In “7 Years, 10 Ideas,” we embark on a thought-provoking journey through Studio Practice’s rich tapestry of concepts. Exploring diverse topics from artificial intelligence’s role in art to the rejection of postmodern truths, we dive deep into unconventional ideas like “Dragon Energy” and “IQ as Behaviors.”

In this eye-opening episode, we delve into a future that’s both fascinating and frightening. Join us as we navigate the convergence of technology, philosophy, and human experience, examining how Apple Vision Pro, VR, Tranq, Street Drugs, Hedonism, The Hedonic Treadmill, Postmodern Philosophy, and Artificial Intelligence are weaving a dystopian tapestry that challenges the very essence of humanity.

As we journey through the digital landscape, Apple Vision Pro takes the spotlight, promising innovation beyond imagination. But does this promise come at the cost of our individuality? We scrutinize the role of technology in reshaping our identity.

we’re diving into your comments from the controversial episode that I eventually deleted, as well as the follow-up clarification video. The title “I ALMOST DIED SHOW ME A DESIGNER IN THEIR 40’s!” encapsulates the emotional intensity and varied responses I’ve received.

In a rather surprising turn of events, I’ve deleted the recent episode in which I reacted to David Carson’s Masterclass and narrated my 1992 story involving design, ethics, and Ray Gun magazine.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been making tremendous strides in recent years, and the field of image creation is no exception. AI image creation tools, such as deep learning neural networks, are now capable of generating highly realistic images that can be mistaken for photographs. However, as these tools continue to advance, they are also having an unexpected impact on the world of contemporary representational painting. In this video, we will explore how AI is forcing a crisis in contemporary representational painting and how painters must adapt to this new reality.

As the use of AI in art grows, there is a lot of excitement and fear among artists, educators, and art enthusiasts. AI-generated art has been making headlines in recent years with prominent artists using AI tools to create mind-bending pieces. But with AI-generated art now infiltrating the admissions process in art schools, there are growing concerns about its impact on the future of the industry.

Welcome to Episode 126 of Surviving Nihilism, a series dedicated to exploring the human condition in a world without inherent meaning. In this episode, we have a special message for Sam Hyde’s Lost Boys, a group of young men who have been drawn to Hyde’s anti-establishment, nihilistic philosophy. Our guest today is Elliott Earls, a designer, artist, and professor who has been studying and speaking about nihilism for over two decades. In this video, he will offer some guidance and advice for those who feel lost and disillusioned in the face of nihilism.

“We repeatedly create symbolic systems of meaning—religions, political ideologies, scientific theories—and then forget that they are our creations; we have a devilish habit of confusing them with the mysterious nonhuman reality they were meant to explain. We have constructed about ourselves (and within ourselves) an environment of symbols and cannot tell where symbol leaves off […]

Many young artists express allegiance to a kind of solipsistic ethos through blind devotion to the purity of their “art.”  This naive approach to work is very dangerous to a sustained artistic life. In this episode we take a look at one possible solution to the problem.

This is day 2 of 30 days of videos. The Peter Principle: every employee will rise in the hierarchy through promotion until they reach a level of respective incompetence.
