Fascianting read, just like your work. I am an INFJ, nailed it for me

That was a good read, Mike. I enjoy the writing style and the bluntness: "A lot of advice is unsolicited and usually quite stupid". Personally, I find bluntness refreshing, since so many people have a tendency to try to sugar-coat things. Just say it like it is.

I did a Meyers Briggs test years ago, and I'm maybe 90% sure it came out as INTJ. But I just did another one and it came out as ISTJ-T. It was just a free online one though, so the results should be taken with a grain of salt. Still, it did seem relatively accurate to me.

Sometimes its hard to take the test because its easy to answer things based on a current problem vs what you would do overall.

I consider an ISTJ someone that loves lists, rules, and cleaning things up. They need to ask the what, who where why etc. Where as INTJ doesn't need the list of instructions, I don't care about the where's etc, i'll create my own mental image of the events. I don't really follow rules.

But each test weighs It differently and some are quite dumb. Like do you think you are more of a feeler or a thinker? And then I close the test, that's just silly.

That was a really great read Mike. I have always admired your work and I wish I had your imagination when it comes to writing descriptions!

This came as a surprise to me Mike, I thought of you more as the classical music type!

“Favorite music – I have an eccentric taste. I like parody songs, swing, electro swing, different kinds of industrial heavy metal, mostly stuff from Germany, Finland and a few others, I’m getting into German techno as well. Basically anything with a good beat. I like foreign songs as they have often have a good beat, and because I don’t know the language, they don’t get stuck in my head. I suppose its possible that they are saying a bunch of bad words, but it is what it is, I’m after the beat.” -Mike Savad

Great interview, Mike!

"I create one of a kind digital art, and I do it the old fashioned way, with a mouse and a computer, not AI." How refreshing!

That made me laugh... a lot. At old fashioned

By next year, art will be made by thought. No input of any kind required. Technically I use a wacom. But that too is an archaic device these days.

@wim, classic music to me is like when they show that wine glass vibrating when a lady sings next to it. It wobbles and shakes then the glass shatters, that's what my brain does. My stuff is usually strong with a heart beat like beat. Problem is, listing a direct video, they often have bizarre leather fitting outfits and imagery that doesn't match my art. And I never did look up the lyrics to most of them.

What I do know is, that I can listen to it all day and its not stuck in my head because I don't know the words. Its when its in english that's its stuck in my head.



I can't wait to see a museum showing kids what a pencil and brush is, since AI will be the only way to make art. Rehashing past works. And then I see AI taking over forums arguing the best ways to install light bulbs... You laugh, but I can see that happening. Especially when different chat bots start talking to each other, trying to outwit each other.

As far as descriptions go, for the most part, i'm in the scene describing what I see as if I lived there. That makes it a little easier. As long as you don't read every single one of them, as I have like 18 grandmothers living in different houses.
