ambient hyperreality - 2050

For those who encounter her – the artists dreaming of capturing her effervescence on canvas, the poets seeking to contain her essence in couplets – find the task as fleeting as ensnaring sunlight. The tapestry of our society is vivid, indeed, yet her presence is the color that gives it life, and to be without her warmth is to know the image incomplete and cold.

- Viktor Recel on his Attractive Socialite Wife

Always loved this piece, the bot was singing when it rendered it.

2050 is when Starholder really starts to separate itself from everything that came before. Gud year.

Been a minute since I made some music. Love the beat on this.

Alright gang, I've tossed Zombie Slurpies on /crate.

It's a banger of a track and now an ERC-20 on a bonding curve.

Let's have some fun with programmable media. Will drop ATTN tokens on anyone who collects as well.

I've been a bit off my creative game between travel/life/punishing allergies. Looking to get past that and back into the groove.

On tap:

1. /crate we'll toss some of our music on there once the upload feature is live.

2. Vector Sect - I got a juicy backstory & new intro drafted, need to rewrite & we'll reboot that.

Think I have the necessary backstory in place to move forward with Vector Sect, assuming that space cannibalism is not a bridge too far...

I am devoid of novel ideas atm. There is no publishing schedule this week, I love you.

As someone who is not productivity/hustle aligned with the mission, this place is feeling very Slack/LinkedIn lately. It's just got a big decentralized office vibe. The culture stuff is water cooler depth. The minting/frames call to actions has a fun run/buy girl scout cookies/donate to united way vibe. Just work mood.

This week's article focuses on product design, the role opinion plays in design (when to have & not have opinions) and finally zooms in on a very opinionated approach called airlocked economies and why consumer crypto should strongly consider it:

Calling an audible on my article topic to make the case for airlocked economies in crypto (esp consumer)

just made some 10/10 screensaver art @websim_ai
may have to mint this:

Alright fam, the first chapter of Vector Sect is now up for your reading enjoyment.

https://paragraph.xyz/@starholder/vector-sect-chapter-1

Seems like sufficiently unclaimed ground to build a plot around.

Publishing schedule for next week:

Mon or Tues - Chapter 1 of Vector Sect (a WIP novel)

Thurs or Fri - An article/essay once I figure out what I want to write about. I got nothing on my mind atm, but that should change.

The diner stood on the edge of the night. Fog cast heavy in the lights of a pickup truck, a stream of data diffusing in their gaze as the scene rendered into focus. It was 1999 in Starholder, and the sky was so low it could smother dreams before they had a chance to die.

Aftermath.

17 year old victim
15 year old killer
2 lives
1 reduced to memorial

A couple examples of an emerging theater of manipulation, vector space, popping up on my timeline today.

This is something I wrapped my head around in February and am geeked out on. These aren't just AI's, there's an entire digital topography emerging, and what Vector Sect (the novel I just started) will explore.

Lord, I was born a rambling man.

Thoughts on crypto’s interregnum as I’m trying to make a living and doing the best I can.

Let's look at why retail is not getting rich in today's article 🧵

Tomorrow's essay today, the perks of being in my channel. This one is a real ramble on the state of crypto. Buckle up.

Our first "art" drop minted out in a week 😎

Distributed 565,000 ATTN to minters (5k per piece). Details below.

Let's work on minting these out, so I can give ATTN tokens to holders. 76 of 120 in the set already gone. Glitch Brick has 4 more free editions left. Do it internets.
