AI Art and the Death of the Spirit
The rise, rapid development, and adoption of AI-generated art poses an existential question which goes beyond base issues of consumption, mass media, and copyright law. AI art challenges what it means to be human, what we can aspire to be, and the nature of existence beyond the realm of material reality.

21 Nights of Hávamál (stanzas 73 through 80) These are my modern interpretations of the verses of the Hávamál, like if Odin had a Mastodon account. 73. Don’t talk shit when you’re outnumbered, Expect that everyone has a hidden weapon. 74. You’ll sleep better at night if you feel prepared for bad weather, In autumn, the weather changes quickly each day, and more in a month. 75. Fools do not know that they know nothing, Those born rich don’t know what it’s like to be poor. 76. Everything dies, even yourself, But good deeds will be remembered. 77. Everything dies, even yourself, But a dead person’s reputation will be remembered. 78. I’ve seen people who were rich, and now they’re poor, Fortunes can change in the blink of an eye. 79. If a fool falls in love or gains wealth, It will go to their head. 80. You can be sure that if you consult the runes that the Wise One made, They will tell you that silence is always a safe bet. #21NightsOfHavamal
CatIt is almost time for my annual reading of the Hávamál, in honor of Odin, the Wise One and Allfather. I have done this every winter around the solstice for the past 8 years, and I learn something new on every read-through.
I will start on the eve of December and read 8 stanzas per night until the Winter Solstice. If anyone wants to join me, I’ll be posting my take on them each evening under the hashtag #21NightsOfHavamal

Doc_McCulloughI have always been curious if #Havamal was read (or recited/listened to) in what we would think of today as a religious context, or if it was more literary in nature. Recognizing, of course, how much those things can and do overlap.
Any #OldNorse #Literature and #poetics folks out there have any input?

som heim er komen
og om pengpungen kulsar.
Til gods og gull
den mann hev trong
som på krita i Sudrland hev fari" Hávamál for en nyere tid. #Allheimen #Havamal #NorskTut
