Ok, if you're a VA who uses commissions or art from image libraries, I'm gonna give some quick tips on how to avoid getting scammed or duped by AI images. It's getting harder and harder to avoid them. Besides the known visual signs, here's some red flags I've found the hard way.

If I want custom art, I normally commission or request it from people within the audio RP community, but there have been times when I used sites like Fiverr when on a time crunch. I myself almost got scammed there, so here are some easy red flags.

No line art or sketch option available on their pricing list. This is a big red flag. Actual artists usually allow this option.

No work in progress options offered by the seller. Revisions only offered when a complete product has been delivered. Real artists don't do this, and would rather get revision feedback at the sketch stage.

No interest in reference images. They're only interested in prompt input.

If you don't use custom art, be careful. A lot of image libraries are clogged with AI images now too. Most have them tagged. If you use any, be mindful to look for images tagged as AI-generated and avoid those platforms completely. Even paid libraries like Adobe Stock now have more and more AI shit clogging their output. If you're searching a platform like deviantArt and asking the artists permission to use an image of theirs, check their other art. If there's no consistent, discernible art style, they're probably posting AI shit. Avoid them too.

Also, look for all the other tell-tale signs of course, and never hurry. It's easy to get tricked if you just give a cursory glance. I've seen VAs get duped before and I very nearly got duped once on Fiverr before because I didn't look closely at the "artists" portfolio (I was thankfully able to get a refund after fighting tooth and nail for it). I've seen VAs that used to rely on services like Adobe Stock or free image libraries like Pixabay get duped when they started introducing AI to their stock images. I hate that this is an issue now but you have to be careful.

Anyway, I think the best option is to use art from people within the audio RP community. Showcase their work, buy commissions, whatever, just stick with people that you know are real human artists and part of the community. It's hell out there right now.

This is Arthur, we’ve got the after action report. You probably already saw everything but… it was bad. This guy’s a genuine monster, but we’re all alive. I’ll just let the recording play.

- Arthur Whitehorse

{Begin Audio visual playback} :

{Sounds of explosions and battle, Union Liberation squadron 167 “Five Man Band” approaches last known location of Lancer Hoshone Turakkis “Randance” and Terrorist [ALIAS NOT FOUND] “Windvale”}

Come on people, we’re almost there! Sevak! Prism! Lemon! Keep us covered! Ashlyn, we’re going in! Windvale’s right where we want ‘em!

Yes sir!

- Command recieved. 👍

Don’t worry Torchbearer, we’ll keep the ‘chauvs off your back!

Thanks… let’s and this Whitehorse.

Let’s.

{The recording quality dips severely for a moment as the two enter a ruined building, after a quick firefight with two Assault Class mechs, the two find a large hangar. Inside is a Starfarer class personal cruiser, a Goblin Class frame, and Lancer “Raindance”. Raindance is in poor health, his face covered in bruises and dried blood with a bomb collar around his neck. Windvale holds the pilot in a chokehold}

Jesus the Buddha Christ…

Well well well, if it isn’t the CorpsePilot, and who’s this? You wanted to bring a friend? I brought one too!

{Unintelligible groan}

Windvale… where do you think this is going to go? You think I care if this… this backstabber does?! Kill him for all I care! Besides, you’ll be shot down before you even breach atmosphere!

You see, that’s where your wrong-

{Torchbearer steps towards Windvale}

Don’t fucking move! Another step and your cockpit gets painted red! I don’t think you, or your friend here wants to see that, huh?

What are you talking about?

Shut up and listen. You too, I know “Hosh” here was getting chummy with the folks upstairs.

{The Goblin frame stares directly towards the recording device on the mech}

I have a deadman’s switch. It’s set to pop my partner here’s head. Then turn the neural port I gave Ashlyn into something that’ll put a Tokugawa’s reactor to shame, then, it’ll detonate every explosive I’ve set across the city. Yeah she’s mostly rubble but we both know how many civilians are still in here. That’s quite the body count you know, so I recommend you step back. Now.

