what(thefuck)ever #178
created with Disco Diffusion 5.7 (when AI was still flawed and damaged and beautiful), enlarged with Topaz Gigapixel (24.9 MB), touched up in photoshop.
when i make a work of analog physical art, i never start with a subject in mind. rather, i surrender to unconscious flow, and am often surprise by the finished piece. which is one of the things i enjoy most about creating art.
Disco Diffusion is the only AI text-to-image generator i’ve found thus far that fits my own work flow so closely. it’s an older model (circa 2022-23) that’s slightly unpredictable and uncontrollable, making it particularly enjoyable to use. more modern models tend to create images a little too predictable and refined for my personal taste.
i hope you enjoy. … e9Art (aka eric) has been a typesetter, tire changer, the coffee dude, that pizza guy, a homeless couch-surfer, a gag-writer, children’s picture book author, award-winning and internationally published haiku poet, fine-art photographer, and since 2016 a full-time artist (self-taught).
his first NFT collection was created in May 2019, he minted his first work of AI text-to-image art in March 2022.
