These are art in themselves, in a some of them point out what lockdown was like for us, they’re expressed themselves in a really cool way. But I think these are going to be talked about in the future.

i already mentioned in the past that a friend of mine trained an AI on my drawings so that it could replicate my artstyle, a fun thing is that it fed it a bunch of drawings i made of myself so most of the things it creates look like self portraits i could have done
other just look like random cool guys i could have come up with
(i fucking love the guy with short hair and lipstick, he looks fucking sick, i am 100% using that design)
first of all, i cannot begin to descrive how mindfucky and trippy is to see drawing that *could have been done by me* but werent. every time i see them i have to catch my self for a few seconds wondering “wait, did i do these and forgot????”
second, because i didnt do these they are not worn on my eyes like a drawing i would have made, these are fresh images to my brain. i dont have a memory of having done every line and curve and having observed it a million times as i was doing them, thus the illusion of life is a lot more stronger for me.
so with all this is mind, this little excercise is allowing me to do something i always craved for but that i could never get. to see my own art from an outsider’s perspective. to be able to appreciate my work from the point of view of someone else. how does my drawings look to others. i can do that now with these.
and let me tell you, not to sound too conceited but, damn, i really like what i see. i can now see what everyone else sees in my artstyle, its fun! its dinamic! its really expressive in a way i never noticed! and yes, the noses! oh my god the noses! and the way the lips curl and tighten.
on top of that, as i said, a lot of the overfitting in the model is directed towards self portraits that i made of myself, so the AI will tend to use many of the faces and features i use to depict myself. now you have to understand i identify quite strongly with my own drawings. i said often that i see more of my self in my drawings than i do in a mirror.
with this in mind its also super trippy that my friend basically has a fip generator.
every time i see things like this i cant help but go “OMG, THATS ME! THAT IS ME!”
(this final piece was actually done by me, lol)
so yeah, this has been all very illuminating

[The artist, putting a simple cake next to a much fancier one: “Aw man, that guy’s cake is way better than mine.” The Audience, gleefully holding up a knife and fork “HOLY SHIT! TWO CAKES!”]
I know it’s not July yet, but guys, happy 10 years of “two cakes”. This post on god has been a godsend not only as a writer myself but as a friend of artists and writers who I love to encourage. This was legitimately a game-changer.

You know that thing where you see a gorgeous view (left) and try to take a picture of it, but your phone camera is a joyless fucking nihilist who refuses to see the beauty in anything and only sees this (right)
ok im gonna explain it anyway bc of this sO HERE IS MY QUICK BREAKDOWN
[please note my breakdown IS android specific bc that’s what i have, however i know that the settings should be SIMILAR for an iphone. i just couldn’t tell you the exacts]
GO TO THE “MORE” SETTING (should be visible as soon as you open your camera)
GO TO “PRO”
PLAY WITH THE ISO, THE SPEED (shutter speed) AND THE WB (temperature)
a HIGH ISO will help brighten your photo, a LOW ISO will help dim it.
a FAST shutter speed will DARKEN your photo, a SLOW shutter speed will make it LIGHT. this will also have an effect on how your photo takes!!! the slower your shutter speed, the steadier you need to hold your phone or it WILL become blurry, but it allows more ambient light and is thus recommended for taking photos of, say, stars. a fast shutter speed is how you take photos of objects in motion, but it lets almost no ambient light in (this is where you would want to up your ISO!)
the WB/temperature will shift your photo from being more warm toned to more cool toned.
here are some examples i took of the same sky. each photo has a different ISO, Speed, and WB:
and here is a much more subtle example where I was messing only with the ISO and shutter speed:
finally, here is one compared to a photo I took at the same moment with just my phones normal camera:
(you can REALLY see the sun rays peering out over the clouds in the photo on the right, which is what i was trying to photograph!)
As you can see, the difference are HUGE even when they’re subtle!!!
your regular phone camera SUCKS but it DOES come equipped with the right settings to take gorgeous photos. you just have up know what to look for!!!!!
[sidebar: NONE OF THESE PHOTOS ARE EDITED BTW!!! this is exactly how the phone took them!!!]
