Sean Strickland

MW (Middleweight) Division + UFC 297

My honest reviews on the fight as of today was :

Dricus Du plessis during the first R1-R2, was mostly him and Strickland kind of just the jabs n shi, not much happened during it which reminded me of Sean’s fight with Adesanya which wasn’t all that good except R1 where Strickland lands a knock down to Adesanya. In Round 1 Du plessis did seem hurt, his eye got a swelling, his left eye I guessed.

Round 1 to 2 Strickland wins, R3 the tables turned and Du plessis kept advancing with the takedowns and getting up on the significant strikes. As much as I didn’t like du plessis and liked Sean more, it just really felt like Sean was sort of holding back or he felt off during the fight. There was a lot of hype during the conference. And overall the fight but this was my opinion and if anyone else thinks otherwise it’s all fine.

Round 3 was when Strickland did get cut in the brow and maybe at the end of round 2 was when Dricus landed some shot towards stricklands eye. R4 and R5 were no other. Arguably Dricus won R3-4-5 and landed more strikes and the take downs, plus he injured Sean. Both did good. But Sean got cut in the head and the slight (swelling)? Near his eye and etc..

A lot say Sean got robbed. I would say yeah, at the almost end of R5 he did start landing a few hits but mostly missed and it was kind of too late and Dricus won and now he’s the champ, so R1-R2 Sean wins. But then Dricus really pulled a 180

Now with Dricus being the champ as of current. A lot were speculating that Alex Pereira or Khamzat were coming back to fight Dricus. I doubt Pereira would come fight Dricus. But if he did, good luck. That would be the shortest championship reign in MW history despite the fact you JUST won it. Khamzat winning the belt from Dricus. If that happens I’m not so sure anyone is gonna take the belt from khamzat. He’s gonna wipe the floor with half the middleweight division is what I think and it’s just gonna take so long to dethrone Khamzat. A fan of the Borz here 🫡

But what do you think? I am upset that Strickland lost. Same way I felt when Tony lost to Paddy :(

Reflections on Flux Festival 2024

Photo credit: Sarah M. Golonka

Of course I'm biased, but not in a bad way. Having witnessed the hundreds of hours of curating and organizing that Holly and her collaborators – the old team from RES Magazine and RESFest – put into this amazing four-day festival, I knew it would be unlike any of the other public events I have been to that are struggling to come to terms with the impact and potentials of generative AI. It also makes sense that FluxFest extends the logic of the RESFest in terms of capturing a moment, however fleeting and transient it may be – this I regard as a feature, not a bug, by the way – in the unfolding evolution of digital culture. This is where the genius of Flux lies. Industry-sponsored AI events and those promoted by organizations that want to be recognized as a source of investment advice are all inextricably cathected with the self-serving logic of venture capital, which thrives on being right about what's cool, what's next, and who to watch and listen to.

Flux, as the name suggests, embraces the indeterminacy of any given moment, with its fickle basis in technologies, each of which promises to be the next big thing, and instead looks for cultural resonances and significance; a curated experience that is agnostic about form and largely indifferent to newness and coolness even when it is capturing things that are new and cool. As such, it is also appropriate that the event unfolded over a series of days at venues scattered around the city -- from UCLA's Hammer Museum to the School of Cinematic Arts at USC, to the Audrey Irmas Pavilion (AIP) somewhere in between.

Although I managed to make it to all four events, the highlight was definitely the day-long series of performances, screenings, talks and installations at the AIP, where close to a thousand people converged - the event's sponsorship by USC and Holly's research unit AIMS (AI for Media and Storytelling) skewed the demographic toward students, but well-mixed with Flux loyalists and a sizable number who either remembered or were old enough to remember the RES days of the early 2000s.

Although my plan had been to help with documenting the event in 360 video, I instead found myself assisting with the VR installations on the second floor, where multiple exhibits were set up for attendees to experience projects ranging from the VR version of Carlos López Estrada's “For Mexico, For All Time,” which accompanied the 2024 UFC championships at The Las Vegas Sphere, to Scott Fisher's Mobile and Environmental Media Lab's (MEML) collaboration with Pau Garcia of Domestic Data Streamers, which used a variety of image synthesis technologies to recreate memories conjured by visitors to the installation.

Dubbed "Synthetic Memories" and working in near-realtime, a team of USC students from Fisher's lab created 180-degree memory spaces and Gaussian splat-based 3D environments, all of which were experienced in a head-mounted display. My own childhood memory of being menaced by a possum from the treehouse in my grandparents' backyard yielded two equally striking image spaces. Unfortunately, the generative AI system never quite captured the threat posed by the possum as I experienced it. The creature that was supposed to be snarling up at me in the printed souvenir of the experience (below) looks more like a friendly, overfed otter, but this image will nonetheless probably one day entirely replace my biological memories of the situation.

Of course, the environments created with both the Gaussian splat and gen AI software uncritically naturalize arbitrary conventions for the aesthetics of memory: soft-focus, muted color palette, fuzzy borders, etc., all of which are rooted in a cinematic vocabulary that is more semiotic convention than anything organically related to remembering. But for now, these experiments are making lemonade out of the indistinct yet still compellingly dimensionalized aesthetics of the environments created by Fisher's team.

