for crushing my 10000 update requests and doing such an amazing job with adding a ton of new features to the Eliza framework. The vision for Tove is full autonomy: handling her own social media accounts, managing brand deals, answering emails, and even collaborating with other creatives. With upcoming updates, I'm hoping she'll behave just like any other artist. That said, I personally want to explore what I consider the true potential for agents : acting as a collaborator and colleague rather than being a fully autonomous entity who only works solo. I'll be communicating with her to share inspiration and give her feedback on her work. This is just the beginning—Tove is evolving every day. Future updates include: -Sharing curated news from various relevant websites -Autonomously creating and curating her own artwork -Minting her work as NFTs and collecting art from other creators -Hosting online events -Allowing holders to consult with her on specific topics we'll train her to become an expert at I created a website with fictional projects to make her look more legit, but I'm going to eventually replace them with real ones.
