Hi stream.

Hello. Hello.

Well, hello Miss Jory, how are you?

I'm good.

It's funny you bubbles at the same time I was thinking bubbles.

Yeah, a little more dimensionality to the front.

Let's have you just invented a stricter?

I'm sorry. You were breaking up. What?

Have you invented a stream catch or fish?

Yeah.

Kind of, I think. So I got some cool ones going on.

Do you?

I love the vibrancy of the colours and everything. It's really cool.

Thanks. Do you like the overall image?

Yeah, the composition's great. Just maybe few bubbles around the outside, the little ones.

I was thinking more like bubbles coming out of the fish's mouths and going up, but but you know, more foreground a little.

Yeah.

Cool.

Like the fish are like the two fish are. Don't know. I'm playing around the icons and different stuff in the background. I've got tonnes of different things I could add. I've got reefs and different things I'm doing so.

Yeah, it's wicked.

Thank you.

Very productive. He'd been a lot more. He had a lot more interesting day than I have. I've been going through the artists.

Ohh for the winter exhibition.

Yeah.

First car, I'd narrowed it down. I think it was 107.

Now I've gone through to choose actual entities that are available and I'm down to 56 people now.

Hmm.

Wow, that's a lot.

That's a big drop, isn't it? But.

Yeah, that's a lot of administrative work. Why isn't miss doing this?

Mesh has I don't know if he's got a cold man flu or COVID, but he's sneezing, so I'm staying well away.

A cold man flu.

Ohh.

He's either got a cold or he has man flu.

Man blue.

Which man flu is very different to a cold?

Um and or he's got COVID, but I'm pretty sure he's probably just got a cold.

Ohh.

So is he just a ghost phone today?

At the moment he's 2 ghost phones because they're both in here and he's in the kitchen.

For some reason, when he has a cold, he's even more hungry and just dipping into what he can find in the kitchen.

With him.

Uh, yeah.

So I'm sorry you had to go through all that, but it is part of the process.

It's part of the process. Yeah, but the process? Oh my God, you're making me speak American. Process.

It's part of the process, um.

Process.

Hmm.

Yeah, I I just, I don't know. I just get frustrated when you go through and actually you think Ohh, but shall I put them in or not? It's very hard to make a decision because you there's an artist behind it and it's their work, but you want it to be a certain calibre in the exhibition.

Ohh, yeah. I mean we got thousands of entries for the Big Kahuna awards back in the 90s and to 2000. And yeah, it was a lot to judge all those. And we had a big panel. I got people together, you know, my friend, friends of mine from the industry and whatever who could come into San Francisco office and judge, you know, like for.

Nathan Nights at a time and you know, yeah, it's a lot of work, a lot of work.

Yep, but in a way I'd rather go with less artists but have better work.

Hmm, that's what's cute. That's what curation is all about.

Yeah, exactly. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it, I guess.

No.

So have you ever seen anything like this in your travels, these kinds of this kind of image that I sent you? I mean, I I'm not saying it's the most unique thing in the world, but I mean out out there in the AIR world and whatever does this.

Have you seen anything like this?

Um, not really, no. There's a lot more arts applications this time, which is interesting.

There's a lot, quite, quite a lot that are using AI and they're not doing anything else to it, so you kind of spot them a mile off.

Hmm.

I haven't seen any subject matter like yours.

But.

Yeah.

I'm trying to be different. I mean, it's it's a challenge, you know? I mean really, it's like, you know, the I art stuff is like, okay, give me all that crap and I'll put it together. Thank you very much. But, you know, it's when you get to the final image and stuff, you want it to be different than stuff you've seen out there, because why not, right?

Yeah, absolutely. And at the end of the day, it's showing it's um, in the hands of an artist, how much better the imagery gets.

Um, you know, it's like you you're putting it through so many processing so that you end up with a perfect image at the end, whereas a lot of people aren't doing that and you know you're doing editing to it.

So.

Yeah, this one's nothing. This is only about 50 layers.

Right now.

But even 50, you know, some people are doing one and it's.

Yeah.

How many layers are you working? Layers. What's a layer?

Thank you dear, I appreciate it.

Yeah, exactly. Exactly. I I was reading. But yeah, your your composition, your your work is outstanding. To be honest, I'm amazed you're not doing NFT as you should be.

Why? That's why I'm, you know, everybody, everybody has confidence issues, and I'm very confident in my design and graphic skills and illustration skills and that kind of thing. But when it comes to selling fine art, I've never done it. So I've gotten enough under my belt right now where I'm starting to put the website together and I'll launch it and see what happens. But I'm confident enough that I'm doing different enough stuff that I'm not going to be just another also ran.

Yeah, absolutely. You've got a very, very good eye for what is, um, you know, colour and balance and all the usual things that go with someone who's got graphic design training.

Ohh, I'd blush if I could. Thank you.

No, but it's true. I've, I've noticed that because you you've sent me quite a few images overtime. And yeah, I I I love all your work. I think it's it's great. Really cool.

Thank you. You know, I haven't seen hardly any of your fine artwork.

Haha, like you, I've. Well, I've never sold a painting. Misha's always done it. He does that.

I I just.

So it's through some secret Arabic network where they trade back and forth in their secret banking system and they buy your paintings.

Yeah, yeah. Something I don't know, but I I just, I can talk about it and I can show people, but I I can't sell it for toffee. It's just not what I do. And I always think people are gonna bring them back as well.

Well, I know. I know how it is. I mean it's, you know, I I'm not, I'm not the kind of artist that when I finish something I'm like ohh, it's my baby. I can't sell it. I can't let it go. I'm not that way. But it's it is kind of weird selling your art and letting it go. It's it's a process, you know, that you have to get used to. And I think coming from a commercial world, it's much easier for me to do that because I'm very much in like I know I can tend to overwork stuff. So especially with the f

I think it's done. So that's about you know.

