April 22, 2026 -- Ice Sculptures

I drew at FUSION in Albuquerque:

Ice-into-Flames animation --
like a local ABQ ZOZOBRA

FLOW prompt:

Adric took a bunch of photos near the old Quelab 2.0 of the burnt out building as it is now, in full decay, after a couple of fires (2023 and 2021):

The building at 6th and Haines in Albuquerque


DOTS to SCULPTURES

I like some dotted-line drawing (but not all) -- that AI transformed from my pencil line drawings (with KREA Realtime), by pumping up the contrast and converting some strokes into dotted lines.  I then uploaded the dotted line drawings again and asked KREA Realtime to make the transparent sculptures above:

Drawing into dotted-lines into ice sculpture
using AI

My drawings converted into dotted lines,
with higher contrast

However FLOW repeated some of the dotted line drawings, and eliminated others, when I ask it to pin all the drawings on the wall in a studio:

I asked ChatGPT to blend the two abstract images above into one machine -- note that the free ChatGPT would only let me upload two images to reconstruct with AI (unlike Google's FLOW, which lets me upload many images):

UPDATE (April 22, 2026): The next night we uploaded to the online projection mapping program -- Map Club -- and projected it at Quelab:

ChatGPT Image 2.0

Chat GPT came out with an updated image generator on April 21, 2026 -- ChatGPT Images 2.0:


ChatGPT Images 2.0 did not seem to understand my drawing style -- at least not for what it generated. I may have to use the paid thinking version for it to go out to the web and research my style:

However ChatGPT Images 2.0 did seem to understand the style that I uploaded:
