Sharing with you a grid showing 42 images and 3 of them at full-size - all generated by me with Midjourney AI. The series is called "My favorite Century." #Midjourney #Aiart #digitalart #modernpainting #20thcentury #softwaretakescommand

3D, cinema, photography, ML, and computer vision are gradually converging, creating new hybrids that combine advantages of different forms of imaging, visualization and interaction. This is the new stage of evolution of imaging. It starts perhaps with movies like Tron (1982)..

With #NeRF you can make any virtual tracking shot, even those not possible in real space. When will we see this in cinema?

Today there are hundreds of different AI tools for artistic creation spread around Internet - but no easy mechanism to see and use them together. Phygital+ studio created "AI Library" - a directory that lists 300+ such tools #AIart #dalle2 #midjourney

First iPhone and Instagram created billions of photographers. And now, #MidjourneyAI and #dalle2 are creating billions of artists. It’s the ultimate democratization of something that until now required lots of training or money.. a real cultural revolution!

Honored to play a small role in this research on the evolution of design using a dataset of 23k sneakers released over 22 years! #digitalhumanitied #culturalanalytics #fashionhistory

Super happy to find out that our paper analyzing 23,492 sneaker images from StockX.com was one of the best paper candidates at #WWW2022.

Experimenting with #midjourney AI image synthesis tool - generated a typical 20th century modernist still-life image and then made 225 variations. The style seems to shift in systematic way, from flat to 3D! (Or maybe I got lucky) #SoftwateTakesCommand #digitalarthistory

Greater creative control for AI image generation - being able to specify image composition is so important !

DALL-E is opening to everybody -$15 for 460 images. What will happen then all these images start showing in web image search results? How this will affect our aesthetic, stylistic and iconographic diversity of our visual culture? #Culturalanalytics

I asked #MidjourneyAI to make 225 variations of a single image - on the left). The final image is on the right. And a “error” example is in the middle. Does remind me of biological evolution..occasional errors. It’s different of course here.. but as a metaphor ?

Giorgio Morandi is one of my most favorite artists. Here are few of 200+ images I made in #MidjourneyAI - to investigate how iteration may cause style to evolve. And as homage to Morandi!

Exiting to see this new work #culturalanalytics by - - using data methods to think and see art in new ways. This for me is what data approach is about - seeing differently! #Artificial_Intelligence #DigitalHumanities arxiv.org/abs/2205.10271
