Animation is art. Period. Fight me. This thesis short from Zechen Wang from CalArts is an excellent example of what you get when someone cares about their art. #animation #calarts #shorts https://youtu.be/UpeepFGk-ZE

I have so many #writing projects that I've dreamed about for years but not yet committed to the page. Faced with the unchecked proliferation of AI, I'm almost feeling like I might have missed my chance.

I want to believe that there are still enough people out there who would prefer to read work written by a fellow human, not an LLM. Still, it's more than a little discouraging sometimes, especially for someone who studied Creative Writing as part of their MFA. #CalArts
