My future's so dire, I'm required to wear shades
This is my latest exhibition of paintings centered around the near future and dystopian themes. I've been on the fence on whether I should submit this but I've found a lot of my more technically-minded friends have enjoyed them and the HN crowd might as well. The exhibition overview: My future's so dire, I'm required to wear shades is a world of sagging, crooked, 16-bit color fields interrupted with parts and pieces of humanity breaching the surface. It's surveillance. It's faulty optics. It's that hidden slice of frontier between the present day and dystopia. Using oil paint each piece has…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
This is my latest exhibition of paintings centered around the near future and dystopian themes. I've been on the fence on whether I should submit this but I've found a lot of my more technically-minded friends have enjoyed them and the HN crowd might as well. The exhibition overview: My future's so dire, I'm required to wear shades is a world of sagging, crooked, 16-bit color fields interrupted with parts and pieces of humanity breaching the surface. It's surveillance. It's faulty optics. It's that hidden slice of frontier between the present day and dystopia. Using oil paint each piece has an underlayer filled with details. People, places, objects, and symbols make up the ground of the painting. Each new layer covers more and more of the last leaving a heavy canvas filled with marks and texture. I approached these works starting directly on the canvas without any kind of formal plan or idea on the outcome. My only two directives being "allow the work to be a mistake" and "there is no plan, only the feeling of dread". [link redacted]

Spent the past few days making this - something halfway between a demoscene program and an experimental film. I wanted to celebrate the unique computer-y aesthetics of flash, while showing off some weird and obscure tricks I've picked up over the years since it's been deprecated. (Also, some maybe-not-subtle commentary about AI-art and the tools of the future)

This was more of a sandbox to play with Raphael and Flot than anything else but I think there are some interesting statistics in there. It'd be awesome to do this over time but I really don't have the spare time required.

Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results.
