Torty Talks from Simon Anthony

Digital Humans - Cold Talks part 1

Reality hits hard after the incredible magic of a Prom season begins to fade, even after this year's shortened and for me further lessened event. I talk of aspect of teaching but get interrupted by reality on four, or possibly eight legs.

This is the story of my decision, and the subsequent experience of at least the first half of the Last Night of the Proms 2021

The second have shall have to wait ... possibly years. Copyright you know.

The good people of https://www.descript.com/ have rather scared me. Their AI system sounds, not a bit, but exactly like me - as you can hear as I experiment with it. Shockingly good, but fortunately not very emotionally varied . I somehow doubt that shall take long to fix though !

Also, diary thoughts on the continued incredible speed of technological advance - as seen from a bloke who can hardly get around still due to Long Covid.

Things have not calmed down even a bit yet, so I just had to talk about recent goings on - again.

Coping with illness, my illness changing every day. Resource wars, I told you so. Still don't know about Cancer - more Diary notes Rambling but eventually cogent.

Life is getting more than usually confusing, so I have made a note or several about it.

On this day I pretended to be a drama teacher, then failed at being a Prommer. I'm not well... Have I mentioned this?

I may be getting better though.

This is part diary, part documentary of the 30th July 2021 in London and the Royal Albert Hall, first night of the Proms 2021

This script, written by Dov Rigal and myself some thirty years ago was turned down by the BBC as being 'Too complex and obscure'. It wan't then and is even less so now. Ho hum !

It's read by me as a sort of book - just EP one so far.

An attempt at a description of the scientific process of flattening Flat Earthers by inflating them with facts.