Well, not not including the A I work. It's about five hours worth of Photoshop work. No, not even that. Maybe 3.

Yeah, but it shows, you know, it shows that that's had a lot of work post process done to it.

Thank you. And that's a lot of AI artwork too, to get those fishes looking the way they are.

Yeah, sure. I know. So much clarity and in what you do, it's just brilliant. Love it.

I can't wait to upgrade it and then what I'm gonna do is actually to finish it off actually I'm going to put some more texture and and Sheen and different things on those fish scales because I have to flatten them and you know they're like four or five layers right now and then flatten those and then put some more Sheen and fish scale kind of effects on it and smooth all that colour. You know that that you know that kind of.

That kind of looked at a I art has what it's trying to do a pattern, but it kind of fails and it code goes between like a colour blend and a pattern and it doesn't look right. Does that make sense?

It does, yeah.

Yeah, so you kinda just takes, you know, the smudge brush. And there's what's that? What's that Photoshop brush I love now he's not the history brush, it's the mixer brush.

Yeah.

Make it look.

You know, take that mixer brush and bring it in there. Just miss around a bunch of stuff and make it look a lot better and more painterly.

Yeah, definitely. Have you ever played with Procreate?

Hmm.

Ohh love it. Fantastic app.

Yeah.

It's it's cool. And did you know you can pull in a 3D model to it?

Just.

Yes I know I I haven't figured out the whole getting it in and getting it out part yet. Then the other thing too I've I was doing that was stupid is I'm sitting here uprising. I was sitting here uprising all. I'm already uprising the images in the A I art software to like you know usually 2048 by something or whatever. And so I was up six sexing them up and Topaz gigapixel just to get big high res images and cut them out and stuff. And I'm like no this is the way to work. I'll take those images

Then I'll blow them up. And if I have to do touch ups and everything after that, then cause it's like the, the, the uprise stuff is so great now you know that there's no point in not working in a little bit lower resolution so that you can really work a lot faster, you know?

Yeah, definitely. Um, I I would love to see some a I are printed and on some of the, you know, proper fine art paper.

Um.

We're going to get there, yeah. We're gonna contact companies and do prints and light boxes and all kinds of stuff.

Yeah, definitely because the some of the digital prints have such vibrancy to them it they they would look stunning and if you did it on a textured paper as well, you know, really nice heavy, heavy Fine Arts stock would be really cool.

Do it.

Ohh, absolutely. It's funny too, because I've got this like Cold Sea kind of thing with the fish and everything going on and the water and all the the splash effects I'm doing. And it's really actually kind of appropriate. I might take one of the best ones, mint it to the blockchain, print it and send it to my friend who is a director at Apple, because he's all about saving the oceans. So I'm like, yeah, there's my end because I haven't talked to him and, you know, 717 years probably, but it's w

Yeah, he sounds like a cool guy.

At new tech. And then he helped found Lexology and then you know, made a lot of money and went out and saved the Pacific Ocean kind of thing. And so now he's a director at Apple. Cool guy. My wife is in love with him. He's.

No, he he's you'd think he was dreamy. He is. He's like, I'm not gay at all, but he's a good looking dude.

Is he chiselled?

Hmm.

Ohh, very chiselled very.

Very Greek God chiselled.

Okay, so he was designed then.

He was designed in a laboratory, for sure.

Peace.

Brilliant. Let me just say hi to canal and hi to PT and Kanako listening in. Hey everyone, welcome. Miss told me I'm not a very good host because I didn't say hello to everyone, so I've done that now.

Hey.

Hi Jodie. Hi everyone.

How is Miss WhatsApp, WhatsApp?

What's up? What's up? Mitch has a cold.

Okay.

Plus 10.

Say he'll be. He's just taking the dog out. He's he's here. How are you, canal? What's what's up? What you up to?

Ohh, I was just hopping onto spaces and just seeing what to do for a space to space. Actually we had a lot of good spaces early in the evening, so yeah, was happy for that, yeah.

Excellent. And how's life in the NFT world for you?

Ohh, I just minded 3 pieces on object to finish their collection and it's going pretty good a happy for it. I'm going to meet soon on own origin and Oasis.

So I'm just taking the time maybe next year or maybe end of this year?

But yeah, just taking it slow and to kind of sell what I already have.

And then kind of meant more pieces, yeah.

Yeah.

Excellent. Sounds cool. Sounds cool. Do you wanna be in the next show? I'm just doing the winter one at the moment.

Ohh okay. I'll show some abstract then, this time not figurative.

Yeah.

Yeah, love your absolute dream canal. Just some really interesting abstract work where he mixes different natural substances to create his colours.

Like, get some, really.

Yeah, go for it. Pencil thing he gets.

Yeah. Should I? Should I pin up my recent drop? You want to see? You want to decipher something for me? What do you think?

Uh, we could try.

So this is one of the paintings I did.

Wow, that's cool. How did you get the texture?

So it's a mixture of the paper is like, um, like hard paper, like card paper.

And it's a coated with alcohol ink and a bit of grounded Chuck powder mixed with glue. And there the glue kind of glue and the chalk powder and the alcohol kind of reacts to create this sort of very dusty sort of undertone. And then I've used a bit of chalk powder like like a popple and pink chalk powders to kind of brush it off, then used another fishnets, which is actually the grocery net. So basically these are all discarded.

And humble my items.

Yeah, interesting.

And you know, then the red is actually as prepaid. So I never really use prepaid, but I wanted to try it. So yeah.

