AI | Holograms | Fractals



Hi there class,

Today I want to share with you a broad range of resources, things, and ideas.

First, here is a great article about Elon Musks company Neuralink.

This is a very well written piece and also quite long of an article. The first time I came across this I spent about 3 hours going in on it.

Essentially this is brain machine interface technology. The foundation needed for cyborgs.

This next link here is about holograms and the ability to interact with people who are no longer alive.

Artificial intelligence to preserve history in a personality...

Now here is something silly using a rudimentary form of this technology. Kinda strange, but also interesting. Will probably be a good marker as the beginning of this technology.






Okay, carrying on now...

I imagine someday this breathing app idea will be linked with artificial intelligence.

Now this seems relevant to the topic... Black Mirror... a tv show ... but this scene specifically...



This book is relevant to this conversation too.... FEED by MT Anderson. The "1984" of this generation. 1984 is a book by George Orwell.


Okay, heres a curve ball... This is essentially the organic origins of visual effects and the ability for computers to create stunning real life imagery from fractal geometry.

Visual effects studios...

Visual effects software...


Flame is amazing and does so much more than After Effects can. If I could go back in time I would start to learn Flame, and Smoke at a young age.


And last but not least...

A great piece about visual story telling...
