I came looking for hope and connection and left with clear eyes and a full heart. And a renewed hope that risking is worth it. Thanks Texas. And thanks to all the fellow weirdos in the desert sharing what they have so we can all flourish.

On this little island of creative creatures… surviving the harsh and dry desert becomes a collective struggle to flourish. We must find new sources of water… nurture fertile ground with novel technology… and we need each other.

To nurture and form and usher new cultural artifacts into culture is a sacred act (and extraordinarily difficult.) It’s apt the Marfa is in the middle of the desert. Because if the Calvary isn’t coming then neither is security… or supplies… or rest…

The road out of Marfa. I was told once by a “wise uncle” in indie video game dev that “the calvary isn’t coming” He had spent many decades running a studio through success and hibernation… cycles of gathering and dispersing. Moments of intense joy and years of struggle. 🧵

I'm vibe coding an entire app (not just using ai code assistance) with agents for the first time. It's remarkable and sobering to experience my own replacement in real-time. I am project manager, I am code reviewer, I am customer, but I am not programmer. Maybe I am Artist?

I really appreciate that the leadership of our company is defending the space and essential case for artists of all disciplines at the intersection of games and ai. Technology should augment us, reveal more of who we are, not replace us.

A small glimpse of some of what we're working on at Operative Games... the studio founders have gathered an amazing set of artists from all disciplines to bring these characters to life https://t.co/U3xi61nOi0
