Taking a look at "optical flow". Tracing the lines between AI animation tools, video compression, datamosh glitches, and more.

Presenting the core building blocks of Diffusion Pilot - a deeper way of animating with and through Stable Diffusion.

For anybody curious, but mostly animators, who might feel intimated and confused by the choices and progress in generative AI.

Mapping out this rabbit hole, zigzagging over the boundary between art and computer science, getting distracted by Stable DIffusion along the way.

Discussing the irony (or value) of manual artistic labor in the middle of generative AI takeover.

Navigating deeply rooted reasons for choosing to do artistic research that powers Diffusion Pilot.