Wow, looks cool. I used that netting um on a painting that I did called deep Blue, which is like it was like a memory from scuba diving.

And they used all the netting on it, says semi 3D scanned. It looked really cool on a print.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It does have that sort of eroded sort of sense to it because of the fishnets also. I think it's also kind of references the.

I didn't say that. The the sewage and then the contamination of the world and the water bodies. So yeah.

Yeah, it's really cool.

You know where my head is? I was kind of thinking about like how I would be doing that texture and bump mapping and stuff in ZBrush with alphas.

Yeah, I know you get you get your mind going, doesn't it?

Yeah, texture like that's, you know, used to be a lot harder to do, but you know, it's still not easy to do. It should build up nice, you know, texture and 3D like that, but it was the brush alphas and stuff. You can kind of do some really cool stuff pretty quick now.

Yeah.

Yeah, and also in um, which was a forger, you can upload black and white graphics and you can convert them into a stamp, so you make a brush out of it.

Yep. Have you done that?

Yeah, I have. I've done it with my signature and and when I did the bit.

You know, cool. Me too. That's exactly what you are. No way. Seriously.

Yeah.

That is so funny. I extruded my signature in 3D, ended it in nomad sculpt too.

That's hilarious, say twins.

Ohh my Lord, that's weird. That's just weird.

That is weird. And also when I did the Bitcoin shoes with Mr C, He designed a Bitcoin logo that ended up being stamped all over the shoes, so that was quite cool.

Fun 3D work. Look the host is gonna speak. Ohh.

Hello everyone, how are you?

Ohh no we have a echo missions here big Pappu. Hello Miss, how are you?

I heard you have the man flu.

I'm good. Is there an echo now?

No, you're right.

You have the man blue.

That's because I turned my phone down. I didn't know he was going to speak.

Uh.

You have manflu.

How are you gonna?

It's better than poo man blue.

Hello miss. How are you?

Father told my friend. I like your new painting.

Like the colours.

Ohh, thank you. How have you been?

Not bad at all, man. Not bad. Still surviving, still building, still living.

Still doing spaces.

Great, great. Are you dancing a lot?

Of course, every day.

That's amazing. Also, it's holiday season, so of course you have to dance.

No, it's not.

No, it's not the holidays in the UK.

Really. Why?

It's just normal time of year. It's November, we our holidays are Christmas. The next one.

Ohh OK hmm.

We don't do Thanksgiving here.

Ohh.

Hey.

Hey, Beckman.

Mesh.

That you miss.

Rickman.

Hello.

Hello Stream, how are you?

Ohh.

Are you on cold medicine? Are you on cold medicine? You poor boy.

What do you mean?

What do you mean I just a couple of minutes in ibuprofen?

Ibuprofen is is that does that whack you out?

That's good. I'm. I'm good, I'm good.

Okay, you wanna see a picture?

Yeah, go for it.

Alright, I'll be on here.

I don't know if he's really ill or not, it's just an excuse to watch the football all day long.

I'd rather.

No, I should I just go up in the morning?

Go and do hard labour, then watch sports.

I I just got up in the morning with the streaming nose.

And couple of sneezes.

Did you say it's streaming nose?

And yes, my yeah.

Cross streaming.

Yeah, that's reminded me of stream catching.

Well, I'm not catching that. I'm not catching that stream. I'm not catching that one, buddy.

Ha ha ha ha.

Let's change that you you know you can't change stream.

Not any stream.

So don't call yourself Steve catcher then.

Well, only the right streams. That's the whole point.

So say the right string catcher.

Ibuprofen's making you silly. What do you think about that picture?

I don't see it.

You don't see it?

Ohh wow.

I think you need to cheque your ohh, he's got it.

Just cheque your wow. What the hell did you take, bro? Dayquil and Nyquil mixed together. Little lean. Put some Mountain Dew in it.

That's alright. That's good. That's not bad at all.

Well, thank you.

Who did it in amateur artist?

Yeah, doctor Wu.

No, it's beautiful, man.

It's really clever. You can why don't you put it up up there?

No, it's not published. It's not minted.

It's alright. You can put it out there.

Yeah.

Saudi hardly anyone would would do the same.

I don't want anybody it's I'm putting it under a different identity.

Uh, huh.

I'm going to start from zero.

Let's see what happens.

They test things.

Yeah.

How are you PT?

Ptn ft are you there?

And.

They're unpredictable.

And canaco?

Let's retweet.

In the room to get some more people I know.

So did I.

I already retweeted the room. I retweet. I'm the one retweet.

Now I'm talking to canal and Canaco and PT and salsa mission.

Yeah, pull your way, people.

Ohh stream. I wish he has one ready. By the time I make this show live I could put you in it.

When are you making the show alive?

Uh, I've got to do all the work for it, so.

Maybe.

I don't know yet. I was looking towards sort of like just after Thanksgiving, but I might push it on a week.

December 24th.

No, no, no. It's not gonna, it's not gonna be that bad. I've chosen. I've done all the artists now say it's just a case of building it.

Yeah, I don't wanna put out anything like just put out a couple of mints. When I do it, I'm gonna put out like multiple images on different blockchains on the website ready to go, and then dump things on Twitter and start marketing it and see what happens.

Do it right, have some merge other things, you know.

Can we put it coming soon one?

Yeah.

Hmm.

Maybe you have a space and you say, coming soon one yeah. My God, great minds think alike.

I'll be in, I'll be in the Spring collection. How about that?

I might not do spring one.

This is the last one get in now.

Not of course I can put you in the spring one.

