The floor is moving with Shawn Reynaldo
Over the past two decades Shawn Reynaldo has operated in every corner of electronic music. His substack "First Floor", recently anthologized into his debut book, offers a refreshingly candid account of his feelings about the turbulent state of a culture in transition. We dive into some of the choice essays from his book, reflect on some major shifts of the last decade, and attempt a COVID post mortem.See Shawn on tour: https://thevinylfactory.com/news/first-floor-shawn-reynaldo/Buy and read First Floor Volume 1: https://velocitypress.uk/product/first-floor-volume-1/Sub to the First Floor Substack: https://firstfloor.substack.com/Follow Shawn: https://twitter.com/ShawnReynaldo

Demystifying AI training law with TechnoLlama
Everyone and their llama is talking about AI ethics and law, so we invited the high Llama Andres Guadamuz, an eminent researcher in AI and IP, to discuss the particularities and uncertainties of AI training law, in honor of his recent paper on the subject.

The Permaweird with Venkatesh Rao
After some weeks of nativity bliss and medical drama we are back! A joy to invite Venkatesh Rao to take us down a number of his bunny trails, focussing initially on his great piece The Permaweird, the latest in his Great Weirding series. We discuss the tendency to call "crisis!", a generally ambient sense of weirdness, and how the latest developments in AI suggest that isn't slowing down anytime soonThe Permaweird: https://studio.ribbonfarm.com/p/the-permaweirdSubscribe to Ribbonfarm: https://studio.ribbonfarm.com/Follow Venkatesh on twitter: https://twitter.com/vgr

Latent space exploration with Damien Roach aka patten
We caught up with Damien Roach, aka patten, aka 555-5555, to discuss the need for new language to navigate the abstract implications of machine learning for our understanding of art, and the limitations of the modernist approach. We also eventually get around to discussing his beautiful new record "Mirage FM" created in part with Riffusion, a text-to-audio model.Follow Damien: https://twitter.com/patttten / https://www.instagram.com/pattttenBuy "Mirage FM": https://patttten.bandcamp.com/album/mirage-fm
