Scrolling my collection of previously used prompts on Nightcafe, in the deepest recesses of my archive I found a prompt that had not been used for quite some time.
Aside from obvious favorites in top position (I mention myself first, since AI had been trained on my art), I list Gustav Klimt and Alphonse Mucha next, then I had rolled in Giger, Arcimboldo and Bosch to make it interesting, but the actual weird twist was not as much the 'apocalyptic wonderland' but references to a David Lynch Eraserhead character and the cinematic esoteric stylists Brothers Quay.
I am not interested in trying to 'fake' a specific artist and style with AI, but to see what unusual mixes and cross-influences would produce, more in tune with my own surrealist tendencies of the bizarre and unusual. Be that AI or analog, if a result is predictable, than I feel I had failed.
The technical part set aside, now comes the fun part. In one of the chat rooms on NC I mentioned it is near impossible, even with the 'safe mode' engaged, to avoid 'racy' results from my prompt, which must be labelled NSFW. In fact, one of the results I could not even evolve, because NC refused to accept it as the seed image, returning several 'Error' messages.
Digging up an old prompt from my archives and running it several times with modes I didn't have back when I first wrote that prompt. I EVOLVED it from Dreamshaper v8, which in turn was a evolve from an earlier iteration, finally with Fluently XL Lightning. Obviously, except in rare cases, anything with Klimt turns up 'unsafe' even if you check the 'safe' mode.
Prior to this, I tried the same prompt on 'Stable Cascade'
That should do for now - I had been playing with other modes and concepts simultaneously, so here a little preview what is next:
Both of these are based on some AI music I was generating on suno.com, example ORLANDO ENRAGED - a brutal heavy metal epic.
