I have some prints of my generative artwork Flourish available on my shop. It’s planned to release this summer via ArtBlocks

Prints are available framed or unframed , 16x16”

ML models for text-to-image generation are the cultural memory of society distilled down into a singular digital object.

They're a way of seeing the world that has become a material.

My series Spectacle is a manifestation of that world view.

This was a big inspiration for my Cyber Paint VR app I made

Aurora borealis chances throughout North America right now, even as far south as Chicago maybe. Head outside at night and look north 👀

Hey thanks! They’re giclee prints on a heavier, watercolor paper that’s got some texture

Sup

I've got four framed prints of Flourish that should be done this week 👀👀 really excited to see those

Here's a Pale Nimbus and Chicago palette generation , all JavaScript code and p5.js

Just let yourself out, do whatever you want, don’t worry about what other people think. One day all of our embarrassment and mistakes and cringe behavior and regret and worries will be dust in the wind as our bodies decay and we’re absolutely forgotten by time. Mostly reminding myself here, but yolo

Weekend adventure type of stuff

Hey @pfrazee.com what’s with the “no terms of service or privacy policy” warning? Seems kind of weirdly ominous

I laughed , I cried, skweeted

Hey, thank you! It’s printed all at once on a watercolor paper that’s got some texture. So the shading is an illusion of depth. It’s inspired by architectural ornament drawings from the late 1800s and early 1900s

Was there a final thing that made you do it? I’ve been thinking about it since musk replied to me and I got the firehose of lunatics

They’re clearly Skeets , sky tweets

Nice

These are two generations of Flourish, a generative artwork I built using JavaScript and P5.js over the winter. I’m having two 16x16” prints framed soon. It’s been a trip to design something to look like a work on paper for months, and then print it and see it in person.

Maybe mastodon or blue sky will never topple the giant, but maybe they don’t need to. A lot of social networks are conductive to specific aspects of our ego, professional, or creative, or family oriented, or shit-posty. Maybe blue sky will be for something else because the whole world isn’t watching
