I made this drawing of Jake Peralta a few months ago. First post ever on Lemmy! :) (lemmy.world)

Alt: Jake Peralta, from Brooklyn 99. He’s wearing a gold crown and a red cloak on top of his usual outfit: a shirt and jeans. He’s looking away with one hand on his hip and the other one in a finger gun pose. The gold details have been painted with metallic watercolours.

Over the last couple of weeks I added several more to the collection, reworked and improved the interactions on many, merged two, deleted two, restructured the code, and updated the info display to use DOM elements (that was tricky). I improved the mobile controls, and it works on iPhone now. I'm really proud of the overall project. It's up to 26 illusions—with a lot more if you count all the variations built in.

The grid appears to converge towards the middle. You can morph it between several different versions of Akiyoshi Kitaoka's illusions.
The black and white edges make the shapes appear to rotate when you are not focusing on them. Akiyoshi Kitaoka developed this technique.
Each colored shape is the same exact color.

I can't help asking myself what this is, and I have no answer. But it has a kind of vibe I like. As a reminder, this image is generated by some line drawing rules coded in a program - this is not AI or hand-drawn or 3D modelled

"Memory Module" by Elsif visualises how memories are stacked on top of each other to create beliefs, how they get obscured by new impressions, and how varying the resulting personalities are. The thoughtful concept results in beautiful images with reduced palettes and shapes that resemble mental landscapes.

I love how the digital canvas is the colour of old parchment, fitting the theme of documenting old memories perfectly.

Iterations and

Black and white generative artwork. Portrait orientation. Canvas the nostalgic colour of parchment or cardboard. Tilted and layered black rectangular outlines are arranged in flowing shapes, reminiscent of hills and rough terrain.

tl;dr: It's Mastodon. You can use Mastodon from Kbin.

The Microblog tab shows posts from Kbin + Mastodon, just like how the Threads tab shows posts from Kbin + Lemmy. So if you have people you like on Mastodon, search for them using the little magnifying glass and then follow them from Kbin. Their posts will appear in the Microblog tab.

Additionally, if people on Mastodon use a for something, it'll automatically be sorted in magazines that care about that hashtag. This means if you follow someone and that person uses a hashtag, their post will be placed in the "Microblog" tab of whatever magazine relates to that hashtag. This allows other people to discover the person you're following through shared interests.

For example, the Internet Archive has a Mastodon account - @internetarchive. The Internet Archive used their Mastodon account to make a toot on Mastodon: https://mastodon.archive.org/@internetarchive/110611348840969515

Because people are following the @internetarchive account from Kbin (which you can do by going here or by searching Kbin for their username, @internetarchive@mastodon.archive.org), that post was federated here to Kbin. Once it showed up, it appeared in the "Microblog" tab and got automatically organized into Kbin's @Futurology magazine because it used the hashtag : https://kbin.social/m/Futurology/p/565801/Exciting-news-Introducing-ARCH-Archives-Research-Compute-Hub-a

Magazine moderators determine what hashtags they want included in their magazine - so @Futurology has said "We would like all posts with to show up in our microblog section". (You can go to @Futurology directly to see what hashtags the mod team thinks are relevant.)

If no hashtags are used on a post (or none of them match any magazines), then it goes to the magazine @random.

Wanna write a tweet/toot from right here on Kbin? Put it in a microblog. Use to organize it into a magazine, or use the dropdown on Kbin to pick a magazine manually.

People can follow your Kbin profile from Mastodon. They'll see microblogs as a Mastodon toot, and "boosts" as basically Mastodon's version of retweets. People on Lemmy don't see boosts, but will see microblogs as a "normal" Lemmy post (since Lemmy doesn't have a "microblog" tab).

For example. I made this post to the Microblog here on Kbin: https://kbin.social/m/Disneyland/p/510705

I made it from the main "microblogs" tab, but it used the hashtag . @Disneyland listens to that hashtag, so Kbin automatically put it there: https://kbin.social/m/Disneyland/p/510705/Went-to-Disneyland-over-the-weekend-and-went-on-RunawayRailway

If you go to Mastodon, you'll see it as a normal toot: https://sunny.garden/@EnglishMobster@kbin.social/110587107756032019

If you go to Lemmy, you'll see that microblog as a Reddit-like post: https://lemmy.world/post/418494?scrollToComments=true

(Note that it seems things which come from Mastodon don't get automatically sent to Lemmy - just microblogs from Kbin itself. That Internet Archive post I mentioned above doesn't seem to exist on Lemmy.world.)

This behavior is one of the main reasons why I chose Kbin over Lemmy; I love that I can post once and have my stuff federated everywhere else super cleanly and easily. Lemmy is a bit more messy when it comes to Lemmy -> Mastodon and the devs aren't interested in changing how it works (I asked before I came over here).

Ernest seems really invested in playing to the strengths of the fediverse, and the Kbin roadmap has him planning to integrate more fediverse services in the future. For example, Mobilizon support is planned, which is like a group calendar on the fediverse.

If @Starwars wanted to have a watch party for a new episode of The Mandalorian, they could (theoretically) schedule an event on Mobilizon and have it federate to their magazine as a normal thread. Then they could (theoretically) pin the Mobilizon thread and use the comment section of the event as a Kbin megathread when the episode airs. See https://demo.mobilizon.org/ and imagine it being part of Kbin, just as Lemmy and Mastodon are "part of Kbin."

Did you ever have a classmate that pretended to be a vampire or some other supernatural creature? How much did they commit to it?

I had a couple classmates that pretended to be vampires back in elementary and middle school. They’d pretend their Koolaid was blood, complain about the sunlight, and bite their friends a lot. Not enough to draw blood, though. I haven’t kept up with most of them, but one guy is a teacher now. He seems pretty normal.

The red is different today, I shake the ink bottles and pens in the same way, maybe it's the cleaning of the pen that's to blame.

The latest plot. This is bigger than the usual plots from the clp series. Took almost 11 hours using 3 colors.

About 29x36.3 cm / 11.4x14.3 in

It is already minted on objkt (link on my profile).

Trying out a different way of picking the colors for 'Tips & Tricks' in preparation for a release on fx(hash).

I like these, but I want to allow for some green to happen. Somehow it is often the greens that bug me.

Output from the generative art work titled Tips & Tricks. A number of columns made up out of segments with color gradients with varying start and end colors. The tops and bottoms of the segments are set at angles following an underlying pattern.

Still hunting for more palettes. And the algo needs a bit of tweaking wrt choosing adjacent colours.

I appreciate the concern, and it seems to me that kbin is no longer just one person ;) Currently, kbin is a team of wonderful people who handle development work, devops, project management, and more. Additionally, Piotr helps me with administering kbin.social. There will be significant changes here soon, things are happening quickly. But to be honest, I wasn't fully prepared for such substantial growth, and it will probably take some time before everything stabilizes. But... this is just the beginning ;) What's important is that the snowball starts rolling, regardless of whether kbin, Lemmy, or Mastodon gains the most users. We all win in this situation.