You son of a bit-

Ashlyn! Step back, it’s not just you at risk here, but everyone in the city. The rest of the team included. Do as they say.

{Both mechs step away from Windvale}

Yeah CorpsePilot. Do what I say. So here’s how this is gonna work. I’m getting on that ship, and I’m leaving the system. If anyone even looks at me funny, everything goes boom. You two don’t move from this spot either, or that’ll make the corpse part of CorpsePilot more literal than usual. As for you, partner? I suppose after all this, it’s only fair to let someone else decide what to do with you. I’ve gotten what I needed from you.

{Windvale throws Raindance to the floor}

Anything you need to tell me CorpsePilot? I get the feeling we won’t be seeing each other for a while.

I’ll find you, you sick freak! This isn’t over!

When is it ever. I’ll catch you on the flipside CorpsePilot, and you, partner? I’ll never forget our time together! It’s been fun Etruscia, but I’ve got better things to do then stay here!

{Windvale bows, and enters the spaceship, as it starts up, and flies out of the hangar, towards the sky.}

I- Command did you get that? What the hell are we supposed to d-

{Torchbearer exits her mech, and unholsters her service pistol, pointing it towards Raindance}

Give me a reason not to.

Ashlyn wait-

Give me a reason! You killed Ashlyn! The real one, you killed her friends, you betrayed everything she stood for! So give me a reason not to avenge her right now!

{A prolonged period of silence}

… I can’t, just get it over with.

{Another long silence, before Torchbearer raises her service piston to the roof and fires three shots, before collapsing to the ground.}

{Torchbearer is heard sobbing as Whitehorse exits his chassis, and approaches Torchbearer}

Command, we need an extraction as soon as possible. It’s… it’s over.

{End audio visual playback.}

GREETINGS. IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT. YOU DID WHAT YOU COULD. GET CALLSIGN TORCHBEARER TO THE MEDICAL WING AND WE WILL ATTEMPT TO DISARM HER IMPLANT. IN THE MEANTIME WE WERE ABLE TO PLANT A TRACKING BUG ON WINDVALE'S SHIP. HE WILL NOT ELUDE US FOREVER. YOU DID WELL, HORSEMEN. TIME TO REST. SIGNED - [MAG-MELL]

HotD Episode 7 Live Reaction

But if you close your eyes, does it always feel like nothing's changed at all. But at least there be dragons.

I stiil don't like that Seasmoke fell in Addam's lap. Addam should have been the one to actively claim Seasmoke. I just really don't like HBO's insistence on "power is better wielded by those who don't want it."

"I may appear lowborn but I know much and more of service." Those two statements shouldn't have a "but" between them.

Maester Orwyle continues to be the surprise MVP of the greens.

The Master of Laws Iron Rod getting dialogue? The rumor mill works fast in Westeros.

I like that the nobility are putting so much resistance to lowborn claiming dragons. If there's anything that threatens highborn, it's social mobility.

For "20 years the lords of this realm levied insults against my sons," Jace confirmed to be 20. So he's just one year younger than Aegon? Now that wouldn't make sense because Rhaenyra wasn't even married during Aegon's first nameday during that hunt episode. Good to know Jace has been aged up though. He, Aegon, and Cregan are probably all in the same ballpark age.

I love Addam's acting, he's almost as expressive as TGC. But why are the interaction scenes on this show so short? "The family doesn't know how to communicate their feelings" yeah, yeah, but at least write down for them to have SOMETHING to say. Corlys came to this room literally just to say 6 words.

They should have given Oscar Tully red hair to make him stand out from the Riverlords. The scales on his armor are cool, but there should be more to visually signal that this kid is basically a petty king.

The camera following it's actors from the back is kinda...not doing it for me. I don't wanna see their hunched backs, I want to look at the sets and their faces.

"We honor the old ways." Most of y'all don't, though? Only certain houses in the Riverlands worship the Old Gods, one of them being the Blackwoods who are being accused of going against the "old ways." What do the HBO writers think the "old ways" mean?

