Attending #LPS25 in Vienna. It feels somewhat insulting to subject 6,000+ attendees to an AI-generated “welcome” in an opening plenary. Like, you wouldn’t take the time to shoot a video but you’re going to have your AI clone take up our collective time? Am I being a curmudgeon?
Looking forward to hearing from @snatale.bsky.social on “Talking to Parrots, or How to Make Sense of AI” at this year’s #ecsite conference…
“I practice hope like an Olympic sport.” –Katharine Hayhoe at @amnh.org during New York Climate Week

The gravitational center of the fulldome world has shifted to Brno for this week’s festival! What better way to mark the event than a giant inflatable sphere showcasing the EHT polarization image of M81’s black hole on the grounds?

Getting ready to speak about @openspaceproj.bsky.social at #ecsite in Göteborg! But realizing that no one at the conference seems to use BlueSky…
Great to be back at @universeum.bsky.social for the opening of the new @liu.se Visualization Center C production “Once Upon the Moon.”

Attending “Exploring AI in VFX,” sponsored by the New York section of the Visual Effects Society. (The walk-in music is Starship’s “We Built This City.” Do they know I’ve just arrived from the Left Coast?)
You know you’re back in Brno for the fabulous annual fulldome festival when the line for delicious Czech food goes all the way down the stairs and into the lobby!
