Body Swap Shift

Comments and Stuff.

Over a long enough time period, I try to respond to most people's comments. I realize I am at a point where that could start to prove to be a bit more of a challenge. Please note that if I do not respond, it is not a personal insult of any kind. Here's what can leave a comment unanswered:

(1) Google Filter/Sort Function. These are weird. Sometimes they just make a comment VERY hard to find. I can often see 15 comments are placed, yet it only shows me 14 comments. Finding that last comment can often be a challenge.

(2) I'm Trying to Be Thoughtful. It can actually be hard to find something to say! Particularly if you comment was very thoughtful; I want to be thoughtful in exchange, but sometimes this takes time. Then it gets buried under newer comments! This is my least favorite thing when it happens.

(3) Repeats. Not necessarily exact duplicates, but someone says, "Next part" and another person says, "Part 2, please!" It can be very hard for me to respond in different ways.

(4) Life Happens. Sometimes I am just plain busy with life!

Anyway, this is my advanced apology for any failings!

...because sometimes being eccentric and weird and going over the top with something is fun.

The soundtrack for "The Metamorphosis" is up now at:
ai-tg.ct.ws/shiftedrecords/

(There's a weird cookies issue where I can't seem to link directly to the album itself.)

But, essentially, to go along with the whole 90s/00s era comedy theme for The Metamorphose (https://youtu.be/thN5VmuCHE0), I ended up creating an entire soundtrack album for it. These things used to be commonplace, and it felt appropriate for that true parody effect to make this a thing.

Also, creating parody band names was sort of the best thing ever.

Working on a little something as a Bandcamp alternative...

ai-tg.ct.ws/shiftedrecords/

Just because I don't feel comfortable putting things up on Bandcamp anymore, I am giving myself an alternative that I control completely. The previous compilation is up, along with "How Do I Look?" from S41FT. More will be placed there over time...

Actively working on an adaptation of Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis."

People like transformations into giant, gross bugs, right?

That's why everyone here follows me, right?

As of this weekend, these are my most disliked videos:

1. S41FT (시프트) - "Odd One Out"
2. Drop Dead Swap
3. We Want You (to Swap Bodies)
4. Transphobes Go to Hell
5. S41FT (시프트) - "How Do I Look?"

Despite both S41FT (시프트) music videos coming in amongst my most disliked, you may have noticed that I made a THIRD one earlier this week. Why? Because they're fun to make, and I love these characters. And I love what I can do with them. I always enjoy the creation process making a much video with them. I'm probably not going to STOP working on them...ever. They have just become a part of my channel.

Now, there are two other videos on this list that happen to be somewhat political. That's probably not going to stop either.

*As another note, the third S41FT video seems to be much more liked, but it still has an amazingly low view count. Basically, I do what I like doing and will continue to do so.

New S41FT video is dropping on Monday! It's about a brain transplant -- which I find it weird this will be first video exploring brain transplants!

I was working on writing a post about how I am prepared to be a sell out -- or at least to stop feeling guilty when I do decide to sell out (more on this later) -- when I came across an offer for a sponsored video in my inbox. I ended up sending this message:

>>I looked over your site, and at this time, I will have to pass.
>>
>>While the AI nature of my work is important to me, the gender
>>inclusion aspect of my work is even more important to me.
>>At this time, I do not feel there is enough on your site to
>>accurately capture non-binary choices for me to do any
>>sort of promotional work with my channel.

I'm not naming the company because I do not feel they were malicious in their choice to not be inclusive of non-binary people; it was probably simply a product/engineering/time decision. Still, it's not like I could feel GOOD about doing a promotional video for a product that excluded a non-binary option.

The long and short of it is: I'm not particularly good at being a sell out.

Decided to make a webpage that allows you to sort and organize AI generates videos with a transformation or TG theme. Right now it's just my own videos, but the button to submit videos of your own is there too!

(Try to have any submitted videos be at least a minute in length and have some sort of theme or genre in mind with reasonable non-SEO-ish titles.)