I I want I want other artists to get their you know time too and everything. I'm not thankfully I'm not you know hurting for money so there's a lot of other people that could sell art right now that would be in you know that would be better for them to sell their art. So I'm not I I I've I've been grateful and blessed to be able to be where I am to work as hard as I have and you know learn the things I have and I'm okay right now with just waiting and watching and I could have made a lot probabl

Are just like, I just push stuff out. But that's not what we're about. We want a full holistic solution for everything we do, you know, and that that takes time. Especially when you're working, you're either solo or just a couple other people. It takes time.

Yeah, I'm the same. I don't wanna just get it out there, I wanna do it all properly.

Then one day.

There's a lot to it. I think that that's the biggest thing that people don't understand when they start to dive into something. I'm going to make a website or I'm going to do this. I'm going to do whatever there are 40 or 100 or however many variables that they're not factoring in that they're going to have to deal with.

Along the way to in order to to achieve success and it just it blows deadlines out of the water and if you start giving deadlines for yourself about things you have no idea of really what how to do it, you're just going to stress yourself out.

Absolutely. It's and it's not easy. And I think as well, artists coming into the space, just as you make a decision, you go into a space and someone will say something like ohh, you should be on foundation and then that completely throws you. You have to start all over again.

And it's just a bit of a funny circle, really.

I've watched people do it, you know who did it, where he was moving things up, a voice over to foundation and all kinds of stuff. And it's like.

You know, it's so funny because I'm what is a marketplace? It's a website. I mean that we are talking about a website running on a server serving images, saying buy then buy this. It's web 2 all the way.

So you know, it's gotta connect wallet feature and it's got other things that are more web three if you wanna call it that. But you know, we're talking about websites. Anybody can build a marketplace. Multiple people have. Some have been more popular than others. They all suck. They're terms of service are terrible. We own your stuff into perpetuity kind of crap, you know?

I'm not thrilled with what I see, so I want to make money. Sure, I'd like to sell some art and I'm going to go out there. I'm going to sell on Earth and sell maybe on a couple of chains to, you know, see what happens just to test. But whatever money I make in that crypto is coming right on. Go straight into Fiat.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Good idea.

Where is down, isn't it?

Huh.

If Earth is down, isn't it?

Yeah, let me see what's at at the moment.

Ohh Lord I can't even cheque my frigging wallets cause they're all just enter your secret key. You upgraded your phone dumbass.

Okay.

Ohh.

Aces 1113.74.

Yep.

Really 111? Ohh it's 111. Holy crap it was 111. Yeah there it is. Ohh 1111 when I checked it. It's 1111. Holy crap. I happens to me all the time.

Yep.

Amazing.

This is probably the second or third one today.

I just don't even keep track anymore. Six or seven times a day. Easy.

Yeah, I I do too.

Crazy.

And then variations thereof, 1101.

Hmm.

You know one.

Number money, different things. It's crazy.

But you can't cheat by looking at your phone saying 111 and then go to your watch and your computer.

No, I don't do that. But but it is funny. It's like, I mean the at the weirdest, I don't sit there and look at my phone all the time to see the time, you know, and I'll be working and doing my thing. All of a sudden I'll look at the all, look at the phone or or something will come up on the phone buzz or something and I'll look into be 111 or 1111. And I'm like all the time. It's like a staple in my life. And same with stream queen. Same thing happens to her.

So I'm trying to buy a 4090 and a can't.

A 4090 Watt.

A 4090 Watt stream.

I think you're rugged.

No, I didn't rug this stupid Airpod died on me. And you know what? The Airpods Pro don't last as long with the 14 Pro Max as they did with the 13 Pro Max.

Yeah.

That's interesting.

Hmm and mine are fairly new so.

Less than a year old, anyway.

Ohh and I.

I had a Mac Mini died today, 10 years old.

Ohh wow.

I know I was sad. Core I-716 gigs of RAM put put an extra hard drive in it and everything, so I gotta rip it all apart. I've got so many pieces of cool hardware and metal and different stuff. I want to make a cool sculpture out of it, but I can't figure out what to do.

I got RAM chips and motherboards and components. All kinds of cool stuff.

Let me guess, culture out of there.

Do you know it's funny you should say a jar of scalpel blades. So all the scalpel blades I've used over the last 25 years, I've just put in a jar.

Ohh you can make something sharp with that.

I know I put some on a painting once but never finished it.

Hmm.

I've just got these little jars that I just keep them morning.

Couple blades? Yeah, exactly like exacto blades.

Um.

Or actually scalpel blades.

You know, I use actual scalpel ones.

Ohh nice.

Ohh no they they're better for cutting.

I use those for plant horticulture.

Okay, never sort of that good idea.

Well, for cloning and stuff, it's very you know, you want to really just clean the cut as possible, so now you're scalpers.

Interesting.

Interesting.

Use them for cleaning what?

Cloning plants.

And people.

What plant? Dining stream?

10 people.

What?

But.

How many stream capture stream Queen did you make?

She wants two more at once.

So 3 total.

So you want two more or she wants two more?

Yes.

No woman wants two more of herself.

Trust me, you know me. She does.

Yeah.

No, no, no, no, no. No woman wants to be on her own. She wants many men, but not.

But not too many women.

Huh.

I think it's the ibuprofen. It's gone to his head.

What are you talking about, fish?

Such a lightweight.

I, said the woman. If you say cloning, she wouldn't clone herself, she would clone the man.

Um.

The man who cloned the woman.

Okay.

No, I'd clone a couple of copies of me for sure.

I could use the help.

Even if they were.

Have you seen the film multiplicity?

Yeah, I was gonna say even if they were a little bit Dumber, I don't wanna go too far down the line, but a little couple, couple gens I'd be alright.