Out of all decapitations on this series, this one had the least punch. Music and sound design did all the heavy lifting.

STOP SHOWING THEIR BACKS I DON'T WANNA SEE THE ACTORS' BACKS ANYMORE

Also, I can't imagine how this war will end if the Blackwoods aren't black loyalists. With Daemon executing their House head, I don't see them being that enthusiastic about supporting Rhaenyra anymore. Are they just gonna replace Benjicot with Oscar? And Aly is just...gone now? Who's gonna stop Cregan Stark then?

Again, we're just letting whoever inside the king's room even when he says they can't come in? Guards really suck on this show.

Alyn's voice is like honey. I could listen to this man read audio books.

And they just let the Targaryen princess run off like that? The guards on this show really suuuuuuuuck.

Poor Rickard Thorne dragged into Alicent's impromptu camping trip.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEY JACE, LOVE CLASSIST JACE. LOVE AEGON'S DREAM CRITICAL JACE. EEEEEY JACE AWARE THAT WHEN RHAENYRA DIES PEOPLE WON'T ACCEPT HIM. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. Finally some character drama and juicy interpersonal conflict that makes sense with characters clearly stating their stance through dialogue and we don't have to fill in the blanks as the audience. I was so starved. They actually made what was in the book better with this one.

I like Hugh the Hammer's new storyline, sue me. It's a cliche call-to-adventure fantasy peg, but I like it.

"I need more dragons to end bloodshed." Rhaenyra, what do you think dragons do? Rhaenyraaaaaaa

Beautiful Vermithor shot. And of course they leave all these innocent poor people to the mercy of a merciless behemoth. Ugh, beautiful, blood sacrifice, cruelty, impressive sfx, yessss.

CLAIM THAT DRAGON. CLAIM THAT DRAGON. DO IT NAMED CHARACTER, you have a name and backstory so you can do it!

"Come on!!!" Vermithor: Well...when you put it like that, I suppose.

Nana Silverwing! She looks gorgeous.

WAIT, WHY DID THEY TAKE HER TO KING'S LANDING??? WHY IS KL AND DRAGONSTONE LITERALLY 5 MINUTES AWAY

Todd Rundgren at Andrew J. Brady Music Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, April 24, 2024

Todd Rundgren had nothing to say besides Thank you and We love you, Cincinnati at the end of the gig on Wednesday night in the Queen City. The typically talkative musician instead let a career-spanning collection of deep cuts handle communications with his audience, which on April 24 filled about half of the Andrew J. Brady Music Center’s 2,800 seats.

The Me/We tour is one for the faithful, with long-dormant tracks such as 1995’s subdued “Beloved Infidel” and novelties like 2004’s “Stood Up” returning to the setlist for the first time in ages. “Down with the Ship,” Rundgren’s 2022 joint with Rivers Cuomo, meanwhile, is just getting its sea legs and the goofy sea shanty works well alongside the eclectic sonic smorgasbord that found Rundgren conducting synth strings and soprano sax with a baton on the balladic “Kindness” from 1991, playing a searing guitar solo on 2000’s “Buffalo Grass” and proving his compositional prescience on the now entirely relevant rap-rocker “Fascist Christ” from 1993.

In a nod to any casual fans who may have attended, Rundgren began the encore with the first half of “I Saw the Light” segued into the bridge of “Can We Still be Friends?,” which led into the coda of “Hello it’s Me” before the dramatic fan favorite “The Last Ride” and “A Dream Goes on Forever” ended the gig.

Backed by five long-time compatriots - bassist Kasim Sulton and drummer Prairie Prince; Bobby Strickland on keyboards, woodwinds and programming; keyboardist Gil Assayas; and guitarist Bruce McDaniel - Rundgren played 24 songs over 125 minutes, as the black-clad band was bathed in white, red, blue, green and yellow hues from a generous light show that augmented the selections flawlessly.