After having my own memory space conjured by this apparatus, I had not expected to spend the next 9 hours informally staffing López Estrada's adjacent VR installation, but I made the mistake of admitting that I knew how to set up and operate a Quest 3 headset. Although I haven't taught my VR class at UCLA for over a year and was a little out of practice troubleshooting the Quests, there was something uniquely rewarding about spending the day within a few yards of Scott Fisher, some 40 years after his team at NASA Ames developed the first functional headmounted display in the mid-1980s. The way I see it, if Scott Fisher – one of VR's true visionaries and pioneers – is willing spend 9 hours ushering dozens of visitors through a VR exhibit, who am I to sneak out to take in the rest of the Flux events?

Photo credit: Sarah M. Golonka That said, some of the more memorable elements of the festival, for me were Kevin Peter He's live cinema performance with Jake Oleson, which was preceded by a how-to workshop at USC's IMAX theater, exposing some of the secrets of his live, VJ-style navigation of procedurally generated, landscapes populated with infernal, humanoid specters.

Another perverse highlight was Jan Zuiderveld's self-serve Coffee Machine installed in the lobby outside the VR exhibits, which served up AI-generated insults to users along with a pretty decent cup of espresso. Although it was admittedly a relief for everyone that the festival came to such a successful conclusion, I won't be surprised if the legacy of the RESFest lives on in the form of a traveling, international version of the Flux Festival. Whatever its afterlife may be, the 2024 Flux Festival has set a bar that seems unlikely to soon be surpassed by the bright-eyed evangelists and doomsaying haters who dominate much of the current landscape of generative AI.

5/24/23

7 hours of sleep. Went to the gym again at 5:30am. This morning the scale said 180, that’s like 2 pounds of water weight lost in a day? Not too surprising considering how shitty I’ve been eating prior to all this. Actually I don’t even think I’ve been eating that bad. I’m trippin. Regardless, I’ve been eating perfectly these past couple of days. Just normal natural shit instead of processed, salty, sugary trash. Gonna take a rest day tomorrow then back at it Friday.

Filmed for the cooking channel today, nice and easy. Going to start uploading next week, 2 videos a week. These videos are in the original style that made us what we are right now, so I’m looking forward to it. I want that gold million subscriber plaque. Yeah that’s pretty superficial but fuck it. We’re currently at 363,856 subscribers, I would say we have a long way to go but it could happen at any time with how unpredictable YouTube can be.

Bought UFC 4 on PS5 since it was on sale for like $10, it’s fun. I really suck at it but it’s fun. I like how this is one of the only sports games that doesn’t get released every fucking year. I want to go to UFC290 in Vegas for July but god damn tickets are expensive. Not insanely expensive but still.. We’ll see.

Started going through music projects and sorting out which ones would be released in June. Getting excited about it, glad to be back in this mode. I have so many ideas for so many things, but one thing at a time. I have faith that everything will come to fruition.

Feeling good at the moment, very focused and disciplined. I’m reading the Unabomber manifesto during the day like I said yesterday, but in the afternoons I’m reading The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Rubin. As interesting as the manifesto is, I’d rather not read about how fucked up the world is right before I go to sleep. I think it’s a good balance to also read about someone’s perspective on the beauty of life in conjunction.

I’m fucking sick of TV. Something about it just holds absolutely no interest to me at the moment. Maybe it’s because I don’t have much time for it during the week. Who knows, maybe this will pass.

Tomorrow should be a good day, lots to do.

"Divorced by agreement 2 years ago" Choi Doo-ho, confession of private life

'Korean Superboy' Choi Doo-ho confessed about his divorce for the first time.

The SBS entertainment program 'Running Man', which aired on the afternoon of the 15th, was decorated with a special feature of 'Sparking Salary Fighter', and Kim Dong-hyun, Choo Sung-hoon, Jung Chan-sung, and Choi Doo-ho appeared as guests.

On this day, Jeon So-min looked at her face as her lipstick got on her teeth while having a conversation with the guests. Then, Yoo Jae-seok pointed out, "All four of you are married," drawing laughter.

Choi Doo-ho jumped up from his seat and surprised everyone by confessing, "I'm sorry, but I divorced under the agreement."

Then Yoo Jae-seok corrected, "I will update with the latest news. (Choi Doo-ho) is currently single."

Choi Doo-ho showed off his anti-war charm by repeatedly mentioning the fact of the divorce coolly, saying, "It's been two and a half years since I got divorced. I got married, but I got divorced."

Viewers reacted enthusiastically to Choi Doo-ho's appearance as an entertainer who was 180 degrees different from his beast-like appearance in the ring. Immediately after the broadcast, some viewers said, "Choi Doo-ho's shy and cool appearance is cute", "It would have been difficult for him to confess his personal life, but he is honest and nice to see", "I rather like him because he is completely different from Octagon."

Meanwhile, Choi Doo-ho has a mixed martial arts record of 14 wins and 4 losses and a UFC record of 3 wins and 3 losses. He is set to return to the UFC in February and is currently appearing on the SBS entertainment program 'Pure Fighter'.
