A short post regarding the movements to a 50 percent cut on turned items as NFT in the crypto marketplace.

A rundown of the knowledge I’m gaining as a member of the crypto Tezos community in art communities such as OBJKT, Teia and Versum.

‘The ‘Moment of Truth’ is a creative project comprised of the production of a social fiction novel, a digital animation film, and an exhibition of illustrations by Australian artist and author, Alexander Hayes. Based on a factual in-real-life story, Alexander Hayes is paving the way for how victims of crime can reach emancipation through the human act of storying and the power of artificial intelligence.

Starry AI is a great entry-level application for anyone seeking to explore creations of images based on a text prompt using artificial intelligence. The following test collection of GANS was created using simple one-word text prompts or composite terms chosen randomly.

For as long as I recall I've pushed my body, this biological container that I was born with to its known limits. For the sports enthusiast that might seem like a given yet for me its been the only way I can cope with a chronic and acute hereditary condition which causes extreme athritic pain in my body, constantly.

Interstate travels across Australia have provided me with ample time to reflect deeper on life. I have often quite found myself quite emotional as these trips are often filled with facing fears of change,

Last night after a flurry of messages backwards and forwards on the mobile phone it became apparent to me that my own responses to my partners plea for rational discussion had ceased.

This is not junk mail and I have not directed you here as part of a marketing campaign. Most importantly this is MY point of view composed and listening to my partner.

I have been testing dating apps to connect with like minded people since 2004 when I first heard about a social network dating online application called OKCupid.

It has taken me almost two years to actually grasp ... or better still, understand fully what the act of 'compersion' means. Of course there is no way of fully knowing what true compersion means until you have experienced and have embodied a sense of what the opposite to jealousy entails in reality.

I received a package in the mail today from the Australian National University.  It was the almost fully redacted results of a Freedom of Information request that I had demanded of the ANU pertaining to my resignation in 2016. 

In a throw-away comment in Facebook I think I nailed (as often happens and is the way when you dont overthink things) the way that I'd like to reframe my thinking around what constitutes a happy family.

I reflect on a more humorous aspect of my own personal life that I feel compelled to share. Some say that when a man (male) reaches his middle years he finds his younger man no longer fighting with his child, that his middle aged man facing up to his Elder and listening in on what matters most for the rest of the journey forward.

Above all else. Each and every time I'm presented with yet another challenge I remind myself that trust is the paramount, deep set and consistent intuition that gets me through. 2015 through the beginnings of 2016 has been beyond tumultuous.