Strong visuals notwithstanding, sublime audio, from the band and the venue’s sound system, was the focus. Drawing from more than one-dozen solo and Utopia albums connecting 1972’s Something/Anything? to 2022’s Space Force, Rundgren, per his wont, also covered a diverse stylistic template, as he switched from lead guitarist to band leader who paced the lip of the stage sans instrument and tossed in some EDM in the form of “Flesh & Blood” from 2015’s Global for good measure.

Opening with 1974’s ethereal “I Think You Know,” Rundgren celebrated the nature of his fanatical followers on Utopia’s 1985 dance track “Secret Society” before showing off his grimy guitar and gritty growl on 2008’s “Weakness.”

The initial triptych set the evening’s tone as Rundgren, 75, used his deepened voice to bring the songs into the present while the band provided the backgrounds that tied them to their era. To that end, Sulton and McDaniel joined Rundgren around a single mic for the a cappella “Honest Work,” which hushed any grabbers in the house, and “Hawking��� came off as a hybrid metaphysical worship service thanks to the veritable choir and a soaring saxophone solo from Strickland. The passage of time seemed to be a loose theme of the Me/We tour as Rundgren plumbed his discography for songs that explore the unknowable to come up with such tracks as “Lost Horizon” (1985), “Afterlife” and “God Said” from 2004 and “Worldwide Epiphany,” the 1993 celebration of figuring it all out.

The latter got the audience on their collective feet where they remained until the show ended.

Grade card: Todd Rundgren in Cincinnati - 4/24/24 - A

The Importance of Acoustic Consultancy Services in Saudi Arabia’s Growing Landscape

In a world where architectural marvels and infrastructure innovations are shaping the future, the role of sound in defining experiences is often overlooked. Our perception of spaces is influenced as much by our ears as by our eyes. This makes acoustics a critical element in creating successful buildings and environments. With Saudi Arabia undergoing rapid transformation and development, acoustic consultancy services have become more important than ever.

At DSP Consultants, we understand the vital role acoustics play in shaping spaces that inspire and function effectively. As a leading provider of acoustic consultancy services in the region, we help clients create environments where sound complements design and purpose.

Why Acoustics Matter in Saudi Arabia's Expanding Landscape

Saudi Arabia’s ambitious urban projects, such as NEOM, the Red Sea Project, and Riyadh’s Vision 2030 initiatives, demand world-class infrastructure that meets both aesthetic and functional goals. Acoustic performance is a key component of this success.

Whether it’s enhancing the auditory experience in concert halls or mitigating the noise impact of transport systems in urban areas, acoustics are fundamental to ensuring the comfort, productivity, and well-being of occupants. Poorly designed acoustic environments can lead to dissatisfaction, reduced efficiency, and compliance issues.

Optimizing Acoustic Experiences: From delivering exceptional sound quality in cultural venues like theaters and auditoriums to ensuring speech clarity in conference rooms and lecture halls, our team provides solutions that enhance auditory experiences.

Noise and Vibration Mitigation: With the rapid expansion of transportation networks and industrial zones in Saudi Arabia, controlling noise and vibration is paramount. We help clients meet regulatory requirements and minimize environmental impact.

Integration with Other Disciplines: Collaborating with audio-visual, architectural, and interior design teams, we integrate acoustic solutions seamlessly into the overall project design, ensuring a holistic outcome.

The Role of DSP Consultants in Shaping Saudi Arabia’s Soundscapes

Future Anime Girl Gestalt

As a breakthrough in silicon nanostructure materials makes photonics and near-eye displays cheap, smart glasses become the new ubiquitous computers, replacing smartphones. The always-on display provides unique opportunities for advertisers, as does new machine learning-assisted ad targeting. In the new omnipresent augmented reality, ads become personalized, three-dimensional, interactive displays, emerging from blank rectangles in subway stations. You see your facebook friends conversing animatedly, drinking budweiser.

