Man this hurts seeing an valuable longtime member leave Holwork. we hope you return
It is a painful thing seeing Holworks leave IMPNATION, I hope he comes back,
As it stands it looks bleak for that to happen

Yeah, it totally sucks. And I haven't seen any recent posts from Donna, either. I hope she didn't decide to quit, too.

Larree, Donna's artist page is still there.
Not a quitter.

Thanks, Norm. Yes, her pages have not been removed, but she has not been actively participating on the Pipeline like she was a few months ago.

Larree, she only usually comes around a few times a year. to the pipeline anyway.

True. But I wonder if the negativity caused her to step back this time.

As creativity ebbs and flows, so does participation in these locales. I myself am an example.

I feel bad because I am the one who brought the AI into the IMP mix. I totally get the arguments against it. And if I were one of the noobs who have never played an instrument or written a song before, claiming to be the next Prince, about to release the 400 songs I "wrote" this weekend, all disdain would be rightfully deserved. AI is a much different tool/toy in the hands of someone who has even a basic understanding of music composition and form. And in the hands of a seasoned pro... Hell, I think Bry is doing amazing work in Suno, and he is newer to the game than I.
Re: Ethics.
I make a point of heavily labeling my AI work. No one says I have to, but I definitely do want to. Transparency is important to me. I even created the Larree AI artist page to keep that experiment in the lab. Because it is an experiment. And like any good research scientist (not that I am a research scientist, but I do hang out at Caltech with the smart kids), I will gladly publish the results of my work and how I reached my musical conclusions.
And one more thing...
The music industry has never done a god damned bit of good for me, so I don't care if they shit their pants over AI.
Peace! And come back, Holo!

hey Larree, just to be straight here, hope you know that Holworks is not our old political friend Holo Lukaloa, in case you didn't. ha ha
I got a big announcement. I just spoke to Mark (Holworks) and he's going to start his page back up again. I expressed how we all wanted him back and he's going to putting up some new music soon~!

Oh, I didn't think Holo was that Holo, Scott, lol. And that is great news! Glad he's coming back. I think I once got pissed off over something and pulled my music down. But that was in the day of phone modems, and damn, it took forever to reupload!

I thank all of you who noticed. Scott hollered at me as did Mike, so that made me feel like I need to at least stay in the loop. I am now officially a porch frog ribbit, . . .ribbit.
