Coloured Waves

Further Investigation into Generative Art – My Touch Designer Journey continues.  I am continuing to log the time that I spend on this via time-lapse.  I decided that by adding in a clock the passage of time became more noticeable.  Below is the time-lapse video and below that, is the resulting video from tutorial.  All of these generative art videos work from node networks which I save.  These networks can then be tweaked and changed to my liking at a later time.  Currently I am just getting together some solid foundational programs.  I feel less bothered about following the tutorials now because I know that I can tweak my tutorial programs to such a degree that the resulting work is completely mine.  Unfortunately I need to keep going through this process if I am to learn to build networks of my own.  Since reading my book about the Ai Superpowers, China, US and the New World Order, I learned that this is not an unusual process in the programming world.  People create, share and borrow bit of code from each other and this accelerates the learning process. It is quite a risky strategy that I’m pursuing here, because if I […]

Liquid Glass

A Touch Designer Tutorial – I know that time is against me if I want to become proficient at ‘Touch Designer’. Therefore, whenever I have an opportunity to experiment with a new tutorial I take it.  I also like to give a time-lapsed visual record of the time that I spend on projects like this.  I am particularly interested in time and I’m hoping that these time-lapse videos will make an interesting addition to my project work.   A 35 Second Time-lapse of a 1.5 Hour Tutorial       The Result of the Tutorial Now that the network design has been finalised, I am able to tweak numerous parameters in order to arrive at a result that I’m happy with.  Below is the final result once I made all of my adjustments.         Variation of a Theme Once I have created a base video, I always like to experiment further.  Below is a variation on the video above.  However, I do prefer the original above.  The liquid glass effect is much more vibrant and there are less distracting elements.  I still think that the experiment below was worth a try even though I don’t think it […]

Network Patterns

Surprising Results  – I was quite pleased with the results of my Blender computer generated Chladni Patterns.  However, just as the title to this blog suggests the end results may not necessarily have been the most interesting part. In order to generate the patterns in Blender I needed to create a network.  I found this tentacle-like network (almost like neurones) quite fascinating. I cover the network diagram in my post ‘Blender – Who Knew?’  Following on from this I decided to ‘stylise’ the network and from there I created some patterns.   A Stylised Network     Patterns Created From The Stylised Network A Collage of These Ideas Below is a collage of these images together with the original stylised image at the top.  This is purely an experiment and I will save these designs for later as they may prove useful in future projects.

Ai on the March

Saving Assets for Later – In the process of experimenting with Ai text to image, I generated a number of stills documented in my post Human Coding and Ai Generated Imagery for Animation.  Currently I am waiting for some ‘Chladni’ equipment arriving from Ireland.  Therefore, instead of wasting time, I decided to experiment with some of the small animations I made in that post.   Video 1. A combination of Clips The video below was a composite of all of the short clips I generated from my software tutorial. I like the fluid motion of the clips and the way they spread. I feel this could be a visual metaphor for the relentless spread of Ai into our lives.   Video 2. Ai from an Early Age The video below is an experiment moving on from video 1.  I added an iPad and a cake and candle.  This represents the march of Ai from an increasingly early age.   Video 3. Ai on the March This was my preferred video from the series of experiments.  It is a simple video short exploring the tentacle like spread of images across a screen.  The calming music to each video is there to […]

Human Coding and Ai Generated Imagery for Animation

A Steep Learning Curve – Since learning all about text to image Ai technology, I decided to explore it further.  Ai seems to be everywhere – if it were a living creature, I would liken it to one with tentacles – perhaps an octopus or a squid?  It might also be likened to a tree with branches sprawling everywhere and with increasing speed crawls further into our lives.  I suspect it will become ever more pervasive and how it is used, either for good or ill, will be down to us all.  Running with the idea that Ai has tentacles and or branches, I decided to try a text prompt to see what Ai made of the request.  I used ‘Tentacles, Branches, Network  and Fractals’ as my main prompt.  All of the images below were created from this text. I was pleased with the images above because I was looking for a good example image for a new visual programming tutorial I wanted to try.  The tutorial was about generating a growing image.  The tentacle-like images above seemed perfect for this, especially in relation to my thoughts about the tentacle nature of Ai. Below is the image that I chose […]
