Quote: I find it to be really cool that order is drawn out from mathematical chaos. Sometimes, it still results in chaos though...
As a Surrealist it is chaos I look for, or "method in madness". Or as Isidore Ducasse (better known as the Comte de Lautréamont) said: 'As beautiful as the chance meeting, on a dissecting table, of a sewing machine and an umbrella'.
For my own purposes, I find Deep Dream probably the best AI. I used it since it first started (back then, it only had one choice, Deep Dream), but since then you had to create an account and log in. It expanded into 3 different styles, plus you could upload your own images for styles, which I mostly use.
Since you are using Deep Dream you have an account, so you can check out mine here: https://deepdreamgenerator.com/u/artofthemystic/
I also used Deep Dream images in videos, one of them is Artists Eye, which I posted January 2019.
Another still picture I ran through several passes, but then cloned the portrait face back from the original in photoshop, and called it Muse in Deep Dream (best viewed full screen) - included on this page on my website: Deep Dream.
This is actually a clue that I had not posted my "Muse" on the blockchain (I wanted to link to it, but apparently I never did post it here - so: coming up shortly!). Since this was a 'reminder', I am running one of my old paintings through Deep Dream as we speak.
Hawaiian Selfie (1995) - Deep Dream
That shirt looks rad! Your Hawaiian Selfie looks a bit like Predator.
That's awesome you were reminded to create more and inspired by from this post. I have seen a bit of your Deep Dream generated artworks and it definitely adds a methodical layer of chaos on top of your art, which was already chaotic. I will have to check all the links and explore all the stuff you shared here in a bit.
I appreciate you dropping by and taking the time to comment so thoughtfully, as usual! Looking forward to seeing what you will share soon. I used the Fathomless setting and just adjusted the numbers of neuro links while deciding to rotate and/or zoom from time to time. That Rare Deep Dream image i got was pretty trippy... but your stuff is always trippy... A.I. augmented or not!
Cheers