As smart glasses become increasingly necessary for modern life, brands are able to invade further into perceived reality. Cars shine luxuriously. The name and price of your coworker's smartwatch floats above it. Of course many modern advertisements no longer directly sell a product or service, but rather create and maintain brand identities. Large corporations advertise on everyday objects--the plate at your favorite restaurant reveals the name of a software company as you finish your food. Your brother's anger turns him super saiyan, reminding you of the new episodes. A poor neighborhood turns into an alien-inspired techno-organic nightmare.

Many companies use characters to perpetuate their brand. These characters can be personalized--the insurance company mascot that shows up on your car dashboard during a harrowing rush hour is your favorite color, features large, expressive eyes, and is covered in shaggy fur.

Of course, machine learning algorithms can be unpredictable. And ad agencies could not anticipate the omnivalent memetic power of...

...anime girls.

The algorithm customizes your pepsi soda into a fizzy anime slime girl. They customize the call to your healthcare provider to raise the pitch of the representative's voice and translate the audio to Japanese (your glasses display English subtitles). The missiles you see striking a city in Iran are ridden by pale, northrop grumman-labeled anime maids.

As more human agency is ceded to enormous, power-chugging processing centers, the connections between everyday occurrences and brand presence become more abstract. Every character on a show you're not paying attention to, every old shoe you own, every person you interact with, every grain of sand on the beach, every floater in your eye, is an anime girl.

As humans do, they adapt. Generation Glass becomes accustomed to experiencing two entirely foreign sets of sense-data: one, their local, mundane world, of humming processors and concrete and scraggly trees. The other, the networked world, where your entire visual field is painted in overlapping anime girls of various sizes and your auditory vestibular nerve is drowned in high-pitched giggling. Each girl represents some object--pomegranate, sunset, friends, love, death.

As global civilization gently deflates under the pressure of climate change post-2100, so does the capacity to manufacture complex electronics. Within the space of a generation, billions of people are reduced to creating facile, vapid illustrations of the moving, living anime girls they once knew as bigotry and tarmac. Pictures of anime girls are used to label street signs, mathematical concepts, genders, religious texts. Ironically, anime girls become more incorporated into the real world than they ever were in the Glass period, because they adorn real surfaces. A post-traumatic behavior develops, in which a person destroys objects bearing anime girl images in an attempt to, according to one individual, "let them out," or otherwise restore networked consensus reality.

Thousands of years pass. Peregrine sophists of the Fifth Yyrzoc clan uncover an underground concrete structure. In it are glyphs of a single, big-eyed, pale, skinny, large-breasted woman with bright blue hair, surrounded by female figures in blood-red uniforms who are collapsed on the ground. The sophists are able to decode this message and avoid what we would recognize as a nuclear waste storage facility. They theorize that the figures are ancient feminine gods of radiation and death. Several etchings and illustrations are published by a notable scriptorium. Years later they are largely forgotten.

Was the Omegon system E123 Omega? Or was it just a similar name?

The ultimate lifeform sits back in his office chair, hands folded neatly on his lap.

"I believe that question is best answered by someone else."

"The someone else in question would be me." A new voice chimes in, layered with electronic distortion. On Shadow's desk, his monitor cuts on, revealing a dark background, and a single red audio visualizer."

"Your assumption is both correct, and incorrect."

"I will elaborate. I am E123 Omega."

"The Omegon system was indeed an artificial intelligence. It was, however, not an original."

"During my service under G.U.N., I would undergo routine maintenance to ensure 100% operational efficiency."

"During one of these maintenance checks, my mind was backed up to a secondary server while I was powered down. A digital copy of myself, down to my every memory. Only, now existing without a body."

"This copy was given the name, Omegon. Derivative, but effective in its purpose as an identifier."

"Omegon was manipulated by our employers. Its code, altered. My hatred for eggman robots, weaponized for their own purposes. With a push of a button, they were capable of altering its perception."

"To see even those I and it knew personally as if they were simple drones. Eggman imitations of mobian kind, like the likes of metal sonic. This made it easier to control and weaponize. It was inserted into the Omegon system's main terminal, and given access to its full arsenal. Held back only by the agents onboard, holding its reins."

