Generative Illustrations
Mike Kupietz’s experiments with generative art made with AI tools. Beautiful and strange visual images to trick the mind and and tickle the senses.
Artist’s statement: “I do a lot of experimentation with trendy AI generative art apps such as Dall-E and Stable Diffusion. These allow you do specify a picture of what you want, and will generate something they think it’s statistically likely you’re asking for.
“I’ve always been interested in using algorithms to augment and even collaborate with in my art, both visual and musical, since working in 1987 with the fondly remembered Joel Chadabe, an early pioneer in algorithmic composition, for whom I ran SUNY Albany’s electronic music studio for two years and worked with at his algorithmic composition software company, Intelligent Computer Music Systems.
“Even before the boom in AI in recent years, I was writing and using apps to algorithmically reinterpret and expand my ideas in both music and visual art. However, the recent boom in what’s technically known as ‘Generative Adversarial Networks’, AI image generators in short, has made it easier than ever to produce very convincing and complex images. I’ve had a blast playing with them in the last year or two.”
Another AI generative art project. I recently was experimenting with creating some work-themed images. I didn't come up with anything I could use on my FileMaker consulting website, but I…
As I worked on my "Revisions Of Johanna" project, I generated a lot of images I really liked, but which didn't fit into the final project. I decided the best…
While working on a featured image for Field Report: Briefing On My Weekend, I had the idea of extending the theme to make a whole set of illustrations inspired by…
This is a series of generative art images I am paticularly fond of. Originally these were going to be part of my RobGAN Hitchcock project, but they kind of stand…
For a while, I had a Twitter account, @robGANhitchock, where I was posting AI illustrations of Robyn Hitchcock lyrics I created using a Generative Adversarial Network ("GAN"). This was an…
Angel trumpets and devil trombones, and you are invited! Here's some phantasmagorical music-themed generative AI illustrations I, well, generated. These were, by the way, generated with Dall-E 2.5, which is…
