DOTTED LINES

I altered some of the drawings from my book -- FINISH MY FIGURE DRAWINGS -- with AI using the "Realtime" feature in KREA -- with the prompt: "dotted lines" (like I have since April 20, 2026):

MUSEUM AR


My ART DREAM is to exhibit with AUGMENTED REALITY my AI Sculptures in the museums like we did in the Denver Art Museum in March 2026:

My FAKE AI sculpture

THE AUGMENTED DREAM

More specifically, I want to exhibit my AUGMENTED REALITY sculptures in FIXED LOCATION in the Albuquerque Museum Sculpture Garden, as in this AI mock-up below:


3D SCULPTURE "TARGET"

I really want to use one "Target" Sculpture to summon two different AUGMENTED REALITY experiences.  The Bill Barrett abstract sculpture in front of the Albuquerque Museum has distinct views from different sides -- so I used the North and Head On views as "Targets" to summon two different AR sculptures in PICTARIZE. 


Go to THIS LINK and try to view two different AR experiences from the same sculpture in person at the Albuquerque Museum:

FIRST AUGMENT
As viewed from the SOUTH side

AR "content": Paperpose.glb


South "TARGET" View

I took a photo of the SOUTH View, and used RemoveBG to remove the background, upscaled that in ChatGPT, and then used that simpler sculpture contour as a "Target" image view:

I removed the background in RemoveBG,
and upscaled in ChatGPT
(keeping the transparent background)

SECOND AUGMENT
As viewed HEAD ON

AR "content": 260316A.glb


Head On "TARGET" View

I took a photo of the HEAD ON View, and used RemoveBG to remove the background, upscaled that in ChatGPT, and then used that simpler sculpture contour as a "Target" image view:

NOTE: The First AUGMENT (from the South Side) only worked after I upscaled the "Target" image with ChatGPT.  That is, it worked from all the three photos online (in this web post).  I have not tried yet in the real world Albuquerque Museum.

The Second Augment (Head On) only worked from the first "Target" image, and not the two following photos on this blog page.  I have not tried yet in the real world Albuquerque Museum.

 GENERATING 3D

If this works I would like to generate and add a lot of 3D Augmented Reality Sculptures to the Albuquerque Museum Sculpture Garden.  That means I would have to scan objects with Scaniverse (like we did in 2024); use MESHY online for 2D-to3D generations; or perhaps go 2D-to-3D locally with Trellis:
(We tried unsuccessfully to install the 6 VRAM Trellis above on April 26, but used Claude instead of following the instructions)
