I have to say, I am really disappointed Devin Townsend's #TheMoth featured AI-generated art projections. They were uncanny and distracting at best even if you look past the ethics of it. And now it's occupying my mind and distracting me from talking about the actual music of his 10 years in the making project...

@Gargron Had the same reaction at a jazz show recently. Great music, but had to look down half the time to not be frustrated by the creepiness and jitters in the slightly animated art projections. If they'd just projected the real human-made afrofuturist pictures they'd riffed off of (ripped off), I would have loved the show.

@Gargron That's a huge bummer. I'm sorry it had to be like this.
