More AI experiments

In recent months, I've been playing around with the various AI art generators, and I've used their output as a springboard towards some fresh images. Here are some of them for yr enjoyment!

Above:
"A Quiet Day in the Country, but with Aliens" turned out the inset photo. I've decided to go all mid-century sci-fi novella on it.

Above:
"Vote Crispus"started with the revolutionary fists, presumably from some Third World country. One of the AI generators had a version with the gentleman in the lower middle, frozen with an accused look that I thought added a more sinister tone. There's no particular candidate named Crispus, and a vote for that person might not be in everyone's best interest. I don't think it's our central character. It reminds me of something from a Costa-Gavras picture.

Above:
A pair of imaginary bands, Sinister Day's "No One Will Save You", which could be for a stoner metal band from somewhere like the Netherlands. I guess there's a wicked Aussie psy-trance artist with this name too. This started from a graveyard statue and a plume of smoke from a factory. And then, the album Flora from Exotic. The AI spit out a freaky-looking flower from an old series of nature shots I did long ago. I think it looks like a female-fronted indie pop band's second album, circa 1996 or 1997.

Above: A totally unauthorized tour poster for one of my favorite bands, Yo La Tengo, and their latest album, This Stupid World, which is just terrific and can be had for a low price at only the finest local record shoppes in your town.