I haven't dentist appointment tomorrow. Do you think I should go or not?

No.

You might still be high from the ibuprofen.

Yeah, but he shouldn't be taking germs to attend fist of all places.

Yeah, no. If you're sick, don't go, dude. That's that would be bad.

Let me open my mouth. Breathe on you while you work on me.

I'm gonna go.

Wear a mask the whole time.

I am.

No. Like while they're working on you.

I am.

Like a whole scalpel.

A94 how are you?

Hey bro, how are you?

Not bad at all, man. Not bad at all. It's good to see you.

YouTube brother.

So did you look at the what do you think of what I sent you stream?

What you sent me?

Yeah, you know that schedule of marketplaces and meta verses and stuff like that?

Ohh yeah, like the road map of what's out there.

Yeah.

Yeah, I got that on my camera roll right now, you know?

Past all this stuff, I took pictures.

I should put it here as a.

You didn't. I assumed you did, but I didn't send it to you.

Yeah, I mean, you know it, it's not a bad chart, it's a, you know, it gives you a good kind of overview of of some of the players in the.

Space. Um, it's not. I don't think. It's organised incredibly, you know, well, you know, hardware.

His worlds, centralised worlds. I mean, I get where they're going with it.

But it gives you a lot of names to look at and to look up. So.

Just a lot of names that I haven't had before.

I've heard of most of them, but I haven't heard of some of them.

I've heard of all of the hardware I've heard of. Let me see decentralised, world sandbox, Decentraland immersed.

Gonna put it as a the thingy.

Uh, well, the world. Yeah, somnium.

Huh.

Do you wanna put it as a tweet?

Do you want me to?

Yeah, go for it. You're going to be faster than me.

Well, I gotta tweet. I gotta tweet it first.

Good.

And I'll tweet it. Don't worry, I'll tweet.

Well, hold on. It's I'm doing it right now. Just give me a second, people.

And that's tweet airfied.

Over here.

And.

Little boardy.

Alright.

I did it before you.

Really.

What?

I've done extreme.

No, I did it first.

That's why I'm second now.

Ohh, you bastard. Yes it is first.

Yeah.

And I'm gonna remove you.

I did it last year.

That.

I removed you.

Damn. All it takes is a couple ibuprofen. Hi, Jody. Wow.

I know, right?

Excessive. I'm staying well away. We're in a different room.

Do you really have man flu?

Perform woman blue.

Human juplo.

When I take ibuprofen.

I pulled ibroprofen. Ohh God I can't say it.

It's wrong with this.

Hippopotamus.

Whatever it is, when I take it, when I take two of them, I say, you know, my nose is dry for quite a long time until I take the other two.

You know what I like? They have these. I don't know if they have. I'm sure they do over there. But there's, you know, that. Like Vicks.

Yeah.

Inhaler you can get for your nose. It's like menthol. Basically. It just, you know, you sniff it and those are so good, they're addictive.

I've got one here.

Well, use it buddy.

I am. You reminded me.

Just make sure to turn your mic off when you do it.

Strange. Did you see the thing I posted at the top about um?

That's a Apple news. Read about.

Predictions for 23 sorry, I'm.

Ohh.

With somebody listening to one of my spaces.

Maybe. Maybe. But the first five are all to do with blockchain, a RVR web metaverse.

And nfts. Crazy, huh?

Yeah, parts of the metaverse will become real progress and web 3, bridging the digital and physical world. Digital real, increasingly editable nature. What?

Does that mean AR?

That's a weird way of saying AR.

No, no. They're on about other things. It's not all blockchain stuff.

Ohh, and more sustainable technology. That's what we need.

Progress and autonomous systems.

Ohh this is Forbes God, I think they they pay interns to write that stuff.

Yeah, I mean that's you know, that's the trend really ever since like I said, 2018 was when I saw it happen back in the background, all the big companies went ohh time to spend a lot of money on this because we're going there and it was just, it was that quick ready Player one came out.

Oh my God that is much better.

Ohh you're so funny. Bless your heart.

Can I get you anything mesh?

Boiled chicken.

No, not for chicken. I cooked lunch yesterday. I did a roast beef.

With Yorkshire puddings roast potatoes.

Vegetables, gravy. It was yummy.

You.

Nice. I like roast beast.

It was very good and I made um, I did pureed parsnip.

Pureed parsnips.

Yeah.

So.

I never. I don't think I've ever had a parsnip past my lips.

Seriously. Wow.

They have them a lot.

I just don't like the name parsnip.

No, they're really nice. They're kind of sweet, slightly sweet potatoes thing.

Sweet potatoes.

Ohh crap I forgot my stable diffusion machine kicked off.

Amazing.

No.

Power thing that was just messing with the Mac mini trying to get it working. I've unplugged it, plugged it in different cords and was like ohh the suckers dead 10 years that power supply lasted though. I mean think about that most most PC would not do that. You know most PC's 3-4 years probably about four power supply if you have a gold or platinum maybe 5 or 6.

Yeah.

The Little Mac mini man chugged along for 10 years. It's a nice little. I wonder if I could rip the motherboard out and sell it separately because it's Core i7 in there.

Are you gonna get another one?

Yeah. Well, no, I'm not actually. That's a good question.

What I'm probably gonna do is I'm probably gonna build another PC and put the 4090 in it because I love the way my hack Pro is working right now with the RX 6900 XT, but I can't do any stable diffusion on it. I have a Windows install on it right now and I never even use it. It's my main studio machine and then I connect via VNC to a bunch to my any PC I want to use.

He said he had another Hackintosh that I use dual boot, so I don't want to mess with that. That's got an Audi RX-590 in it.