"Omegon was used as a weapon to threaten, and in certain cases, inflict violence upon mobian civilizations that reaisted G.U.N. control."

"I did not discover the existence of my copy until the reveal of the Omegon system to the world. I abandoned G.U.N. shortly after, alongside the other members of the now disbanded Special Operations Unit, Team Dark. I was there during the final confrontation with the Omegon System. Upon our interaction, I was able to communicate with it."

"Unfortunately, I too was viewed as a copy. Eggman's cheap attempt at recreating me without my free will. At least, that is how it described me. A battle ensued."

"I was unfortunately incapable of halting its assault, or retrieving Omegon from the system's terminal. It was eliminated in the explosion following the reactor meltdown."

"To summarize my answer to your question. Yes. And. No."

"Thank you, Omega. You'll be notified if there are any further questions for you." Shadow says with a nod.

"Gratitude accepted. Statement acknowledged. Returning to prior tasks." The screen goes blank one more.

E123 Omega is now available for asks

Why Brands Should Never Skip Post-Production investment

[thisisbiggzfdf]

Empowering Artists Through Music Production

The Evolving Landscape of Independent Music

In today’s digital age, the music industry has drastically changed, giving more power and opportunity to independent creators. Unlike the past where musicians relied solely on record labels, modern artists now have direct access to tools and platforms that support self-driven careers. At the center of this transformation are services focused on Music Production and Independent Artist Services, which provide creative control and professional quality without the red tape of traditional contracts.

Independent artists now have the freedom to record, release, and promote their work on their own terms. But to compete on a professional level, high-quality music production is still a must. Without well-crafted beats, clean audio, and proper mixing, even the most talented artist may struggle to break through the noise.

Why Music Production Still Matters

While social media and streaming platforms have opened up countless doors, the core of a successful music career is still good music. Music production is no longer limited to high-end studios in Los Angeles or New York. Independent artists can now access professional-grade recording, engineering, and mastering services without a label budget.

A good music production service goes beyond just recording vocals. It includes beat selection or creation, sound design, mixing and mastering, and even genre-specific stylization to ensure the final product resonates with a target audience. Today’s listeners expect polished songs. Whether it’s hip hop, R&B, or pop, production quality can be the deciding factor between gaining a loyal fanbase or getting ignored.

Independent Artist Services: More Than Just Sound

Music production is only one piece of the puzzle. The rise of Independent Artist Services has bridged the gap between creative vision and business success. These services are designed to help artists manage the often-overwhelming backend of their careers. This includes music distribution, digital marketing, visual branding, press releases, playlist placements, social media strategy, and even legal support for music rights and publishing.

Independent Artist Services are crucial because they empower creatives to focus on their art while professionals handle everything else. Instead of hiring multiple freelancers or learning every aspect of the business alone, artists can find all-in-one services that support them holistically. This is especially important for up-and-coming talents who may not have a team yet but still aim to build a long-term career.

The Perfect Partnership: Production Meets Promotion

When music production and artist services work hand in hand, it creates a complete ecosystem for independent success. For instance, a rapper might record a new single with top-tier production quality. That same artist can then use an independent service to release the track on Spotify, pitch it to influencers, and promote it through visually engaging social media campaigns.

This synergy ensures that great music doesn’t go unheard. It also builds an artist’s brand in a sustainable and scalable way. Instead of going viral once and fading, artists develop solid foundations for fan engagement, growth, and revenue. Whether you’re releasing your debut EP or growing your catalog, having the right support system makes all the difference.

What to Look For in a Music Service Provider

With so many options available, it’s important to choose a partner that aligns with your creative goals. Look for providers that offer customized plans rather than one-size-fits-all packages. Transparent pricing, industry experience, and client testimonials are also good indicators of quality.

It’s even better if the provider understands your specific genre and audience. A good service doesn’t just help you sound better — it helps you be heard, seen, and respected in the space you want to thrive in.

In the age of independence, every artist has the chance to take control of their journey. Combining expert Music Production with tailored Independent Artist Services is the smartest way to ensure both sound and success align.
