Sometimes I wonder if you are nuts and then my doubts are reassured.

What can I say... sometimes I feel like a pigeon in Times Square in New York City with pedestrians just gorging me on breadcrumbs. From time to time I waddle away and scribble a few things in the sewers.

You come up with some fine mixes on deep dream generator. Mine usually don't match as well.

Thanks. I supported them on Patreon and mostly pay for the top-level processing energy/resolution as well for the past several months. I got a lot of practice and noticed a bunch of techniques for producing better results which includes tons of trial-and-error and tweaking settings.

Another technique which I haven't done as much but which I've noticed often creates pleasing results is to find two interesting processes of an image and hybridize them together. I did that for the header image of this post:

Generally, the settings I would recommend with "Deep Style" are
.
Enhance: Extra-High
Resolution: 2.1MP
Iterations Boost: x0.6
Style Weight: 50% or 40%
Style Scale: 100% or 80%

Thanks for sharing the Korean art. I haven't seen or read much about it!

Not in Tennessee yet — final stretches of packing today, loading the boxes tomorrow, and driving all day Thursday. Then unload Friday and, well.... I'll have a lot more free time and peace of mind!

Take care Chris.