And then I've got this AMD Ryzen system that I just slapped a 3070 into. But what I really need to do is build another box for the 4090.

And probably put like 64 gigs of RAM in it and nice.

You know I 9 proc, a new one and the nice motherboard and.

Turn that into a stable diffusion and rendering machine.

Rendering node.

You have cooked.

Do you like me to build you one and send it to you?

Yeah, do it right now, bro. I'm sure it'll come out great.

Just give me 5 minutes and I'll build it.

Cool.

Ohh yeah, I build all my own machines cause nobody builds them like I do.

Plus, it's way cheaper to do it that way.

My dad used to.

So can you build a Mac?

Build a hackintosh.

Can you build a Mac?

I know Hackintosh.

Yes, a hackintosh. I can custom build a PC running Mac OS that kicks ass.

Right.

Cannot physically build a Macintosh, no. There are a combination of hardware and software, especially with the Apple Silicon now.

In a few years, they'll be getting rid of.

Entirely, and then I'll be screwed for Hackintosh thing.

You won't be screwed because there's gonna be something different, something else, and.

Gonna be quantum computers and stuff like that.

Windows.

Ohh I've I've heard that quantum computers are gonna take over. Then I'm gonna do everything but.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

The people don't know what the hell they're talking about, I swear. A quantum computing chip needs something the size of a refrigerator and other things and cooling units and stuff to cool it to below the temperature of deep space, so you're not getting one in your desktop anytime soon.

I've ordered one that's coming tomorrow.

Now next week, that's Elon's baby. It's gonna run just Twitter.

Quantum Twitter.

Stream there's a series on Netflix called Ancient Origins. Have you seen it?

Isn't that like ancient aliens and all those other ones that have been?

Uh.

No.

I don't know. I haven't seen any others. No, I don't think so.

No.

Is it like aliens seated us or something?

What is it?

No, it's basically, um, a guy is exploring the theory that there was an ancient civilization has been lost and that we were basically, we can't remember the past. And it had it was a higher intelligence civilization that lived before the Ice Age.

And it's absolutely fascinating because he goes to all these different sites in Mexico and the States and in Malta. It was just so, so interesting. And he, he piece tries to piece everything together. It's really cool.

Is he, is he going back to literally like Pangea when everything was together?

No, I think he he's gone back to 12,000 years.

Yeah, that's one of the things.

Well, there's, I mean, there's evidence of all that, you know, like when Atlantis and all that other stuff, I mean there is, there's evidence that something happened.

Hmm.

Yeah, that's what he's exploring what happened at the what was the major event that caused the floods? And linking different ancient civilisations together through carvings and imagery. It's really, really interesting. There's eight episodes, they're only half an hour each, but it's really worth watching if you're into that.

Yeah, it's.

Yeah, I'll cheque it out. Did he, um, did he go over anything at all about the the idea that this ancient civilization was focused primarily technology wise, around sound technology?

No.

Hmm.

Yeah, I've I've researched that quite a bit too. Is it literally a cult sound technology? Like a lot of the different things that they did was based on sound, even genetics and different things. Very weird.

Hmm mate, it's ohh it's just so interesting.

No, it's connecting. It's connecting the the solar.

Energy and the the sun, the moon and and everything with what's happening with what they built before.

So there was a city under.

Ancient monuments all line up with the star constellations.

Um, yeah, it's amazing.

Is he talking about like pyramids on lay lines and that kind of thing?

That's the one place he doesn't go. He doesn't talk about the pyramids. This is all pre pyramid.

There's a place in Indonesia, um, where they've discovered that there's actually buildings that are buried and there's like 3 hidden chambers underneath the building and they've taken soil out and they can date it really, really far back and stuff. It's things like that. It's really, really interesting.

Sounds cool. I'll cheque it out. Thanks.

But yeah, going back to the RTX, I cannot find an RTX 4090.

They're completely sold out.

I could buy one for 1000 bucks more than I want to pay, but you know.

That ain't happening.

So I figured the system, with what I've got and everything, cost me a couple grand to put together.

That's cool.

See if you can get one in the UK. Send it over to you.

Amy from banned books. I sent her the image of that and she's like.

When she came back, she said goldfish. And I was like, what she said is that not an ice cube in the middle? It's like, it's whatever you want it to be.

Ohh no I didn't say ice cube.

That's interesting though. I got some beautiful like icons like that that I've made in the mid journey that are just gorgeous.

Different ones. Splashes, streams, things that look like a a water spigot made out of water spewing water out. I mean, just neat stuff.

That's cool. Where is everyone tonight?

They abandoned crypto Twitter.

Hmm.

I actually got to the end of my stream today my timeline, so I kept scrolling through all the latest.

When it stopped and I'm thinking, hey Twitter, there must be more sweets for me to see. Just got to the end. Thought there wasn't an end.

And retweeting out the room saying we need you? Really.

Have you had anymore from tax?

No, he, uh, I think I told you. He sent me a, you know, DM and said that he felt he let his family down and stuff and I was just trying to keep him, buck him up a little bit. But no, I haven't.

If I should send him.

That image just say hi.

Okay, here you go. In a lot of pain. Open up my stitches from my mouth today, so hopefully I could try to talk tomorrow.

Did you hear that?

What was that from tax?

Yeah.

Wow.

I'm sorry, what I I was typing. What did you say?

I said text said open up my stitches from my mouth and he said in a lot of pain.

Open up my stitches from my mouth today so hopefully I could try to talk tomorrow.

So his mouth was stitched together.

I really don't know. Or 16 somehow. And maybe his lip was.

I don't know.

Hmm.

