blackmirrorclub.com Tonight I looked into the @blackmirror_xp and @KorProtocol and it looks so cool so I totally degened into the Kor founders pass x BM Smile pass. I discovered all this because in the Deadfellaz discord they were running a giveaway for some $Mirror airdrop. Quick explaination: Black Mirror Club is an officially licensed Web3 project inspired by the Netflix anthology series Black Mirror, transforming its dystopian themes into an interactive crypto game where users' social med...

I worked with Grok on a new artist bio all day today by having it research and research some more to find everything it could to put together a comprehensive artist bio. This was a process, but not as painful as it usually is without ai which it would have taken me weeks to do this update probably instead of one stoned saturday night. It also has given me the idea to create an AI lore bot that continually collects what I have done to keep information current for me and anyone interested to kn...

As an artist, the study of systems, chaos and noise has been a lifelong passion of mine from staring at TV static to helping rain drain from a puddle in a dirt road, while some may think is sad for a child to be playing as games both taught me how all form comes from randomness. The collective human conciousness via data inputs that AI navigates is another static filled tv. Each datapoint meaningless and chaotic waiting for someone or thing to give it form. It doesn't stop being static, just ...

Hello everyone, it's Empress Trash, sharing some thoughts on my new project: #summerweenI've created this album completely in SunoAI. It's a collection of glitch-noise electronic tracks that dive into the ongoing mourning and rage from the constant violence around us in the world. This album overall explores how that violence breaks apart our identities as the grind persists leaving parts of ourselves behind. Using AI felt essential here. I often see it as a symbol of the biased systems that ...

I LOVE THE REMIXING FEATURE. This is such a clever and novel way to share longform thoughts and ideas and spur conversations, like a quote tweet on steroids. Good ideas don't happen in a bubble and to feel emboldened and rewarded to build on top of others ideas is a net positive. It's like a dream blunt rotation where we can keep building off eachother. As I dive deeper into this mechanic I wonder, can I remix from a remix? In an infinite chain of remixes? Lets go check. .... ... YES YOU CAN ...

After reading through jacob's post, I decided to try pairing a writing to my creator coin. I think this is a great system and help bring together some fragments that start to happen with identity. Like I also have a coin with retake.tv and echow.xyz which I wish I could pair to my zora token somehow. Beyond other coins, I really want this simple system on something like shopify too where I can pair my coin to a piece of merch or print or anything I'm selling and a designated portion of the sa...

GM ~ All weekend I was grinding AI training for fun + profit, using my paintings to build models that feel like my paintings. Infinite paintings unlocked. Friday I dropped the Liquid Glitch: Renaissance model on By Sat/Sun I was deep in crafting a new, still unnamed, collage style pulling Bimbocore maximalist meme prompts + fusing them with my painting moodboard. I was bouncing between microsoft copilot, midjourney, title.xyz and a little bit of grok (image generation there I'm still not real...

Hey all - it's been another busy couple weeks. Between training my midjourney x titles and making a ton of art, I have been doing the grind. Let's dive right in. ~~~EMPRESSTRASH.COM // shopify store with all the links, physical prints, + moreOver the last couple weeks I have rebuilt my website from scratch after glitch.com decided to shut down killing my build there and not being easy to migrate as they claimed. It left me in a limbo for a couple months of where do I build my website? I was l...

Light and dark do balance each other and while because of generational propaganda dark has been demonized, the light can be just as unforgiving if not more cruel than what the shadows hide sometimes. The darkness is just an allegory for the unknown, humanity's greatest fear which we are cursed with insatiable curiosity to constantly confront. While there are horrors beyond comprehension in the unknown, there is also in the shadows the most vulnerable precious parts. They hide there not becaus...
