Cache is insanely talented and we run in the same VFX circles, so it's super lame to see a massive production straight up steal her work.
A$AP's vid is credited to AI Artists, so the question is did they knowingly rip off the clip or just not know where their prompting was stealing from? Either way, bad form.
A$AP Rocky accused of using visuals from a 2019 video in his โShroom Cloudsโ music video ๐๐จ
- The original creator has shared a comparison highlighting the similarities between the two videos
- The accusations add to the backlash over Rockyโs use of AI, with multiple AI artists credited in the production
- Rocky and his team have yet to publicly respond to the allegations

Loyd was very supportive during my time as a student and then runner at Aardman.
He gave valuable advice during my animation internship that elevated the quality of my work, and he took the time to give feedback on my showreel.
A notably knowledgeable and friendly man.
Weโre deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Loyd Price. A gifted animator, mentor and friend, Loyd dedicated more than 30 years to Aardman, inspiring and championing generations of animators along the way.
We feel lucky and proud to have known him and our thoughts are with his whole family โค๏ธ

Someone on TikTok said this candle from The Range smells like Pirates of the Caribbean.
It does have the sweet, woody effect, but to me it smells like men's deodorant at the same time.
I recently had the honour of opening a new, themed library at St. Augustine's Primary School!
I spoke to the children about my work with smells and how it inspired my novel The Doom Town Dummies.
PAPER ANNOUNCEMENT! ๐ซก
I have new stock of The Doom Town Dummies, and this time, it has groundwood paper!
This paper has 'at least 15% fewer CO2-equivalent emissions compared to other paper types'. ๐

One of the most exciting aspects of IAAPA is meeting people who I know well or have worked with but haven't met in person, meeting old friends, and making new acquaintances!
Thank you Slewis Curious for the beautiful corpse flower, which is appropriately adorned with a removable corpse!
I am proud to own number 1/150 of this odious ornament.
I have republished an article from October 2019!
'Phantom Manor: The Portraits of Melanie Ravenswood' analyses how the portraits displayed at Phantom Manor have affected the ride's storytelling.

๐ฐ Love seeing Phantom Manor art used!
...but also weird that they're using the concept art again and not the final painting.
I think it's down to what scans they have on file!

A new article in The Observer mentions two of @aroma_prime's museum projects!
One is Jovik Viking Centre, and the other the Marie Antoinette Style exhibition, for which AromaPrime supported AVM Curiosities in creating a prison scent. โ๏ธ

๐ฐ What we were criticizing in the previous post has actually been respected here: we get to enjoy a slice of Melanie Ravenswoodโs wedding cake, and itโs simply brilliant from an immersive point of view โ but itโs also very good and not dry at all. The Happily Never After Cake is generous and made of sponge, strawberry and vanilla mousses, and a cream cheese and butter frosting. We highly recommend it, though more as an afternoon treat.
The Cold Soul Sundae, made with ice cream and a blackcurrant topping, is excellent too (finally something other than vanilla).
Thanks to everyone who visited AromaPrime's IAAPA booth!
What continues to stand out to us is how enthusiastic people are about our work, whether they are our customers or fans of themed attractions.
We are proud to continue an almost 60 year legacy of themed smell makers!
