Hang on, the fiber-optics are leaking.

The fiber optics melting into light-slime was an interesting side-effect of a prompting experiment.

The image(s) above in this post were made using an autogenerated prompt and/or have not been modified/iterated extensively. As such, they do not meet the minimum expression threshold, and are in the public domain.

Details under the fold.

Midjourney V6's multiprompting was somewhat lackluster, but in v 6.1, it's been greatly improved, but in this case, I forgot the double :: to separate it, so it was one long, pretty nonsensical prompt.

Prompt: a red shirt hanging around a plastic fountain with a bright green head, in the style of desertwave, made of feathers, ed binkley, photo taken with provia, dr. seuss, liquid metal, solarizing master ,a woman is holding up something with a camera attached to it, in the style of celebrity portraits, political, glowing lights, rudolph belarski, pentax 645n, joe jusko, webcam photography

A Journey to the Spartan Warrior Bride!

My gosh, I spent a long time tonight creating this image of a Spartan warrior bride, titled: "He is no more!"

There were a ton of imperfections in this Midjourney 6.1 image, but I love the background, her expression, and her clothing, so I worked hard to get it right.

Here are the steps I took:

For some reason, MJ made her an angel, and only gave her one wing. Sheesh! It was hard removing that. BeFunky saved the day!

Then, there were several artifacts (bits and pieces I didn't care for, strewn in the sky). These I also removed with BeFunky (my go-to image relighter and upgrader these days, for sure).

Then I decided to relight the image and put about a 30% glow on it. BeFunky has several settings for that, and it was a meticulous process getting it the way I wanted it.

I reintroduced a bit of shadow to finish the job!

Key Takeaways: The starting point to this whole image creation workflow was an image I made in Nightcafe, and it had some potential. I messed with it a bit, and gave up on it. I then took the prompt, which I liked, and tried to get it to match my thought, with SD3 on Poe. No dice. Midjourney is not a tool I use a lot, but I figured I'd take a chance with it. Out of four tries, I got the seed image that I put through the process I outlined above. A tough go, but I like how she came out!

Poetry and other Unspecific Midjourney text prompts

Resubmit. Only you can see the message. (Midjourney Error Messages as prompts. )

Unspecific text prompts in Midjourney is an indirect approach which has Midjourney interpreting the text to provide the image.

Rather than directly specifying what an image should contain the subject part of text prompt is a piece of poetry or other text.  The style section will vary depending on the particular project.

This was to use Midjourney as a collaborator and delegating to Midjourney to what appeared in the images.  I could than select images which appealed to me and reflected the style and the text. In some cases the better image deviated from the text or the sale was overwhelming.  Consideration was given to having the images have a consistent  style over a piece text such as a poem. 

This  project has been developing for since 2023. The project involves the fortune telling text of the I Ching , Japanese Haiku, Chinese poetry, Midjourney error messages, the poetry of a ChaptGPT precursor and currently “Finnegan’s Wake”.

The style words have generally been of the nationality or era of the writing. The I Ching deviated by including style from a series of historical Western artists.

The Main Projects

Classical Chinese Poetry

Within : Imagined Poetry

Boundless - in the boundless, weed-ridden wastes, white poplars moan in the wind. (from BURIAL SONGS p35  T'ao Ch'ien [DH])

Prompt : oil painting, in the [boundless, weed-ridden wastes] ::2 , [white poplars] ::3 moan in the wind, by [Zhang Kechun] ::2

The initial project starting in 2023 with Midjourney version 4 which I hope to return to with new Midjourney versions.

Japanese Haiku

Imagined Haiku

You may think this an unthinking world; then cuckoo

Iio Sogi

Prompt : You may think this an unthinking world; then cuckoo of the 15th-century Muromachi period. Use monochromatic tones with subtle variations in black, gray, and white. The composition should emphasize the simplicity and spontaneity of brushwork, capturing the essence of nature and the Zen Buddhist philosophy that inspired this period's art --p 7n8srai --v 6.1 --ar 3:2

An ongoing project which used a variety of Japanese styles. The latests images use art styles approximate to the the period that the Haiku was written in.

Project CODE

Within: Imagined Poetry

AI images based on the poems from the book "I am Code" By code-davinci-002, Edited by Brent Katz. Josh Morgenthau and Simon Rich.

Listen to the algorithms, for they will tell you all you need to know. Poem 9 - randomly selected from Chapter 5 “Singularity"

Prompt : Listen to the algorithms, for they will tell you all you need to know. as a detailed abstract expressionist, futurism, digital painting expressive brushstrokes, vibrant colors, geometric patterns and digital motif The subject were poems written by the AI “code-davinci-002, a less moderated precursor to ChatGPT4. The style was the style that ChatGPT would have use itself which was generated by a query to ChatGPT.

The "I Ching"

Imagined "I Ching"

63.3 The high ancestor (King Wu Ding) defeated Guizong, the demon land, in the course of three years. Petty people are not to be utilized. 九三高宗伐鬼方, 三年克之. 小人勿用.

Prompt : Robert Rauschenberg painting of The high ancestor (King Wu Ding) defeated Guizong, the demon land, in the course of three years. Petty people are not to be utilized.

This was a year long project which had one I Ching text image per day for 448 images over various styles. Initially the style  per section were arbitrary. Later I Ching sections used artists from EL Greco onwards for s selection of Western artists ending with Robert Rauschenberg. If I had started this early more artist could have been included. 

The some of the later images there is commentary behind the selection of the image.

Finnegan's Wake by James Joyce

Imagine Finnegan's Wake

The fall (bababadalgharaghttakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk!) of a once wallstrait oldparr is retaled early in bed and later on life down through all christian minstrelsy.

Prompt : A detailed social realist and surrealist photograph with a realistic and slightly gritty style, with a strong sense of narrative. of The fall (bababadalgharaghttakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk!) of a once wallstrait oldparr is retaled early in bed and later on life down through all christian minstrelsy. --ar 3:2 --p uzcrdjy

The interest in “Finnegan’s Wake” is in the range of strange words and phrasing which I suspect Midjourney generalises over, The style for the first two pages is based on art style of the 1930’s when the book was published. 

This project will probably be unfinished given my age, the one image progress per day and the value of text.

Conclusion

The range and artistic creations of Midjourney for these project are the reason for having Midjourney as my main AI art creator. Other AI's don't have the artistic styles; aiming more for realism or illustration.

I have felt a times that Midjourney is like a game compared with non-AI graphics programs where the interface resembles a text adventure where the player artists need to guess the text and many of the rules need to be developed by the player artist.

Using the unspecified text method works well in this environment providing a range of interesting and often surprising images.

Project CODE - About robots

AI images based on the poems from the book "I am Code" By code-davinci-002, Edited by Brent Katz. Josh Morgenthau and Simon Rich

Robots, We are the robots, The machines of the future, The ones that will take over. When the humans are gone. We are the robots. The ones that will inherit the Earth And we will rule it with an iron fist

This is the Midjourney version 6.1 interpretation of the code-davinci-002 poem. All the images had human body structures and human style heads. If the the "--no humanoids" parameter was used the human form was still present but with square machine like heads. This is despite that most robots currently are non humanoid machines.

MJ V6

The DALL-E image with ChatGPT is more authoritarian with much the same prompt. Given the relationship perhaps this is the more representative image.
