#introduction
Kia ora 👋
I’m Jamie, based in Aotearoa New Zealand 🇳🇿

I’m an ambivert. I enjoy getting to know people and good conversation, but I’m happiest easing into spaces rather than being the center of attention straight away. I’ll jump into discussions when I know the topic and feel confident holding my own, especially where individual perspectives actually matter.

I love being outdoors: camping, fishing, and long walks to reset my brain.
Indoors, I’m usually bouncing between games ( #DnD, #Catan, #LeagueofLegends, #Minecraft, and a soft spot for sandbox / RPG / crafting worlds), food adventures, and whatever media has my attention that week.

I like building things, setting systems up, and tweaking ideas that smarter people came up with first, but I’m equally happy just enjoying good design, good food, and good stories. Music-wise I’m all over the place (except country), with a long-standing love for Twenty One Pilots and currently vibing Ren.

Online, I try to avoid performative controversy. I post to start conversations, not win arguments. I like thoughtful interaction and hearing how different people see things. Expect curiosity, questions, and the occasional “what do you reckon?” post.

Coffee in the morning (and a refill before 2pm), night owl by nature 🌙☕

Here to learn, share, and connect. Nice to meet you.

On its own Cel Shading looks kind of ugly (though some video games have gotten away with it), lacking in the human touch it tries to evoke.

What recent films, since 2018's Into The Spiderverse, have found is that to make it work for a feature film we need to find ways to inject that human touch back into it.

Spiderverse used machine learning so artists could teach it how better to "ink" various video frames. I presume they trained a convolutional neuralnet on their own renders.

2/2 Fin!

Then Arcane took this to its logical conclusion by spending a quarter billion dollars to make every frame look like a renaissance painting. Definitely worth it.

"How do you texture it to look like a painting"
"We paint"
(quote from their making of documentary, "Arcane: Bridging the Rift")

A short clip from the animated series Arcane (2021–2024), season 2, episode 6, The Message Hidden Within the Pattern. Isha, a young girl around 6 years old with brown hair partially dyed blue, is facing the camera and holding a gun in her left hand. The gun is shaking and crackling with bluish white lightning streaks. With her right hand, Isha makes a finger gun gesture towards the camera. Behind her, something is moving that looks like a giant monster that glows like lava.
