In the field of visual arts, a recurring theme in anti-AI conversation seems to be: "AI models are trained on artworks without artists’ consent and they steal their art style". This argument just does not sit right with me, so here’s my take on the subject.

If you are interested in generating images using artificial intelligence, but don't not know where to start - follow this guide, and within a few minutes you will be seeing your very own AI generations.

It's my pleasure to announce that this week I have joined the Amazon Device and Services Design Group (DDG) as their brand new (and very first) Senior User Experience Concept Designer.

How to use my text-to-speech reader to create natural-sounding numbers for automated voice messaging systems.

This solution should allow you to play Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 (MFS2020) with full head tracking via Tobii Eye Tracker. I suspect the same method will work for a multitude of other games that are not compatible with Tobii but support TrackIR or FreeTrack protocols.

Cineversity VR Camera, or CV-VR Cam for short is a product of Maxon-managed Cineversity - a popular subscription based Cinema 4D training and tools resource.

You might have heard of Revive as it has stirred quite a bit of media attention with its recent back-and-forth with Oculus' DRM. It was originally designed to allow Oculus-exclusive titles to work on other headsets, but as I discovered - works with SkyBox VR as well!

SkyBox VR Player from Mettle integrates with Adobe After Effects, Premiere and SpeedGrade and allows you to view your 360 content directly in Oculus Rift – without rendering! It will even let you work on your software without taking the HMD off, and automatically recognizes mono and stereo 360 compositions. Best of all: It’s free!
