WP: LP or EP? - The World Provider
2024-12-02
I recently returned to the studio to record a few songs.
View from the vocal booth
I’m very happy with how these songs are coming together, and very excited to share them with you. But when will it happen… that’s my conundrum.
At the beginning of the pandemic, I recorded a whole bunch of demos, and I figured (as many did) that I would make a record during the lockdown. That didn’t work out, for a bunch of reasons.
The creators of South Park:
“If the words ‘and then’ belong between those beats … you’ve got something pretty boring. What should happen, between every beat that you’ve written down, is either the word ‘therefore’ or ‘but’ … that gives you your causation.”
Why it matters:
‘And’ implies a simple continuation.
‘But’ implies conflict.
‘Therefore’ implies progress.
Here’s the vid:

Writing Funny Lines for your Sitcom
2024-12-02
I like jokes. I like laughing. Out loud. I quite like smiling. And I quite the like feeling of having spotted something really subtle. But I think I like laughing the best.
I fully appreciate that some people don't like laughing. Somehow, some of them are TV critics. It's understandable to some extent. Most comedies wouldn't seem all that funny when played on a preview disc at 11am in a brightly lit lounge on a Tuesday morning.
WTF is a Gaussian Splat!?!?
2024-12-02
Within the last few weeks, my feeds have been inundated with flashy videos with a new buzz phrase…GAUSSIAN SPLATTING!!! And when I saw it, I believe I reacted in an entirely rational way…I was furious. WTF is this, now!?!?!?
I have spent the last couple of years being thoroughly curious about NERFs and GenAI and Neural Rendering and Deep Learning Upsampling and SDK Modeling and GLBs and GTLFs and USD and USDa and USDc and USDz….

“Please spank us.”
That was the essence of what CNN’s Brian Stelter begged of White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki.
It was a plea for punishment. A beastial desire to be corrected. It was violent but erotic with the raw physicality of “Fifty Shades of Grey” and the tortuous titillation of 9 1/2 Weeks.
You could see it in his eyes.

Yambag! - Razorblades & Aspirin
2024-12-02
Ok, what exactly is a Yambag?
So a yambag is slang for your ball sack, scrotum, etc. to put it bluntly. You can also call someone a yambag for being a real dick. I guess you can say that it may or may not be a reference to the Upstab song "Yambag". Who's to say? It was one of the names that was blurted out when deciding what to call ourselves.
