This week's penguin: It's always a simple solution if someone else does it.

#penguins #pengcognito #cartoon #cats
Page 1: A fish themed room with a frosted glass door to the outside; a cat shape can be seen through the glass. A penguin in a lavender hat waddles towards the door. Cat: In please! I have a snack for you! Penguin: Is it small and furry? Cat: ....maybe. Penguin: You can come in as long as the "snack" stays outside. Page 2: A ginger cat is walking in through the door, not carrying anything. Cat: You are no fun. Penguin: I just let you out! and right before that, in, and right before that - Cat: I know, I know, but I get bored! Page 3: The penguin is looking at the cat, who is sitting. Penguin: You're going to have to find some ways of amusing yourself that don't include me, and a door, and work! Cat: you know what would solve this whole problem? Penguin: What? Page 4: The penguin is looking down at the cat, who is now turning to leave. Cat: If you installed a cat flap! Penguin: Still me, and a door, and work. Cat: But then I could bring you snacks any time! Penguin: You're not helping your case.

This week's penguin: The after Halloween party can be weirder than the day itself.

pengcognito.com/index.php?id...

#penguins #pengcognito #cartoon #Halloween
Page 1: A penguin in a purple hat is sitting on a bench under a street light, in the early evening, reading a "Zombie News of the World" tabloid. A penguin in a costume of a pirate hat and golf club is waddling in from the right, and another with a wide green straw beach hat is also slightly visible in frame. Purple hat: I see you went to the After Halloween party as "Captain Hook, Passable Pirate, Terrible Golfer" yet again! Pirate hat: I did try to break out of my rut this year! But by the time I got to the pop-up stores, all the "Cthulhu", "Murder Swan", and "Cute Kitty Ears, Tail, and Whip" costumes were sold out! Everywhere! Page 2: The penguin in the pirate hat is now standing, and the penguin in the green straw hat, which can be seen to have a few scraps of herrings attached, is still waddling. Pirate hat: Anyway, the party was a huge success. All the left over treats were eaten! Green hat: Among other things! Page 3: The three penguins are still conversing. Purple hat: And yours is obviously conceptual... let me guess... horror movie? "Where are the Herrings?" or "Night of the Empty Fridge" or "The Great Mackerel Heist"...? Green hat: It started out with many many more fish! But once I said what it meant, everyone started eating it! Page 4: The three penguins are still conversing. Purple hat: And what was it...? Green hat: "Lunch!" Purple hat: Well so maybe you can't blame - Green hat: It was dinner time! Pirate hat: You did win "Most Popular Costume" though!

wild city

Info about how the main image was generated in the alt.txt for it.

#Abstract #Surreal #Organic #Geometric #Network #Texture #Pattern #Futuristic
#Img2img #AiArt #AiArtists #AiArtCommunity #StableDiffusion

want? have: aieris.art/featured/wil...
Abstract view of a futuristic city, with organic branch and root-like structures supporting and connecting geometric, technologically advanced buildings in a massively 3D space. "Wild City" is made from the two source images, an abstract pattern (from an old iOS app I wrote, now sadly un-runnable), and a photo of an interesting asphalt crack pattern. The workflow uses the input images plus minimal prompting to build up the new image. It's an iterative process that is like a tug of war between the two images; each side of the process tries to make the output image as close as possible to what it calculated its input image to be. I'm more generic with prompting ("symmetrical, smooth, carved, polished, soft, high quality, detailed, centered, in frame" for instance) to let the variation come from the inputs. Interesting asphalt deterioration. Abstract patterned image generated from my sadly defunct "Satin" app.

This week's penguin: When the warning sign itself is too scary.
pengcognito.com/index.php?id...
#penguins #pengcognito #cartoon #spookyseason #arachnophobia #arachnophilia
Page 1: A penguin in a lavender hat is waddling through a park setting where tents are set up for an arts & crafts fair. Another penguin in a green hat is waddling away speedily, evidently afraid of something. Green hat: Burn it! Burn it all! From orbit! Lavender hat (thinking): What the...? Page 2: Now two more penguins, one in a brown hat and one in a black hat, also seemingly afraid, are waddling quickly away from the direction the penguin in the lavender hat is going. Brown hat: Nope nope nope nope Black hat: Waddle! Waddle for your lives!!!! Lavender hat (thinking): Must be some penguin selling spooky season stuff. Page 3: A close up of a penguin in a bowler hat and a penguin in a magenta hat conversing. The penguin in the bowler hat clearly has some authority and is holding a triangle warning sign, of which we can only see the top point. Magenta hat: Why do I need a content warning sign?!? The name of the booth is intrinsically a warning! Shouldn't that be enough? Bowler hat: Nobody studies dead languages anymore. So no. Page 4: The penguin in the lavender hat has reached the booth the other penguins were waddling away from. The warning sign shows a silhouette of a spider with the words "Spider art", and a penguin in a tan hat is standing by the sign with a startled look. The booth can now be seen to be filled with paintings of spiders, and the name of it is "Arachnophilia." The penguin in the bowler hat is contemplating the warning sign, and the penguin in the magenta hat (which we can now see is decorated with a metal spider) and the penguin in the lavender hat are conversing. Tan hat: Yikes! Magenta hat: Evidently, some penguins don't like spiders. Lavender hat: Their loss!
