Here are some of my somewhat successful images from Midjourney. Just straight text, no seed imagery.

https://playgroundai.com/ is another free AI generator.
Similar to the others, seems quite good as it can generate 4 images at a time.

So i ..er.. don't socialise in people's houses out of seasonal period a helluva lot. Those that I do don't tend to Art much, but the houses I have since I came to Italy do, and I see a lot of middle class over-priced shit I can see people have spent at least a bit of money on.. and fuck, if I'm honest, it's mostly awful. Mostly shit that could've been Gen'd and iterated and upscaled and hi-res'd better than wot I saw way better with the sorta shit I've been playing with.
I think there's a HUGE disconnect between the conceits we have in the domain here and the vastly larger domain Out There we don't really appreciate or understand.
Ok, sure, that might not seem like something you might want to be involved in, but as-equally, I think there's at least a three year disconnect between what Smart-ish people here could achieve and what China-Instagram MassGurgitation might become normalised in a very few years.
Suffice to say, if you have an angle, I think there's a worthwhile angle here, irrespective of whatever mores and pretensions one might have in regard to whatever pseudo-AI output can aid with.
.
Honestly, I've been in three fairly well-monied houses this season who Pay For Shit To Be On Their Walls and honestly, I can't see how if I bothered, I could fail to find a means to make money here.
Perhaps I've got to an age where I'm cynical and just don't care, or perhaps I can see how I could much imprrove on what these people put on their well-earned walls.
- *hic, but still, I stand by this poorly-described sentiment.Nairn
- As with everything, The Packaging is the most important thing. A conceit in itself, irrespective of origin.Nairn
- erp. Not 'way better', 'way worser' than wot I've been playing with even.Nairn
- Most people are shit at art. I know I am. I'd just need to be 12% better than their conceits.Nairn
- *couldn't fail, ffs.Nairn
- I hear you Nairn, sometimes visit folks houses and think, why the fuck have you got that shit on your wall?PhanLo
- I can imagine the AI thing eventually being like the content aware tool in photoshop. You'll be able to draw leaves with it, etc.PhanLo

Wanted to hide the number 23 in one of those AI drawings. I was able to create a fairly overly complex looking recording studio room, like something I would draw in real life.
I remember going to someones studio years ago and photo-collaging all the pics together and then drawing it for an album cover, took about 4 days.

Started with a black and white version
Then colour

There were loads of out-takes but for reference, it's incredible.
This was in Stable Diffusion- very cool! what AI generator did you use and what prompts?Krassy
- So cool man, and I love that you’re creating this in your style_niko

I just needed something to use as a base and my tablet is at work so couldn't draw with the mouse very well.PhanLo - I use https://www.mage.spa… as tseems easiest to upload an image and the style transfer works pretty good.PhanLo
- Initial prompt is 'incredible screenshot of an underground bunker full of old computers vintage synthesisers and machines cables and pipes, dynamic camera...PhanLo
- ...angle, deep 3 point perspective, fish eye, dynamic scene, 8k, hd, high resolution print n-4'PhanLo
- It creates an image like this https://i.imgur.com/…
but I add things like 'pencil lines, aquarelle, scribbles, watercolor...' afterward for the lookPhanLo - The mage space site only does one image at a time so I usually test the text in https://stablediffus… firstPhanLo
- As you get 4 results really quickly using the most basic version.PhanLo
- There's defo fun potential for type stuff but it does take a lot of tweaking to get the look right.PhanLo
- Looking at things like this site https://www.krea.ai/… helps with prompts for testing styles.PhanLo
- THIS is what it's about! Great Stuff. I see now what you meant t'other day comparing this tech to Content Aware FillNairn
- @PhanLo Tnx for the info!Krassy
- Also, this was the image I used as the base https://i.imgur.com/… I found having some noise in the background helped create shapes.PhanLo
- Also the letters being slightly transparent helped add some little bits in the space.PhanLo
- If you want to check through all the results I uploaded them here https://imgur.com/a/…PhanLo
- I kept a window open and just re-rendered it every so often. Downloading as I workedPhanLo

Doodling, but not the result I wanted.

