A little more fun than usual

 All my life, I considered myself an ordinary person. But now I'm starting to understand that ordinary people don't exist. We are all very different because we ourselves and everything around us are often incredibly complex. And when we look for explanations for various phenomena, we often find very different templates, which simply are created from different perspectives. If it's a simple three-dimensional structure, like a coffee cup, from...

2d graphics from ground up | Retouching | Background replacement | N🙈 AI

I'm going to tell you here just a few important things that will help anyone who is ready to try it to get started. Actually, I think the best way is to try it out, so I'm attaching the Gimp file. You can download it, just see how it's done, and even experiment with it. Gimp is a legal free Open-source application: https://www.gimp.org/ Basically everything in it is organized very intuitively, I'll talk about some things that are not so obvious right...

ai-experiment

 It was impossible to resist trying it out. Of course, AI is much more than funny stories or pictures. After all, it's a good way for us, the artists from the 'tonux.gix' group, to start thinking about the design of robots for our virtual environment... But what happens next? We will have to decide how to interpret AI creativity, for example. We will also have to interpret in some way our AI friends which will come about. Perhaps not so much...

Chaotic Techno (1 hour) Mix

 A little bit of noise again, this mix seems to be one of our most chaotic ones. There is also a sense of anxiety in it. Not surprisingly, the year 2022 has brought anxiety into our lives. I think all the inhabitants of our little lost planet today, consciously or not, feel it. I hope it will go away soon...   I'm sure most people around the world hope it goes away, too. But this planet is one for all of us. The evil invader is...

Metaverse — really next chapter? Or even something more?

 Perhaps our time will go down in history as the moment when our civilization moves on to the next phase. S😎 far, of course, it still sounds a little strange to us, but it seems that we are indeed becoming a virtual civilization. We still perceive it only as a game, but now this process has received a decisive boost of support in the form of a connection to awesome blockchain technologies. I probably don't even need to explain anymore that...

Human Body Augmentation

This is incredible experiment, I just can't resist to sharing it. There was new publication in Neuroscience News, researches has been going on for years, some of which is in the open access, you can look. So far, third thumb is controlled non-invasively, by buttons in the shoe. But imagine what would happen if you combine this with neural interface.The interesting thing is, it seems to me, that it's easier to get used to it than to get used...

quasi-avantgarde techno music

 This piece is very simple really. Almost like K-pop or J-pop, probably. Of course, the style here is different - some quasi-avantgarde techno, similar to global-stage artists.   The piece is very sensitive and optimistic, like comics, it seems to me. We mixed this up from our older pieces, mostly this one: https://youtu.be/nvA5_dmSh2w.  We used only open-source software for most of our projects, and for music of course....

Entropy, or what is it all about...

Order is among the main things we try to achieve in our music, 3d-enviro and everything else. Looks like it's nothing new: the Khufu pyramid creators pursuited the same goal; Schrödinger wrote about it in his work "What Is Life?". Lately scientists tend to make an assumption that we - putting it simply - "eat" entropy - and not energy, as was considered before. At "tonux.gix" we've instantly got to like such an idea - we love discussing things like meaning of life etc... What is all this richness of the forms about if all we do is simply convert...

Journey To Dusky Emptiness

Everything we know, everything we live in is a bright bubble - in dusky emptiness - we try not to think about without serious enough reason. Sometimes, though, you suddenly want to. Especially, when we feel that something out there is changing too fast. Then we happen to move towards an edge of our magnificent bubble, which we've got used to and beloved... This self-remix is an intent to leave the bubble of our reality for a bit. Once something unknown to us before gains some sort of structure in our imagination - it becomes a part of our bubble....

Zero Point (our pre-2005 experiments)

Our Blots >>> Sound Only >>> Zero Point It was a really experimental music. We wanted to know what everything consists of and we tried. Everything came as if by itself. Each time we've coming from other side and came to the same place again. And now we have it passed, as zero point. When you come in one side from it, all around becomes crystals. And if you come in other side, you feel like you're in river... https://www.jamendo.com/album/108257/zero-point-our-pre-2005-experiments Thanks...

Creative 3d-Glitches

Anyone who's into complex technologies knows that various glitches often encourage creativity. Especially, when you feel you're out of your own imagination. You can even provoke the technology to tell you something new, making it go crazy:] What's on video is a little glitch of the interactive 3d-environment game-like engine. We tested a scene where we collected several old and new, unfinished vehicles. It's absolutely crazy project - we dream to create a 3d-enviro with social network functions. It's "in the womb" now, so it's not even available...
