The Dirtywave M8 seems really interesting. I like the gamepad feel. Maybe a way to make controls feel more visceral and rhythmic. I also like this camera/streaming setup. With the full device showing on the right and the screen on the left.

I've been thinking about prediction. Mostly in the context of M being almost 2 years old and asking/demanding more things. read on scrawl

I tested out my Sampler prototype by converting highlights on a printout into a digital collage and recorded a video documenting the process.

The setup

The result

Trying out sampler workflow.

And one weird one:

Starting to enjoy the feel of this.

Experimenting with putting controls and info on the canvas - with some reciprocal scaling to make it more readable. Needs some more finesse but interesting so far.

Made a new video talking through how an AI-assisted date-picker shows some of the challenges of building an AI application.

I tried another video experiment. This time with a combo of tabletop and web cam and more editing.

Different keys to peel off snapshots or videos. Trying to think of the least obtrusive but clear way to show mark what is a video vs what is an image.

Been thinking about the fact that the 'peel' clone interaction goes all the way back to MacPaint.

I made a video about scripting an alarm clock for myself.

Quite obviously trying to get more comfortable with video. At least I'm appreciating more all the work that goes into the 'maker-style' videos I watch.

More crop and pan experiments

Prompting to transcribe and summarize my tabletop notes. Real question is where do I put these for single source of truth - I think a database, maybe I use the s3 image key as the id? That should be unique and could come in handy, thought it may also limit uses for non-s3 images...
