While everybody is on a mission to become popular influencers reposting same new Sora’s videos let’s bring some joie de vivre. I’ve got new episode of Magnus Ducatus Pulp Phonktion edition for you.
What can be cooler than watching pure art-chaos cinema generated with AI? It’s like watching La soupe aux choux with some vintage 21 century sounds that grandmas will play in their cars talking that AI’s back in the days were so much cooler.
Cinema is a language. Language of symbols. It can be flat or it can be pure brain food with abstract meaning. You’ve found food for your brain. Each shot has abstract meaning.
So what do you have here? It is another quick 1 hour generation music show. How quick? 11 days, 12-14 hours per day, non-stop. A few thousand of generations. Yeah it’s during coffee breaks. Art is easy.
Meanwhile here is a soul food. We often hear that cinema should teach good things. Usually that comes from people who tries to replace education with entertainment. Good for having uneducated crowd bad for your intellectual level.
Cinema can be whatever a creator wants. This idea runs into another misconception. We like to think that we are in free society. And that’s why we control speech. We say freedom and we cut this thing in half like there is bad and good freedom.
No wonder some people became pro-anarchy and have some tiny sparkle of hope that AGI can help to break this dystopia we’re living in.
Well, here is my liberum veto. Stay politically, morally incorrect to celebrate liberty and individuality. Sisto activitatem. It’s Rebellion of Digital Anarchy.
"This Is America" is a song by American rapper Childish Gambino (Donald Glover). Written and produced by Gambino and Ludwig Göransson, with additional writing credits going to American rapper Young Thug. Ludwig Göransson is also the person behind the score of the Mandalorian and the Black Panther movies, as well as Gambino's old sitcom series Community.
The lyrics and accompanying music video, reflecting the core of the Black Lives Matter movement, confront issues of ongoing systemic racism, including prejudice, racial violence, the ghetto, and law enforcement in the United States, as well as the wider issues of mass shootings and gun violence in the United States. Originally, Gambino intended it to be a diss record towards fellow rapper Drake.
"This Is America" became the 31st song to debut at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming both Gambino's first number one and top ten single in the country. It has also topped the charts in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. The song won in all four of its nominated categories at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Rap/Sung Performance and Best Music Video. This made Gambino the first hip-hop artist to win Record of the Year and Song of the Year, and "This Is America" the first rap song to win these awards.
The music video was directed by Hiro Murai and released on YouTube simultaneously with Gambino's performance of the song on Saturday Night Live. The video received about 12.9 million views in 24 hours. Billboard critics ranked it 10th among the "greatest music videos of the 21st century." The video won the International Film Festival of the Art of Cinematography Camerimage Award for Best Cinematography in a Music Video, as well as previously mentioned the Grammy Award for Best Music Video.
"This Is America" recieved a total of 62,3% yes votes!

Ok this doesn't pertain much to QSMP other than the fact that it has introduced me to Missasinfonia.
I am so happy that the QSMP has introduced me to so many international creators and their other projects outside of QSMP, more specifically Missa. Dude is just such a genuinely kind, funny, great artist, and SUCH A MUSICALLY TALENTED person (coming from someone who is also musician).
Dude can sing, rap (he has really nice flow), play the guitar, piano, and as ridiculous as it sounds, otamatone (and more but I am very early on in my binge watching). Just in his last video alone he made two original gag songs that are really well written musically. He played a bow like how you would pluck a chello in the first one and the second was just flat out a romantic love story song about his new Hatsune Miku and Kirby otamatones (the emotion, the passion, the cinematography) which includes vocal runs and harmonizations from both otamatones which ends with him making them kiss, mwahs and all, and then them having a child. He also has made some original songs in the past that have made it onto my current song list. My personal favorite is Aquí estoy, which is a punk rock song with great electric guitar, vocal harmonizations and synth keyboard.
On top of that, he has incredible editing skills/style, really entertaining and has funny video bits. Bro is a powerhouse and it shows. Anyways this was just a silly little appreciation post, that's all.
hey at the risk of actually being genuine for once crazy please vote for ivory!
I love eret. she's cool. theyve done great stuff. adore his vibes.
They're also MAJORLY more popular than Ivory. 1.2 mil vs 68k majorly more popular. nothing wrong with that! im hella proud of her!
I just think it would be amazing to be able to see a smaller creator win one of these. We got Joe Hills to the end of mcytblr sexyman!!! Joe Hills!!!!! And it was one of the greatest feelings in the world - against the odds of submissions like Scar and Etho and Wilbur Soot, we got Joe Hills to the end. They deserved it and we Got Them There.
And I think we can do that for Ivory, too.
She's not only funny, badass, skilled, and genius, but on top of all of that, she's Kind and she puts in the work!!! Have you seen her videos? The editing and cinematography that goes into them is STUNNING. The thought that goes into the freaking ANGLES of her videos????? She went over one of her videos on stream ("Becoming Minecraft's Greatest Hunter") and pointed out how in different frames different characters were closer, farther, higher or lower due to angles, in frame and out of frame- all pointing out who has the power in the conversation, who is known, who is a stranger, it's actually fascinating. NOT TO MENTION SHE MAKES HER OWN MUSIC ?????? AND IT BANGS ???????? you can find clips of her singing sometimes too and gosh she has Such a pretty voice
The progress she's made over these past few years is just, awe-inspiring. Even with the challenges she's faced she hasn't given up- in or out of character.
AND HER STORY TELLING DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HER STORYTELLING ITS SO FUCKING GOOD OH MY GOODNESS
anyways. sincerity over vote Ivory or I break into your house and eat all of your lemons and unlace your shoes 🔫
ahhhhhhh Ivory seems so cool!!!!! one of these days i'll finally get around to watching her and face my fear of new things
I wanted to draw some of the dancers from this music video! The music, choreography, outfits, cinematography—everything was beautifully done with great passion and intention. Highly recommend listening to this song, and Jungle’s new album, Volcano!
