1/ AI x ART

🖌🎨 x 💻 = 🤯

One of my favorite (real life) artist’s work (who did series of lifesize paintings of comicbook heroes morphed + mashed…)

inspired me to describe it in prompts to #midjourney––And i feel like i just commissioned a set of personalized pieces…
2/ A few others #midjourney
PROMPT:collage of chopped up comic book superheroes, pasted together,swirling,morphing,flowing,stretching across white canvas + cinematic,hyperrealistic,gorgeous abstration +colors black & white & grey w/pops of vibrant red + laser blue + burnt orange calligraphy ink, —ar 16:9
PROMPT🤯
award-winning detailed, technical, scientific, fine illustration of high-resolution microscopic image of mitochondria inside cells, connected like a network labels,glossy,colors black, white,light green,rich blue, burnt orange calligraphy ink with call-out labels —q 3
6/ Others from above PROMPT
7/ Other variations + original PROMPT from #midjourney
8/ Lyric from @Tool Lateralus visualized🤯

‘Black then white are all I see in my infancy, Red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me’
9/ next lyric from @tool Lateralus visualized 🤯
‘Drawn beyond the lines of reason’…
10/ next line from @tool Lateralus visalized 🤯

“Push the envelope, watch it bend”
11/ version 1 of next lyric from “Lateralus” by @Tool

“…Reaching out to embrace the random, Reaching out to embrace whatever may come…”

#midjourney
12/ next lyric of Lateralus by @Tool 🤯

As “imaginged”/rendered by #midjourneyAi

“Reaching out to embrace the random, Reaching out to embrace whatever may come, cinematic, hyperrealistic, gorgeous abstraction, render, morphing, flowing”
13/ THAT random thread above i had from wondering what each line of lyrics from a Tool song (Lateralus) would look like visualized by AI art…

was the stepping stone ala @kenneth0stanley

that prompted the memory of actualy artist i like and morphed into this…
14/ And then ultimately stepping stones…🪨…🪨…🪨…🪨
to this…(where the thread started…)
15/ one more…
@Tool @adamjones_tv

AI art prompt:
scientists made in the animation character style of brothers quay

1/SCENT (trade) MARKING

MARK your SCENT
Animals do it.
Companies do it.

This picture almost surely invokes a smell in your brain!

Play-Doh around since 1955…
just got a trademark in 2018 for its SCENT… Image
2/ USPTO granted a trademark
on the signature smell of PLAY-DOH to Hasbro

the words are like an AI art prompt!
(like DALL-E/MidJourney/StableDiffusion)

“sweet, slightly musky, vanilla fragrance with slight overtones of cherry, combined with smell of a salted, wheat-based dough” Image
3/ Verizon recently trademarked a “flowery musk” for its stores and United Airlines has a “Landing” scent (orange peel, cedar, sandalwood, leather)

Scents need to satisfy 2 KEY THINGS to get trademark
-functionality
-distinctiveness

1/ The power of the TECH OF SCIENCE! 🤯

STRUCTURE x FUNCTION

Lux family co @Gandeeva_Tx founder Sriram Subramanian just published KEY NEW paper using Cryo-EM 🔬microscopy to reveal a non-obvious antibody fragment that…

neutralizes ALL VARIANTS of COVID🦠
2/ The power of ‘cryo-em’ is like seeing atomic level resolution of tiny proteins + antibodies in what is almost like Matrix-bullet-time-style…

…think of it like seeing the perfect shape every nook + cranny + crevice of a LOCK🔒––so that you can go design a KEY 🔑 (aka 💊)
3/ What @Gandeeva_Tx founder Sriram’s group was able to do was see every mutation and reveal every teeny tiny lock…

1/ Releasing NEW Lux quarterly letter to LPs

our theme: making MEANING + making MONEY

-‘Epistolary Imperative’
-next year 2023 will be “Twenty-Twenty-RE”
(RE-covery -constituting -pricing, -investing)
-“EXTENTIONALISM”
-information in prices
-matter that matters
-& much more…
2/ The point in writing these letters is to
-congeal observations of occurrences, information or events once concealed and now revealed
-crystallize ideas of what may be
-condense them into words for sharing (hey read this!) + signaling (hey we’re no fools!)
3/ MEANING can be powerfully created or destroyed

deeply embedded in objects + technologies
or coldly abstracted + decoupling from them…

Consider Derek DelGaudio’s ‘gold brick’ from In & Of Itself––only those in the know of his story see deep meaning in othewise ignored object

1/ This week’s issue of Lux’s“Securities” by @DannyCrichton

…is EXCEPTIONAL.

“Truth and reputations”––by @Lux_Capital

getrevue.co/profile/lux_ca…
2/ Where does REPUTATION end + TRUTH began?

“…The quantified measurement of truth is often impossible, which forces us to find proxies”

…“REPUTATIONS are always a trailing indicator of TRUTH”

Until it reverses and “PERCEPTION has overshot TRUTH”
3/ …Where does the REPUTATION end + the TRUTH begin?

CONSIDER: Adam Neumann, Masayoshi Son + the CDC

1/ HOW OLD ARE YOU?

There’s
1. Chronological age––when you were born
2. Biological age–– your different cells, organs + systems are different ages

Lux has had long standing theses + interest in mechanics of intracellular, intercellular and emergent phenomena of CHRONOBIOLOGY
2/ It goes back to researchers like
Seymour Benzer + Joseph Takahashi (Nobel Prize) who used forward mutagenesis to figure out which genes were responsible for circadian rhythms…
3/ CHRONOBIOLOGY includes everything from heart-rate, sleep-wake cycles, hibernation, menstrual cycles at time periods that range from nanoseconds inside of cells to days to seasons to years to decades…

1/ FUTURE of LIFE SCIENCE
has clear directional arrow of progress

WET LABS🧪👩‍🔬🔬🧫––
fully automated (running 24/7)
accessible remotely via cloud
producing more data than ever
with AI/ML processing for insights
+ comparing with old data + publication…
2/ With cutting-edge software from ELN (electronic lab notebooks) + LIMS (lab information management systems) that usher the ANALOG and siloed into the DIGITAL and networked…

From the likes of Lux co’s like @benchling….
3/ To cutting-edge bioinformatics (end-to-end CRISPR platform)—enabling cell + gene therapy startup

like Lux family co @LatchBio