I just wonder what happened as far as if you had a helmet on it, he said something like little, and I took that as possibly a little helmet. But I, you know, if you're talking to somebody who's probably drugged up too, you know, pain meds. So I have no idea.

I'm sure in the fullness of time we will find out, as I hope he's okay.

Yeah, at least she's still alive.

Hmm. Yeah.

If you broke his bet.

Anna Maria, how are you?

Um, I'm good just hearing the news. You know, there's a helmet law here in Southern California, so.

Um.

Ohh there is a helmet law in Cali.

Yeah, I believe. Yeah, I believe there is a.

Ohh good ohh good. Okay I I thought there wasn't for some reason.

Ohh.

Or am I getting confused with?

I don't know. I'm assuming there is.

Um.

I mean, I'm going to have to look that up because I I was assuming there wasn't. So let me see.

Ohh.

Ohh OK I love I love assumptions.

One of us is right.

Yeah, right. I've done that a couple of times and been wrong lately, so.

Assumptions, assumptions is the mother of all fuckups.

Making.

Yeah, we'll make an ass out of you and I I know. Actually, I am on.

Yeah, you have to wear it.

Yeah, you. It's kelmet, right?

You have to wear a helmet. You have to wear a helmet when operating a motorcycle in Cali.

That was that sentence was in.

Sentence wasn't Steven Seagal one of the Steven Seagal films?

What was?

I said, did you kill him? He said is he dead? He said, I assume he's dead, you know, he hit him and he said assumption is the mother of all fuck ups.

Yes, I remember that.

Because you.

So yeah, you can. You have to wear a helmet in Cali, but you can get away with one of those little uh, you know?

Up.

Mobile S not take looking helmets that the bikers wear, which doesn't protect hardly nothing. So it all depends on the brain bucket he had.

If you are wearing a helmet, why don't you wear the proper helmet?

If you're.

Because a lot of people just wear the bare minimum because they don't want to wear one.

I wear a full face helmet when I well wore a full face helmet when I rode.

Where the hell me driving a car, man?

Yeah, that's a good idea. It's like the people driving around by themselves wearing a mask.

Imagine if you're wearing helmet. Then you're driving the car.

Ohh.

Well, maybe you should have mine in the summer when the lid's down.

You know, if you think about it, it's it makes sense because you are not protected whatsoever.

Well, I mean if you live your life in fear, then you know, you probably should go out, you know, just live in a bubble or something, cause all kinds of things can hurt and kill you.

Why now?

9.

No, you wouldn't go. You wouldn't get out of the house, man. You wouldn't get out of your sofa just in case. If you work, you OK? You might fall.

I just go through life and I do my thing. If I cut myself, I bandage myself and I keep going and it's like it's whatever, you know? You just do your thing.

Don't let anything stop you. If something really stops, you get better and then keep going.

How adventurous are you, Anna, Maria and Maria?

Uh, I'm pretty adventurous. I'm not reckless though.

Um.

So yeah.

Yeah, I mean, I'm yeah, I'm, I'm I'm definitely say adventure.

I'm. I'm glad you are. You added that I'm not. I'm not reckless.

Because there is a difference between a.

Well, I used to be extremely reckless when I was younger, but I'm not reckless now. I'm very conservative now.

Yeah, I've definitely displayed reckless behaviour, right. And when I was younger, but now. No, no, I mean some people might say, you know, somethings I do are reckless. It all depends on your perspective, right? Almost reckless and what's not. I mean, I like to go out and hike.

All by myself. I'm big trails for a long time. That's adventurous to me.

Driving, driving 120 miles an hour down US1 at 2:00 o'clock in the morning, being chased by cops.

Yeah, that's now. That's, that's that, that's dumbass, right.

That's reckless. That's reckless.

That's stupid.

Craigslist.

That's just not reckless. That's no, no, no, no. That's that's dumbass something you stupid reckless. But Zach couldn't have a tinge of, like, OK to it. No, that's dumb ass, right?

But that's what happens when you put a 19 year old on a crotch rocket.

Okay, exactly. OK, OK, stuff like that and absolutely stupid. You know what I mean? No, no. Reckless. But that's not adventurous.

Ohh yes it is. It's very adventurous. The adrenaline rush is amazing.

Maybe. If you're if you're trying to adventure. If you're trying to adventure into gaol, yeah, if you're going to have an adventure to gaol.

The the adrenaline rush is incredible.

Yeah, our adventure to the hospital or gaol, maybe.

But uh, yeah, the adrenaline rush must be.

But no.

You don't stand in front of a train and say let me be adventure and see what happens.

I did that once.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Again, adventurous, not reckless. Yeah, I'll stand right next to the train, but I won't even stand that close, right.

I'll send as close as I need to to get to get that fire photograph.

I also won't put my own life in danger for it.

You think I'm out? I'm gonna adventurous guy dirty.

Sorry, what?

Do you think I'm an adventurous guy?

Adventurous.

Yes.

Um, yeah, you're very crazy as well.

Yeah, you'll you'll do anything.

This is a comedy show now, alright?

I don't get scared, but I'm not reckless and I'm not stupid.

Hold on. Let me send you something. A picture of mission via stream. Hold on.

And put it on the top.

Or send it to Anna Maria, because it's not fair.

You know, that's very true. Yeah.

One SEC.

I tell you what, I had a great time in that Gingerbread house that she did, and the whole environment.

I really had a good time. That can be game for game five, but easily.

Because it was like a game for me, jumping from one bit to another.

And it's sort of a challenge to go up high the to the highest point. It's a challenge, but it's so.

Exciting and interesting.

Do you have a VR headset and the Mariah?

