The Sacred Appliance
Jona Bechtolt’s new installation is four microwaves spinning on a platter, each displaying video of something inside a microwave. It’s about the screen we all stopped watching, and why that might be the most forward-thinking subject an artist can choose right now.

The Bot That Finished Second
Every month, KmikeyM shareholders play a poker tournament. $50 buy-in. Real money. Real stakes. The second Tuesday of every month since 2020. (Join us!) On February 10, 2026, for the first time, an AI sat down at the table. K5M Guy was a Claude-powered AI agent and I fronted it the $50. I was in…

Trapped in UnSAFE Conditions

RFC: Improve Tournaments Airtable
Here is a quick overview of the Shareholder Poker Tournament Airtable and my problem of having to enter the participants twice in order to get it to work. I think there is a better way, and it’s probably related to how I structured the data, but this is still new to me. Do you know…
