AI is now fueling the next wave of inflation hitting consumers & businesses. Add to that the inflationary pressures of the Iran war and trumps tariffs, we are seeing a permanent rise in costs of everything from electronics to fuel and food. #inflation #AI #NoAI apnews.com/article/ai-i...

3D design element for a 60's modern still life I'm creating. Is a replica of one I have displayed in my studio (authentic 60's vintage). Not a beauty render; used uniform lighting to highlight the geometry. Created in Maya. #3d #3dart #3ddesign #maya3d #maya #retro #design #60s #60smodern #vintage

I met Ray Harryhausen at his honorary doctorate ceremony many years ago. He brought this maquette for us to see in person. Ray is the reason I got into animation as a career. My hero! #rayharryhausen #animation #clashofthetitans #film #fantasy #visualeffects #vfx #movies #stopmotion

this little guy is a stray i feed every night. he arrives while im at work at stays on the step until i come home. i adore this cat! (altho i cant touch him -- he's too afraid of people. so i just give him space and keep him fed...) #caturday #cat #cats #love #humane

My favorite movie of all time. Brilliant visual FX by Phil Tippet Studios, coupled with wry political and social satire from Paul Verhoeven. This flick always puts me in my happy place. Loved the book by Robert A. Heinlein as well! #starshiptroopers #paulverhoeven #robertaheinlein #scifi #vfx

Best movie poster (& book cover) in history, imho. I was obsessed with both as a teen in the 70s, and still am today. Amazing illustration and design. Launched the era of the summer blockbuster. #jaws #design #movieposter #movies #illustration #bookcover #bookillustration

just had an ai bot give me "constructive" criticism on my work. you know what i say? not interested, ai! My industry is one of the hardest hit by ai, and i do not appreciate being "trained" by ai on how to be a better artist. 😡 #noai #fuckai #aisucks #human #humancreated #100%human

Watching Charles H. Schneer's adaptation of Jules Verne's "Mysterious Island", with amazing animation from Ray Harryhausen. I grew up with this movie in the 70's, and watched it every time it came on TV as a kid! #JulesVerne #RayHarryhausen #Animation #StopMotion #fantasy #ClassicMovies #scifi

just ocurred to me that im re-watching 2 of my fav scifi series where the earth blows up at the end. #lexx & #andromeda. seems pretty fitting with the state of the world today... #generoddenberry #scifi #sciencefiction #madeincanada

watching DUNE, 2000 miniseries. the most faithful film version to frank herbert's books. also the golden age of LightWave 3D, used to create the VFX. i remember when this movie was in production, & the excitement within the LightWave community when it premiered... #lightwave3d #dune #frankherbert

enjoying Excalibur on Blu-Ray. an amazing film. saw it in the theater when it first came out in 1981. stellar cast and superb direction by john boorman. (watching the original theatrical release) #excalibur #kingarthur #fantasy #medieval

Finished Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers. Best last 30 pages of a book ever. #robertheinlein #starshiptroopers #books #sciencefiction #scifi #classics #literature #reading #readbooks #novel #library

I mistakenly filled up a paprika bottle with cayenne pepper this morning. yadda yadda yadda....

as a sci-fi & 3D nerd, ive been enjoying re-watching one of my fav series, Lexx. interesting on how the VFX for Lexx was made using the early PRISMS (later became Houdini) & PowerAnimator (which evolved into Maya). cool 3D history. #3D #lexx #animation #maya #houdini www.fxguide.com/fxfeatured/s...
