Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and ad gorgeous as a Caravaggio. Magic! Goodnight.

“I don’t do this embroidery stuff with the intention of being in the fashion world, I do it with the intention of being an artist. I try to bridge the gap and let people know that embroidery is art, and fashion is a way for people to get into my stuff.“

James Baldwin parceled out into AI-selected therapeutic memes, stylized via a typewriter interface: the “people-centered” AI future made possible through $500M in philanthropic funding. Without such technological advancement, we’d have no other means of accessing Baldwin quotations!
