Perhaps this is the most uninteresting take on #AppleVisionPro, but making immersive environments feels like oil painting. www.elkraneo.com/the-aestheti...

As the dust settles from #WWDC25, I am starting to get a sense of the big picture for the future of Spatial Computing, so I wrote about it www.elkraneo.com/wwdc25-guide...

In this article, I document my process of generating a voiceover for The Green Spurt using Dia by Nari Labs, experimenting with audio prompts, non-verbal tags, and audio editing to craft a fitting emotional tone for one of the game’s ending scenes. roxana-nagy.com/emotions-in-... #NariLabs

As we approach the release of The Green Spurt, we needed a voiceover for the game's ending. In this article I share my first impressions of Dia, an open-source Text-To-Speech model by Nari Labs, that brings a new level of emotional depth to AI voices. roxana-nagy.com/emotions-in-... #NariLabs
