The Piano Played with 16 Increasing Levels of Complexity: From Easy to Very Complex

Remember the feeling of accomplishment as a child, picking out a simple tune after your first piano lesson? Then the day you begin to play with both hands? So grown up. Eventually you start using more than two fingers.

Common Corpus, an open training set for AI, goes global – and so should support for it

As many of the AI stories on Walled Culture attest, one of the most contentious areas in the latest stage of AI development concerns the sourcing of training data. To create high-quality large language models (LLMs) massive quantities of training data are required. In the current genAI stampede, many companies are simply scraping everything they can off the Internet. Quite how that will work […]

I've talked a lot about our toys, and why we make them, but I figure I should explain again.

I make the toys that I want to see in the world.

I've been collecting toys for years, but those toys are so often made by or in service of corporations that want to lock up our culture and burn our planet.

So I created my own characters, started writing, mined the public domain, and started making my own toys and telling my own stories.

Stories that don't enrich some far off corporation or overstuffed capitalist, toys that are made sustainably, by people who are being paid a reasonable amount of money.

We tell stories that reflect our values, it's #CommunityMedia, and we're making toys that reflect those values too.

It's one part #anticapitalism, on part #openculture, and a small dose of #smallThings

We can't do it without your support, so if you see something you like in the toys that we make, boost it. If you want something, and you can afford it, buy it.

Ask questions, help us tell stories.

Thanks.

Stream 4,000+ Public Domain Movies on WikiFlix: Silent Classics, Academy Award-Winners, Hitchcock Films & More

Humanity was already enjoying motion pictures a century ago. But the ability to do so at home still lay a few decades in the future, and the ability to pull up a movie on demand through a streaming service much further still.
