Comedy captivates us in so many ways, especially through the masterful storytelling of stand-up comedians. They craft entire worlds with just their words, engaging us in a shared experience of laughter. Lately, I’ve been fascinated by how comedians remix their work across different mediums, creating bite-sized to binge-worthy moments that resonate across audiences.

As we’ve been experimenting with storytelling tools and virtual studio technology I started thinking — what if we could use generative AI to add another dimension to these audio masterpieces? Imagine visualizing the thought bubbles that pop up in a comedian’s head, or even ours, as we listen. 🤔💭

So, here’s a remix of a 5-minute clip from Nate Bargatze, one of my favorites. The result? A remix that I believe layers a new, visual dimension onto the stand-up experience, making it even more immersive.

Since creating this remix, technologies from Pika , Runway and Midjourney have advanced significantly, opening up even more exciting possibilities for content and experiences that we’re just starting to explore.

I’m thrilled about the future of storytelling, blending traditional forms with new tech to create something truly unique. It really is all about remixing and reimagining what’s possible.

I think we’re on the cusp of a bunch of new forms of content and experience.

It is all a remix!
