In case you haven’t heard, Meta/Instagram is planning to remove all third-party filters/camera effects in January 2025.
I started making Instagram filters in 2019. It was fun to see all the puppy tongues, zombie faces, and cutesy heart vibes, but I wanted a set of tools I could use to make captivating content quickly. So that’s what I did! I recreated some of my go-to techniques from After Effects as Instagram Camera Effects.
As disappointed as I am to hear that this feature is being removed, I’m cautiously optimistic that something else will take its place. Fingers crossed?

“Flippin’ Channels”
Thrifted and modded portable TV, remote control (Bluetooth), real-time image generator, 99 channels of who-knows-what.
INSTRUCTIONS: Select a number from 1-99 and hit ENTER.
Once upon a time, we didn’t really get to choose what we watched on TV. Our favorite shows were just… on? Or not? Sure, you could change the channel, but that’s a long way from the kind of control we have now.
Who decided what was on?

This is an appreciation post for everyone who contributed something (art, time, effort, patience, attendance, and so on) to the first THWART pop-up group art show. (The event took place last Friday, August 9th in Silver Lake.) @aesethtics produced the event, but it would not have actually happened without the support of all of you. Thank you!

“Frank” (fka “Horndog”)
A hot dog, a mustard bottle, a mobile device that I found on the street in NYC, a hobby motor, some 3d printed components, and custom website called “Instagrain” that generates a new image of bread on every scroll.
—
I started making this goofy thing on a whim and obsessed over it for several months after that. Started with developing the website from scratch, ended up learning how to make an entire back-end for web-based image generation app. The physical portion of the project took about six iterations, starting with a thrifted hobby science kit that I hacked, and resulting in the form you see before you.
I’m pleased with the result. So much so, in fact, that I put together an entire pop-up group art show just to show this to people IRL. More on that in a later post. Until then, enjoy watching this glizzy get dizzy.
(These recordings have been modified to loop seamlessly/indefinitely to simulate the experience of viewing the piece in person.)

UPDATE: this was a long-image post, but Instagram took it away. Thanks for playing, everyone. (Leaving it up for now, for posterity.)
Der Instagram Story Viewer ist ein einfaches Tool, mit dem Sie Instagram Stories, Videos, Fotos oder IGTV heimlich ansehen und speichern können. Mit diesem Service können Sie Inhalte herunterladen und offline genießen, wann immer Sie möchten. Wenn Sie etwas Interessantes auf Instagram finden, das Sie später überprüfen möchten, oder Stories anonym ansehen möchten, ist unser Viewer ideal für Sie. Anonstories bietet eine ausgezeichnete Lösung, um Ihre Identität zu schützen. Instagram hat die Stories-Funktion erstmals im August 2023 eingeführt, die schnell auch von anderen Plattformen übernommen wurde, dank ihres fesselnden, zeitlich begrenzten Formats. Stories ermöglichen es Nutzern, schnelle Updates zu teilen, sei es Fotos, Videos oder Selfies, ergänzt durch Text, Emojis oder Filter, und sind nur 24 Stunden lang sichtbar. Dieser begrenzte Zeitrahmen sorgt für eine hohe Interaktion im Vergleich zu regulären Posts. Heutzutage sind Stories eine der beliebtesten Methoden, um sich in sozialen Medien zu verbinden und zu kommunizieren. Wenn Sie jedoch eine Story ansehen, kann der Ersteller Ihren Namen in seiner Viewer-Liste sehen, was ein Problem für die Privatsphäre sein kann. Was ist, wenn Sie Stories durchsuchen möchten, ohne bemerkt zu werden? Hier wird Anonstories nützlich. Es ermöglicht Ihnen, öffentliche Instagram-Inhalte anzusehen, ohne Ihre Identität preiszugeben. Geben Sie einfach den Benutzernamen des Profils ein, das Sie interessiert, und das Tool zeigt dessen neueste Stories an. Funktionen des Anonstories Viewers: - Anonymes Browsen: Sehen Sie Stories, ohne in der Viewer-Liste zu erscheinen. - Kein Konto erforderlich: Sehen Sie öffentliche Inhalte, ohne ein Instagram-Konto zu erstellen. - Inhalte herunterladen: Speichern Sie beliebige Story-Inhalte direkt auf Ihrem Gerät für die Offline-Nutzung. - Highlights anzeigen: Greifen Sie auf Instagram-Highlights zu, auch über das 24-Stunden-Fenster hinaus. - Repost-Überwachung: Verfolgen Sie Reposts oder Interaktionen bei Stories für persönliche Profile. Einschränkungen: - Dieses Tool funktioniert nur mit öffentlichen Accounts; private Accounts bleiben unzugänglich. Vorteile: - Datenschutzfreundlich: Sehen Sie sich beliebige Instagram-Inhalte an, ohne bemerkt zu werden. - Einfach und unkompliziert: Keine App-Installation oder Registrierung erforderlich. - Exklusive Tools: Laden Sie Inhalte herunter und verwalten Sie sie auf eine Weise, die Instagram nicht bietet.
Behalten Sie Instagram-Updates diskret im Blick, schützen Sie Ihre Privatsphäre und bleiben Sie anonym.
Sehen Sie Profile und Fotos anonym an, ganz einfach mit dem Private Profile Viewer.
Dieses kostenlose Tool ermöglicht es Ihnen, Instagram Stories anonym anzusehen und dabei Ihre Aktivität vor dem Story-Ersteller zu verbergen.
Anonstories ermöglicht es Nutzern, Instagram-Stories anzusehen, ohne den Ersteller zu benachrichtigen.
Funktioniert nahtlos auf iOS, Android, Windows, macOS und modernen Browsern wie Chrome und Safari.
Priorisiert sicheres, anonymes Browsen, ohne Login-Daten zu benötigen.
Nutzer können öffentliche Stories ansehen, indem sie einfach einen Benutzernamen eingeben – kein Konto erforderlich.
Lädt Fotos (JPEG) und Videos (MP4) mühelos herunter.
Der Dienst ist kostenlos nutzbar.
Inhalte von privaten Accounts sind nur für Follower zugänglich.
Dateien sind nur für persönliche oder Bildungszwecke und müssen Urheberrechtsregeln entsprechen.
Geben Sie einen öffentlichen Benutzernamen ein, um Stories anzusehen oder herunterzuladen. Der Dienst generiert direkte Links, um Inhalte lokal zu speichern.
