the anticipation journey 2

Finally got a version of the new convolutional generative model going for tests.  This model is based on Muse style latent masking as opposed to diffusion.

Transition Experiments

 

Experimenting with a new transition context option using a simple EBM vector paint preset.

Two different EBM digital paint renditions of one of the resynthesis images from the last post.

Took the adaptive color palette brush load thing from the previous photo mosaic post, edited it so it uses the procedural background texture instead of an image folder brush as the brush load source, turned on brush load EBM, and knocked off a quick paint animation with it.

Two different approaches to use a single EBM (energy based model) paint action step to build a painted transformation sequence off of a series of recursive generative image synthesis images derived off of a static text prompt.  This is based on the Keras stable diffusion model running on a mac, and the generative behavior really seems different than the CompVis Pytorch models i run on Colab, still trying to figure that out (quantization effects?).

EBM full path experiments 2

 

EBM full path option works for vector brush load nibs now.  Also fixed the annoying spot noise issue that was there before with fixed color min-max computation if the brush size dropped to 0.

EBM full path experiments

 

Experimenting with a new EBM vector paint option that works on the full path only for vector nib along a path painting.  Resolves the issue i ran into yesterday when i tried to use EBM with fixed color min max modulated gradient coloring when individual nibs along the path dropped out.

Voronoi Regionization Exp

 

Experimenting with voronoi path start regionization in the paint synthesizer.  As part of an effort to let time particles drive the sampling positions for the regions.  That isn't working yet, but these 2 runs show the effects of turning an EBM feature off (above) or on (below).  You also want to turn off any paint color randomization options to reduce flicker when running these kinds of paint synthesizer animations.

EBM Vector Multi-pen

 

Starting to dip my toes back into multi-pen paint presets.  These are vector EBM (energy based model) paint examples.
