  • The End of the Cast Show
    And that's a wrap.. Gareth and Bill wind up the GBCast with a conversation about generative reality recorded at the Digital Planet meetup that took place in March, with special guest Ghislaine Boddington. Thanks for all the downloads, and we both look forward to sharing time together elsewhere on the interwebs.

  • Getting the Gang Back Together
    To celebrate/commemorate a year since the last World Service broadcast of Digital Planet Gareth, Bill, Ghislaine, Angelica (online) and Ania are meeting up in a wine bar in central London on the evening of March 28 and we'd love to see old listeners and new friends there. Sign up on Eventbrite (search Digital Planet).  And Gareth wants to tell you all about it..

  • Series finale, faking data vs synthetic data, and your views on photography
    In this final episode of the series (we'll be back in the new year) Gareth and Bill muse on the ways generative AI can be used to fake experimental data, the uses of synthetic data, and we pick up the online conversation about 'computational imaging'.

  • Computational imaging, data recovery.. and some rapid scheduled disassembly
    In this episode we reflect on SpaceX's latest mission and OpenAI's apparent implosion, muse on the nature of photography in an age of computational imaging, and discuss how the Super Pressure Balloon Imaging Telescope managed to get its data safely back to earth using Raspberry Pi computers.

  • eLORAN and GNSS, and the potential tricksiness of GPT-4
    In this episode Gareth eulogises the radio-based LORAN navigation system, and Bill wonders if GPT-4 is pulling a fast one. Or not. With an accelerated sketch and quite a lot of self-referential wittering.