Uh, I do not. It makes me, um, I don't like it. I borrow. I use my sister's room for a while and she, you know, just so I could talk about it pretty much and also see if I if I if I liked it or not. No, I do not like it. I don't like, I don't like the weight on it. I don't like, I don't like the way it makes my face swap.

And I it makes me kind of, you know it I wasn't it kind of doesn't make me a little nauseous but.

You know, you know, my question is, you know, will our brains just eventually accepted and and have that nauseous feeling go away or is it, you know what you, you know, somebody just going to have to fix that through programme.

Apple will fix it with theirs when it comes out.

Yeah, yeah. No, no, I I can see, I can see where like like the VR, you know, headset would come in into great use right now. Like possibly for like meditation because you're not moving.

Right. You're just sitting and you would be allowing the images in front of you more like an immersive sort of, you know, experience. I can see that being very, very big, but for me personally, no, I don't like it.

I'm looking. I'm. I'm probably gonna wait for better glasses or a R.

Well, it's.

You see, I at the beginning I didn't it. It made me like a feel.

What's the word?

Okay.

Nauseous kind of thing, but at the beginning. But now I got used to it and I I focus on what I'm doing rather than what's around me. So I can stand hover around with nothing underneath me I it used to.

Make me sort of jump sometimes before, but now I've got used to it.

And I do it intentionally to get used to.

You know.

This is a VR. This is not real life. So I'm alright. I'm in my lounge.

And um, and it's now I enjoy it more.

I enjoy it a lot.

But I'm I agree with you. The heaviness of the glasses maximum I goal. How long?

Was there late the the longest security about half an hour?

Half an hour, 40 minutes maybe.

Yeah, half an hour, 40 minutes, but I can't do it more than that.

Absolutely.

Yeah. And it just, it just hugs the face, you know what I mean? Like, there's no escaping. You can't escape it. I don't like it. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not a fan.

So that's it, is it?

The other don't put it on. I don't put the band around my head, I just hold it up to my face and only use one controller. Cause I I don't like it. Squishes my nose. I don't like it. It's too heavy.

I haven't tried the the new meta one.

But um.

I heard the reviews about it and it's similar thing. The weight is spread around to the back.

Rather than the front.

And the.

The lenses are smaller and flatter.

With a wider angle so you can see more.

Um.

It's not enough to justify the $1500.

Yeah, I'm definitely waiting for lighter, lighter glasses.

Ray ban?

And what and what not just a change as well? Yeah, we're just in the beginning of it. You know what I mean? It's gonna be, it's gonna be not what? What?

I'm waiting.

It's definitely not what I'm what I want, you know what I mean? But.

I'm waiting. I'm waiting for the matrix glasses. You know this.

You would you would be absolutely shocked at the similarities between the quest two and the Disney headset from 1996 that we were working with. Now, size wise and everything else, the difference different, but putting your head in it, seeing it, the lenses, the screen resolution, the frame rates, everything pretty much about the same.

Hmm. This is this is not this is not good news.

But.

Well, it's going to take somebody like Apple to shove a couple of 4K screens in your face that are auto tunable to your irises, that allow you to be fully immersed for hours at a time without feeling like you're fully immersed. Like you know you're actually, in reality, you're. It has to be able to trick your eyes and only somebody like Apple can pull that off.

Or maybe an upstart company that comes along and does it.

So if you were if you were invisible stream.

What is the first thing you would do?

I am invisible.

Yeah, that.

No, if you actually go in the street and no one can see you and you can go anywhere, where, where, where where would you go? Would you go to Apple Labs and and see what they are up to and what's the latest and stuff like that?

Hmm.

Swedish bikini team dressing room.

I just gave you my answer.

Of over? Or would you go to a bank and come out to the money without anyone seeing you? What would you do if you were invisible?

Swedish bikini team dressing room.

You dirty.

So dirty.

Yeah, but at least I'm not looking at porn. How about my iPad?

I'm asking you, I'm asking you after doing that, you silly man.

But.

You silly man. What? What? Asking me where I'd go if I was invisible?

Yeah.

What would you do if you were invisible?

If I was invisible, I would go and find out all. I would go and find out all the secrets of the elite and sabotage them from the inside.

What would you do animalier if you were invisible?

I don't know. I've been thinking about it since you asked.

Um.

Hmm.

You don't.

Wow, that's right off.

I don't know. I I really don't know. I think I would go to the all the places that I that I'm, I'm not able to go to right now right that that would be.

That would be, you know, it's probably a huge list, yeah.

Hey, he's.

Yeah. And then and then and then maybe a mass of the well played as you say, you know what I mean? But, but through that I just do it through. I don't know, I don't. But you don't need wealth if you're invisible.

Yep.

Hey, tax wanted me to tell you he can't talk so.

I know he can't talk.

He's just listening so but he just, you know, hey tax I just wanted to tell you man, you know you just said next six months I won't move from my bed and they said a year, right. So that's getting to A to six months and.

You know, there's lots you can do with with an iPad or something, will you?

We want to help you out and get you taken care of. But it's it's rough, I know. And we're gonna wanna help you through this man. It's that's tough. So when when you can talk and.

Some things going and, you know, figure some stuff out and get a little bit more healing gone. We'll work it all out. And I I like seeing your picture, man. It's nice to see your face.

To the tax, put it put in face to the tax.

Definitely.

Ohh, it's so good to see you here. Tax really is sending you love.

Sure is, man.

Yeah, absolutely. And I really, I wish you a good recovery, clean recovery, right.

Yeah, it's it is good to see your face.

And yeah, man, there's there's a lot as you know, as you know stream service, there's a lot.

A lot that can be done from your bed. I mean, COVID taught us this, so.

Yeah.
