Cole this is awesome! I love the ethos of hyphen

I’d define myself as an artist-engineer, but I want to be a better storyteller too. I don’t know if that means adding another hyphen, or thinking more critically about if artist-engineer is an apt description.

Looking forward to watching this grow :)

This was an incredible read Cole

Lately, I’ve thought a lot about the moral responsibilities of creators. With big tech companies prioritising profit and news agencies prioritising chaos.

I feel as though it is up to the individual to bring more light and hope into the world. So it was really refreshing to read about your perspective and approach on how you view the AI age. Thank you.

In terms of bridging, I think for myself at bridge between morality and virality, trying to understand how to create things that has good moral values and yet can reach peoples heart.

thanks for your comment sean!!

i'm definitely thinking about how i as an individual want to create in the age of ai. i'm glad it resonated with you!

morality vs. virality is something i also think about - telling stories and have them reach a lot of people seems contradictory sometimes

human-human; the human that has emotions, fragility, compassion, and forgiveness and dash "-" the human that is part of humankind, that sent two voyager crafts beyond our sun's solar influence, the human that became the dominant species of our planet, the human that is able to question their own existence. The Ying and Yang of human existence, becoming better by accomplishing more and becoming better by "accomplishing" less. Focusing on becoming a better version of myself that can make meaningful contributions. Shape that space that you are currently in to help others.
