Interesting Facts
Supertramp’s music often explores themes of alienation, social commentary, and personal relationships.
The band’s name “Supertramp” comes from a book by W.H. Davies, “The Autobiography of a Super-Tramp”, which explores the life of a homeless person in the early 20th century.
Roger Hodgson’s distinctive vocals and songwriting style were a key part of Supertramp’s sound, and his departure from the band in 1983 marked a significant change in their musical direction [1][2].

This covers the making of my last video for the Holden Street UTE. I cover making the image I use to create an AI generated video for the model. I also cover creating the correct files for RS to make the model usable in Rad Sandbox. I cover assembling the video first in Movie Maker to get the basics done, then in KDENLIVE to add all the extra tracks, sound and video both, then finishing it up in Movie Maker for the Title and the Credits. I will show the generation of the opening video in Deep AI an app I use for AI video and have a monthly subscription for. I will show creating the images I need to make the video from in another AI app. I tried to annotate all of it in a readable form to help you understand. I have just begun using KDEN live, and so I assume that will do the titles and credits but I am used to Movie Maker and so I can do them very fast there. However, the more I use KDEN Live the more I learn and the more I like it, so I bet it won’t be long before I am using …
Falcon Street Ute
This is a Holden (Australian) GM Based Sport UTE heavily modified as I built it. I started out to build a plain jane Sport Ute but that went south, and I found myself building this lowered street machine instead. I enjoyed this and I built it over the last week, on and off, and then finished it off last night and early this AM. I did a double tire map as well, so different Tred front and rear, probably something I will do from now on. I Simply split the rims off to two different tires and tred patterns. The lights and rest went on the same map. I also decided to record the entire process some of that is in this video, a little, explaining what I am doing, but the other video will be out in a few days and takes you through the entire process, animating the model, adding to RS and all the steps it takes to get there. This model is designed in Direct X and also comes in 3DS, OBJ and FBX too, along with the graphics and map work to make it look like it does. #Holden #UTE #australian
Christine 3D Model
The Plymouth Fury. This is a replica of the famous car Christine. A car that didn’t actually exist in the configuration Stephen King bought it to life in. Pretty cool that they had to build a custom version of this car for the movie, several in fact. This is not an exact replica, so if you are looking for an absolute measurement model this is not it. This is a model that captures the spirit of thew car without violating the copyright that Chrysler owns on the original car, and of course the car itself did not exist so it should be a moot point anyway. I built this car a few years ago when I began to build the wastelands version of a 1958 Plymouth for my Wastelands collection. Both the burned version and the clean version are included in this double set. FBX, 3DS, Direct X and OBJ versions as well as all of the graphics and maps to reproduce it as shown.

Lifted 4×4 Dodge Van – Dell Sweet #3DModels #3DCarModels #dellsweet This is a lifted Dodge 4X4 van. I actually had this project set-up to be built in real life when I was in an accident that stopped me from ever doing real life work like that again. So I sold the two vehicles and let that part of my life go. But the other day I was working on a model and remembered it and so I build it in 3D instead. It is built in Direct X. It includes all of the maps and graphics as shown. It also comes in 3DS, FBX, OBJ as well as Direct X. This model is designed and rendered in Direct X. #3DCarModel #directx #dellsweet

Put my pen to the page… I don’t often get the time… Builds such guilt inside… But I know you remain mine… And I know it hurts you too… Everyday… But there’s nothing we can do.
I’m so lonely here… Been so long since I’ve seen your face…Time keeps marching on… Seems no end to this place… But if I close my eyes… I can see you clearly… And dream you’re near me.
Instrumental……………………………….Short lead Lead……………………
Verse 3
Morning comes… I could swear I feel you next to me… But as I shake off the sleep… It’s clear to see… I am all alone… Same as so many days in a row… No… This is not home…

Rub the sleep from my… tired eyes… My face is set but my heart cries…
My thoughts try to hold me but I push them away…
Watch the sunrise in this place… Struggle with the words I want to say…

Verse 4
I don’t miss you anymore… It’s just a never ending need… I can hold back my tears… But my heart will bleed…Gets the best of me… I confess… Sometimes there is no best.

I hear life calling, but it’s so far away… Feels I am walking on the edge of a blade… And the day’s moving on… Morning’s nearly gone…

I’ll say goodbye… You know my heart is always with you… You know I love you… Those are the only words I know are true…You are always with me… I’m coming home… I just don’t know when that might be…

I push the tears from my eyes… I set my face but my heart still cries…
My thoughts try to hold me but I… push them away…
Watch the sunrise… in this place… Start my day…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that enables computers and machines to simulate human learning, comprehension, problem-solving, decision-making, creativity, and autonomy. It’s a multidisciplinary field that studies how to optimize AI’s beneficial impact while reducing risks and adverse outcomes ¹.
What is AI?
AI systems work by merging large datasets with intelligent, iterative processing algorithms. This combination allows AI to learn from patterns and features in the analyzed data. AI can automate routine, repetitive, and often tedious tasks, including digital tasks like data collection and physical tasks like warehouse stock-picking and manufacturing processes.
Types of AI
There are several types of AI, including:
Narrow AI (Weak AI): Designed to perform a specific task or a narrow set of tasks, such as voice assistants or recommendation systems.
General AI (Strong AI): Possesses human-level intelligence or even surpasses human intelligence across a wide range of tasks.
Superintelligent AI: A hypothetical form of AI that would surpass human intelligence in all areas.
Reactive Machines: AI systems that only react to specific tasks without storing past experiences.
Limited Memory: AI systems that can use past data to improve future decisions.
Applications of AI
AI has a wide range of applications across various industries and domains, including:
Healthcare: Disease diagnosis, medical imaging analysis, drug discovery, personalized medicine, and patient monitoring.
Finance: Fraud detection, algorithmic trading, and personalized financial advice.
Retail: Personalized recommendations, customer service, and inventory management.
Transportation: Autonomous vehicles, traffic management, and predictive maintenance.
Education: Personalized learning experiences, automated grading, and virtual tutoring.
Manufacturing: Predictive maintenance, quality control, and supply chain management.
Future of AI
The future of AI holds much promise, with potential advancements in areas like:
Agentic AI: AI systems that can act independently and purposefully, making decisions and taking actions without human intervention.
Generative AI: AI systems that can create new content, such as text, images, music, or video.
Robotics: AI-powered robots that can perform tasks autonomously, revolutionizing industries like manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare.
Challenges and Risks
While AI offers many benefits, it also poses challenges and risks, including:
Data risks: AI systems rely on large datasets, which can be vulnerable to data poisoning, tampering, and breaches.
Bias and fairness: AI systems can perpetuate biases and discrimination if not designed and trained carefully.
Job displacement: AI may automate certain jobs, potentially displacing workers.
Investment and Adoption
Governments and companies are investing heavily in AI research and development, with the European Union committing $1.1 billion to boost AI adoption in key industries like healthcare, energy, and manufacturing ⁶. The global AI market is expected to grow significantly, with AI projected to add up to $4.4 trillion to the global economy annually.
