EBD Digital Paint experiments 3

 

I added some additional treatments to the source below. So i process the source, then load that processed source into the source area, then run the PASeq i used for above.

None of these work like conventional 'natural media' digital paint emulation, where you blit colored paint onto the canvas, usually with some dispersion of some kind in the mix. Energy Based Model (EBM) digital painting works by subjecting the existing canvas to energy minimization forces, forces you can configure in the paint synthesizer in this example.  You run the system recursively and it minimizes the energy of the system.  This emulates what is going on under the hood in many neural net image synthesis algorithms.  It has a distinctive look (and behavior) that is somewhat different than conventional natural media digital paint.
