One of nineteen (19) images based on VERSUM ITEM #6059: my profile photo. I wanted to explore my favorite online identifier and other versions of it using Stable Diffusion. As I iterated through many loops of my process, I observed some predictable and interesting patterns in how the noise produced by one algorithm would become input, valid input, to another algorithm unprepared for it. This set of nineteen (19) images is the end result of honing that process, which involves various downscaling and upscaling steps, as well as a loss of all but four (4) colors.

Please enjoy these entities, as I think of them: creatures captured half formed, dreamed out of machine noise and perceived now by a human observer.
