An AI draws the contents of Link's and Gandalf's gear bags; If Jodorowsky directed Tron; Lament Configuration jack-in-a-box

HT to the brilliant person who knolled Gandalf's bag yesterday (can't find the link now.)

I had way too much fun knolling random things in #midjourney #v4

Knolling Gandalf's bag, next round.

Interestingly, MidJourney V4 decided to pack into Gandalf's bag a miniature version of Gandalf.#midjourney #aiart #aiia https://t.co/abZg7T1VFH pic.twitter.com/zc4nZWPV3j

Tron was shot in black and white; 2001's "floating" pen was taped to glass; Tobey Maguire really had to catch all those items

Tron (1982) was shot in black and white, sets were made of black fabric with white duct-tape for markers, the glow was later hand-painted onto every frame, imagine the work!! In this video we can see a test using a white suit with black markers for the glows pic.twitter.com/fl9U87bsBu

In 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) the floating pen sequence was made by gluing the pen with transparent duct tape to a giant glass and just moving it around, camera focused on center so you can't see the edges. pic.twitter.com/1BYwRkmJOl

In Spider-Man (2002) scene where Peter Parker catches the tray and objects wasn't CGI. Tray had a sticky substance so stuff wouldn't roll when falling but Tobey Maguire had to catch them, it took 156 takes. The studio wanted this scene cut because of how long it was taking. pic.twitter.com/JZzfbjIPgc

Tron:Uprising concept art

Cartoon Brew posted a big gallery of Tron: Uprising concept art and storyboards. I took the liberty of cropping two of Alberto Mielgo's paintings into widescreen wallpapers. Here's links to the Tron art team's personal websites. And if you haven't watched the first episode yet, here it is:



(The main character is absurdly generic, Tron's face looks a little silly, computer world helicopters don't make much sense to me, and the arena choreography doesn't look quite right. But otherwise, terrific episode. It's also free in iTunes.)

Tron light cycle board game

Homemade Tron light cycle board game:

- The board is made from two pieces of smoked acrylic, which I etched on an Epilog laser cutter at my local Tech Shop. The grid was originally supposed to be edge-lit by LEDs, but the tint in the acrylic kept the light from penetrating. So, I taped off and painted the grid with blacklight-reactive paint.
- I cut the light trails out of fluorescent orange and blue acrylic, also on the laser cutter.
- I bought the TRON vehicles and Recognizer carrying case. I modded the carrying case a bit to include rows of blue and blacklight LEDs. I am in the process of repainting the vehicles with blacklight-reactive paint.
- I'm still finishing the carrying cases for the light trails, one of which is in the video. These were made of wood, also on the laser cutter.
- Everything is sitting atop a giant lazy susan that I made for gaming.
