^ Pictured above: Billionaire Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel went to Coachella with his supermodel wife, and then two days later laid off over 1,000 employees. I was one of them. So was my entire team of about 40 people.

We were the Bitmoji team at Snapchat, and except for a few people in LA, our team was completely eliminated. Acquired by Snapchat, Bitmoji remained, at least in spirit, a somewhat semi-autonomous republic within the larger company. But eventually the Bitmoji founders departed or were ousted, along with some long-time artists, and the corporate tech tentacles slowly creeped in to smother what was once a quirky creative team. I joined part way through the process, so I got to taste that fun/creative culture, but also witness its decline.

Honestly, we were all there by accident - artists, animators, and illustrators hiding in the corner of a Tech Company, quietly shocked at the generous salaries and benefits (and free lunches) we received, a contrast to the poor-paying studios and freelance illustration gigs that had come before.

The 5 years I spent there were amazing and horrible. Amazing because (1) Big Tech Salary, and (2) I got to work with some of the most fun, creative and intelligent people. No dead wood on this team. It was also horrible, because ultimately I was just making digital crap to keep users' eyes glued to an app and its advertisers. The pressure to perform and scale production was really high. I lost sleep and gained weight, and got to suffer from anxiety for the first time.

And now suddenly it's done. We're all out. Ostensibly "because AI", despite the fact that we barely used any AI in our creative pipelines, and only for non-creative tasks. I didn't lose my job because of AI, I lost it because of the *idea* that AI could do it all. And of course because Snap's stagnating stock price needed a boost.

It's honestly a relief. I've spent the last month relaxing and decompressing; I had accumulated a month's worth of unused vacation anyway. I'll eventually try to figure out what's next, but for now I have a generous severance to give me some breathing room. I'm free now, as are my fellow artists. I'm happy they can go use their creative gifts for things that are hopefully more meaningful to our society and culture.

thanks for reading my brain dump mltshp friends. That concludes my ted talk.

That's my experience with AI at work too, about 90% hope it'll become something, 8% projects that won't go anywhere, and 2% actual useful work (mostly writing code).

My experience in AI with a very large well known software developer is similar to what's been stated: it makes pretty shit for people who don't understand the actual pipelines they think they're replacing, and that pretty shit then needs to be touched by more hands than have the time to fix it. It's a boondoggle and I'm not scared of it any more that I was scared of the 3D tvs, AR and VR revolutions that never came, NFTs, crypto and on and on and on. Rich white men with too much money and too little understanding.

In architecture school I wrote a paper about how Cincinnati was consistently behind the curve in adopting new modes of transportation - canals, rail, subway - and how if it had been more forward thinking it could’ve risen to much greater prominence.

In retrospect it was my first taste of the discipline of planning, and if I’d recognized that sooner I might have saved myself a lot of trouble floundering in design. Bit of irony there I’d never noticed until now.

RIP Sonny Rollins

Black and white photo of several dozen people clustered on and around a brownstone staircase in Harlem in 1958. People present include Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, Gene Krupa, Charles Mingus, Lester Young, and Art Blakey. There are also about a dozen young boys, plus Count Basie, sitting on the curb in front of them.

Rollins was the longest-surviving musician in the Great Day in Harlem photo shot in 1958. Actual end of an era.

Full list of musicians (jaw-dropping!) plus additional people who missed the photo session:

Big Aussie Units Series #74

The Big Sherrin - Ungarie, NSW

An AFL footbal, in the home of the Danihers, Ungarie. The town is famously known as the birthplace and hometown of the Daniher brothers—Terry, Neale, Anthony, and Chris—who all played for the Essendon Football Club.

Posting this one in honour of Neale, who passed away yesterday from MND. He was an icon of Australian football as both a player and a coach. the coach of the Melbourne Football Club between 1998 and 2007, and also held coaching positions with Essendon, Fremantle and West Coast.

He is also the 2016 Australian of The Year

Vale Neale.

Savannah, Georgia, 1969
Lee Friedlander speaks of the medium with humility, as if his photographs are simply gifts he has been fortunate to receive, but the more closely we look the more keenly we see just how carefully he guides us through the photograph into life itself.

Smiling doofus with allergy-smitten wife
I generally avoid big multi-day festivals as typically there are not enough bands I want to see to justify the cost. However, the stars aligned this year. Nearly every band I wanted to see was playing on my birthday. Spent about 10 hours there and it worked out to about 8 bucks a band in the end. My wife was a trooper, she was having allergy issues and is not a crowd person, but she also had a good time when it was all said and done.

A comic book splash page. Superimposed over the face of batman and his cowl is a street scene in moody blues and grays of a huddled woman walking down a decaying city street, her elongated shadow stretched in front of her. To the left are three blocks of prose, beginning "Twenty-one years ago, this neighborhood was the dwelling place of the rich and soon-to-be rich," and ending "The area known as Park Row acquired a new name—Crime Alley—and—". Underneath it is the story's title in red block letters: "'There is No Hope in Crime Alley!'"

years ago, a classmate of my son’s in 7th grade had a tooth about to fall out, so he jumped up on a lunchroom table, howled like an animal, brandished a pair of pliers and yanked it out.

An eerily blurry scene: a tree with long, thin, wavy branches stands against a white sky. Hanging from one of the branches is a crude swing with nobody on it. The entire scene is rough, grainy, and rendered in shades of dark blue, gray, white, and tinges of green. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Photograph of a blank wall on the side of a housing block. The wall is about 3 stories high.
More than two years ago, one of my neighbors suggested to me that I should paint a mural on an ugly wall at a square down my street.

It took me forever to scrape enough courage together to get funding from various kinds of places. But I managed. I got the money. I got the permits. I got the scissor lift. I got the wall renovated and plastered. I got the paint and a colleague that is going to help me. And it should be ready by June 13, because then it’s going to be officially opened.

I found the whole process rather nerve-racking because all in all it’s about €18,000. But my goodness, will I be happy and relieved once it’s done.