Never post here when you're hungry.

Attempting a liquid light show effect with a prompt similar to the one PhanLo posted below. 18h render with SD 1.5 on my M1 :-|
- This is exciting man, for visuals I’m looking forward to what can be achievedPhanLo
- Totally, didn't put much planning in to this one - about 10 lines of python using invoke.ai environment/ API was looking good at 100 frames so left it overnightkingsteven
- but could optimise the prompts and up the res (this is 810p AI upscaled to 1080) while halving the render time...kingsteven
- going to try a combination of this technique and the one i posted below next (using modulated feedback loops and im2im)kingsteven

This is how AI sees human art progression throughout centuries.

The QBN machine. I comped that together from multiple 1024 pixel squares. trying to make some mechanical letters. it's still a strange process, I actually put more detail in the background of this one, but it interfered with the letters a bit more than other ones.
This is fairly close to how I'd paint it on a wall and usually if I was to draw this as a line drawing it would take me about 8 hours.
As a reference for painting it has a lot of info and really nice tonal values.
I've been sending these to other painters to try to get them to try it, but middle aged graffiti guys are not really the target audience. I'd like to think it would improve the concepts of what people would paint, but in my experience, just trying to get a 50 year old men to undercoat their wall properly is nearly impossible without a lot of moaning.
-
- you could impress a toy with this, a middle aged graffiti guy knows that it's a juvenile concept and kinda hard to justify the method with it :)sted
- I dunno graff lettering is inherently more cohesive...the dimensions and layerung logic is sorted well before in sketches before getting to the wall stage.jonny_quest_lives
- I guess if I squint It works. In 3 months ai will have it all sorted.jonny_quest_lives
- https://bsciwp.s3.am…jonny_quest_lives
- A toy wouldn't even think of doing something like this. Believe me, the city where I live is filled with horror. Not all graffiti lettering is the same.PhanLo
- Say for instance this, https://i.imgur.com/… it's simplified, but I can draw good letters so I would use that as a base to make a nice piece.PhanLo
- Something like this https://i.imgur.com/…PhanLo
- @Johnny Quest that Fuse piece created some semi modern MSK style shapes https://i.imgur.com/… Must be an early piece, his style is a lot crisper now.PhanLo
- You can see potential here though?PhanLo
- i do see the potential just not sure how AI bridges the gap with image training alone as graf artists solvejonny_quest_lives
- the logic of layering elements at the sketch phase and am not sure AI can learn that on image scraping alonejonny_quest_lives
- as for the fuse piece i largely reference the older AWR crew stuff work as they were the heavy hitters in LA when i was growing upjonny_quest_lives
- graf in it's purest form definitely seems AI proof. kind like this shizjonny_quest_lives

- letterforms designed to be unteachablejonny_quest_lives
- Occasionally the Ai can do graffiti letters, but you’re right, I don’t think it can do a traditional wildstyle piece, but that’s not what I’m trying to do.PhanLo
- I went to the local hall of fame yesterday just to see what was there and most of it was like set graffiti from a film where the set painters only had Beat...PhanLo
- ...Street for reference. I’m unsure how graffiti has got so bad, considering the whole history is available for consumption online.PhanLo
- Always thought the AWR/MSK style were so giant, like stretched limo pieces. I’m a bit more Fiat Punto in scale. I like physicality of their letteringPhanLo
- Full body movement in the shapes. Each letter the size of a human stretching as far as they can in every directionPhanLo
- i do like the fills on letterforms in euro graf it seems there's more time for bubbles stars and stencils than in LAjonny_quest_lives
- https://www.braskart…jonny_quest_lives
- LA graff is pretty gothic, it took a long time for their letters to get good compared with the NY stuff. Also a lot of bad 3d stuff in the 90'sPhanLo
