Throwback: my interview with Honey Dijon
(Huff Post - 2017)

What started as a piece about a Smirnoff inclusivity campaign turned in to a deep dive on identity, community, and creativity.

Some many good quotes in here and a playlist of dancefloor classics

At ADE this year Honey Dijon plays an invitation-only listening session presented by DJ Kicks and Audio Obscura this Friday 18 October.

One of my interview questions which probably still stands in 2024 -

“If you only had $100 to spend on marketing an artist, what would you do?”

Meindert: If you have a limited budget, it means you have to be creative. You have to invest more in yourself, and what you can think up. I would suggest organizing a remix competition, or doing a pop up show, to get more leverage.

btw - thinking to move these to t2world.lens because the ads are onbnoxious on the HP site

Can’t believe I wrote 150+
pieces about Dance Music.

Gonna share some of my favorites to celebrate ADE this week 🇳🇱 🪩 🎪

One of my first big interviews
was techno pioneer Jeff Mills - my first ADE he did a live production session out the Rembrandt house - https://www.huffpost.com/entry/interview-jeff-mills-the_b_8639948

Excited to be back at ADE this year as a founder⚡️

This week I built the POC for an activation we are trying to add to an amazing event happening during @devcon. It's an iteration of the co/VJ bot we made that allows for guests to co-create the visuals for the night. We tested this recently in Amsterdam w @ufoclub.eth and @fermi which included a seamless minting experience on base. If anyone is interested in partnering to help make this happen feel free to reach out.

Gödis secured - ADE lets do this

Feel like this should allow me to cast in /base-builds and still qualify for rounds no?

Going on week 4 or 5 where my baseness is being tested but I remain based yet confused

Very cool story + breakdown

Creative direction and software showreel for ORIGIN STØRIES and vpmstudio.lens - F/W ‘24

First @hypersub drop incoming very 🔜

Sharing some stats from our @livepeer AI demo today. Very insightful in terms of needs for better visual solutions and also the lack of language skills to communicate with LLMs (Large Language Models).

"70% of creatives say creating high-quality visuals is expensive and time-consuming" - MiDiA

"Only 27% of high school seniors in the US performed at or above the proficiency level in writing" (2019) - National Association of Education Progress)

"120,000 new songs uploaded to streaming every day (Mixmag). If each has just one piece of visual content, that's 43,800,000 pieces of original visual content that needs to be made per year."

That’s a wrap on three months intensive building with Livepeer AI. Our deck and link to VPM
Is here https://originstories.live/livepeer-demo

One of our featured stats - only 27% of high school seniors performed at or above the proficient level in written communication.

These are large language models and on top of this you also need to understand cinematic and storytelling primitives.

If it can’t make the lives of creatives more efficient how is it going to replace them?
