24 alternatives to Building a 42-inch E-Ink frame for generative art
Recently, we wanted to find a way to display Generative AI art in our office at Photoroom.
This is a build guide for creating a large 42-inch e-ink display frame designed to show generative art. It documents the construction process and technical implementation for artists and makers interested in displaying… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. Building a 42-inch E-Ink frame for generative art launched in 2023; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

I built the world's most impractical 1000-pixel display and anyone in the world can draw on it. It draws a single pixel at a time and takes 30-60 minutes to complete a single image. Anyone can participate in the project by voting for the next image to be drawn, and submitting images. https://kilopx.com/

I'm enthralled with using pen plotters to make generative art. Last August at SIGGRAPH, I built an interactive experience for others to see how code can be used to make visual art. The linked blog post is my trials and tribulations of linking a MIDI controller to one of these algorithms and sending its output to a plotter, so that people may witness the end-to-end experience.

Hey HN, I want to share a personal project: I made a tiny pen-plotted book for my wife. I did everything myself—drawings (with some help from Midjourney), plotting, cutting, and binding. I even used a 3D printer to make a helper tool. It's absolutely over-engineered, but I enjoyed it a lot. Multi-disciplinary projects, especially those with a physical output, are a lot of fun for me. The post covers the process in detail, but if you're interested in anything specific, let me know. Cheers!

Hey HN, last week I've been building TattoosAI as a little learning project to get comfortable with Stable Diffusion & DALL-E. I'm absolutely shocked by how powerful SD is... Just like how GPT-3 helped copywriters/marketing be more effective, SD/DALL-E is going to be a game changer for artist!
