More fun with VQGAN+CLIP -- Sculptural

Inspired by Matteo Rattini and his Sculptures that don't Exist, I ran some of my Paint 3D drawings through VQGAN+CLIP, aiming to get a more sculptural effect:

The first image in this blog post was uploaded and altered in another AI program -- ARTBREEDER -- where now everyone can tweak it and download different variations, like the one below:

  • YANDEX is the Russian search engine, and it usually gives me the best selection of "similar images."  The YANDEX links above each image in this blog post, are specific "reverse image searches" to that image.
  • Idea: I could enlarge a few images in the AI program waifu2x, and then print a few of these images out large on the big printer at Quelab and have an interesting pop-up exhibition of FAKE ART.  I did that for the "Our Existential Space" exhibition.


There is a way to blend VQGAN+CLIP with the Visions of Chaos software (instructions here).
