Counting the Points -original mix
then Counting the Points - matt lange remix
then No Silence
(with some others thrown in if need)
?
Ok I've laid out some initial todo-lists to get started
Storyboard all done and music mostly done
I reordered fractal + life/intelligence
I shortened/lengthened some sections
berdlabs html done
I should remake berdlab so that it shows a victory screen!
Gonna have a go at paintlab first
done PaintLab
Ok I redid BerdLab (HTML) so that it now shows a victory screen!!
I've started the PPT version of BerdLab
Started some work on SandLab
and added a release date
Made lots of progress on SandLab
gonna change everything to fish
Also I got delayed by covid so I'm pushing back the release date
SandLab coming along more. Gonna try to get a teaser trailer ready now
Teaser trailer was done and released. Intro completely done now. I've started on programming language - gonna make the first transition as a practice + to figure it out.
Audio of intro is dodgy - redo effects
Did more work on sandlab - ready for element making now
First draft of programming language done - still needs lots of review though
- Lowpass drop needs to last longer, and more signposting
- Sort out noise - raise clip volumes and move denoiser to clips
- Make code clips slightly scaled down with void border
- 'my computer' section looks low prod value - zoom into youtube video?
- too many continuity errors with bot-to-bot
- 'going up through HTML' clip is janky
- can't hear myself in correction section
-
idea: big bold fancy HTML and CSS and MICROSOFT POWERPOINT! Helps break stuff up, and has now prod value and impact.
-
In interruption, change the clips to a one-take. They should stack up over and on top of each other.
-
Clouds - remove fade to black, just go straight to black at the start
- Also add slight delay, with me looking at the screen (?), at start of interruption
Ok redid the first part, programming language completely done now
Voice for CA 1 done
Script for CA 2 done
Voice for CA 2 done
Started the video of CA 2 - I think I might switch back to code for CA again!
Did some more sandlab work, and found this:
- Into clouds transition mismatched - the right edge doesnt connect
- Remove mouth noises in intro
- Remove mouth noises in cloud bit
- Consider pushing the CA intro voiceover a tiny bit later, or re-record to get it shorter (and later)? or just keep it crazy?
It's okay, everyone makes mistakes.
MAKE IT CRAZY
Ok will do!
LabLab code done
Intro noises removed
Clouds fixed
Removed noises from cloud section
Spaced out CA intro a bit but kept it crazy
Gonna give credits a go now
Credits done (except patrons)
- Outro crops wrong
- Outro needs more lead-in
- precision error on cloud entry transition
- pulse cells + rules
- extend patron, delay outro
Outro finished, and credits broll changed, and final highpass transition tuned down a bit
All points fixed. I think I need to press on in chronological order now. Let's finish up sandlab!
SandLab code all done - next up, sandlab video
CA 1 done now
Now facing some options moving forward:
I now know the scope of each section so it would be quicker to do all of each part's job together.
We could batch together:
- Script
- Transitions
- Voice 1
- Voice 2
I think it would be good to do those next, because then I can just stay in editing mode until the very end
Let's do all of voice 1 first!? but wait, for that... I probably need fishlab code done first...
Is it fishlab time!?
Fish code nearly done
- Allow negative weights
- Consider merging some neurons related to vision/turning?
Ok screw that, FishLab is good enough!
Time to finish the script
Life/Intelligence script 1 done
We're around ⅔ the way there. Good job so far. 👍
Patron pond of fame done. I'll leave it for a day or two in case there are any changes. Back to script!
AI/Alife script 2 done
Fractal script done, with some improv bits left in
All script done! And I did fractal 2 properly :)
Next up let's do all the transitions

Voice time!
Life voice 1 done

All voice 1 done!
Music done!
Notes:
- relax Art timing
- fix cloud precision error again
- double up more speech in life / intelligence
- remove lowpass at start of life / intelligence
Voice 2 time!
Life / Intelligence voice 2 done
Fractal voice 2 done
Reorganised ending so no longer need Define 2 voice
mainly cos i was able to do the collage thing in fractal already, so we get to do something different in define, which is good
Ok I recorded an outro voice instead
Voice 2 all done!!!
Ticking off all the individual transition breakdown because I think I can just go through from start to finish now!
Oooo we're getting close!
yes! I'll finish it on Wednesday I think!
yay
life life or voice life 🤔
Notes:
- Push silence a bit longer at start of art to break the rhythm fully
- Slight audio pop in Life 2
but dang it's looking good
add oecake or phyzios studio to third part of tourism
multiplayer tetris?
More notes
- try fixing opensea again
- check voice levels, maybe deesser? essssssses very loud
Gonna do Art 1 first just in case I need to do more filming
Art 1 nearly done.
lets work from the start again now
Art 1 done
CA 2 done
Life 1 done
Life 2 done
Fractal 1 done
Fractal 2 done
Art 2 done
all video done! it's rendering.
There's probably some issues with it, so let's see how it goes
how long is this render?
There was an audio issue in the render so I'll fix it Thursday evening
It's out!
