Vrolijk pasen!

The long-term problem isn’t that machines can make art (they can’t really) but that a lot of people don’t really like art, or care if the art they’re given is any fucking good.

We should be looking at legislating for a better public. Or designing a really good automatic one.

Always choose a real artist over a worthless AI image, please. Help keep an artist sane (well, somewhat sane anyway) Bandwagon sold seprately!

One of the most common arguments you hear from fans of generative ‘AI’ is that it’s not plagiarizing people’s work, it’s just learning like a human learns. So I’m going to break down why that’s just not true, and why it can never be true, with the existing systems. 1/

Hey, friends! Here are some thoughts on using planes in your compositions.
Text: "Planes" are a depiction of anything that exists in a drawing at a FiXED spatial distance from the viewer, with each grouping of subjects at a shared distance overlapping the next in order to suggest the spatial relationship of each element in the drawing to the others. This image has three planes: (Image of a drawing with a scorpion on a rock, a cowboy sitting on a rock, and a mountain in the background). Each plane in an image signifies a different degree of distance, with the foreground SHARiNG the viewer’s spatial plane, and the background being the farthest from it. There’s clear distance between each plane; no plane “touches” another. Text: why is overlapping the planes necessary? (image: a cowboy apparently close to the viewer, one a ways back, and then a saloon behind him). Unless one plane directly overlaps another, there’s no sure clarity that they are, in fact, suggestive of different distances. (image: the cowboy appearing to be closest is shown to be a giant, swinging the apparently midground cowboy by the head into the two-story saloon that's only about as tall as a person). it’s also important to suggest scale in each plane using subjects whose size the audience is likely to know. when that isn’t possible, try repeating the element-of-unspecified-scale (a) from one plane in another and have it (B) interact there with a subject whose scale is clear. (image: a small round cactus in the foreground, and farther off a cowboy sitting on a similar cactus) Text: A perspective grid composition (A) suggests depth by progressive recession in space, while planar composition (B) suggests it with staggered recession in space. (image: a receding grid and a series of staggered planar elements) The principles of overlapping planar composition can be used with a perspective grid, especially if there are elements with right angles (like buildings). Rough your panel with plane elements in place first... ...then make/place a grid that fits your layout... ...then utilize the grid to make the receding angles match. (image: a wanted man hiding against a wall while a cowgirl crossed the street, looking around). One of the most useful* aspects of a foreground element is to create a sense of immersion for your audience. by putting it on essentially the same plane as the audience itself, the audience becomes a part of the story, seemingly able to touch the foreground, to lean around it for a better view. (image: the wanted man is now decidedly a foreground element). *it also means less time spent drawing all of the detail in the midground or background planes without ever aesthetically shortchanging your audience.
