As today is the sad 5th anniversary of the fire of Notre Dame de Paris, I wanted to go back on this idea that came to my mind :
Proposing a souvenir-lighter.
For sure on the dark-humor side.
Here the first Notre-Dame souvenir lighter visual
Don’t get me wrong,
I’m saddened by this event.
But who am I to blame the actions of providence?
Indeed.
Here are the paper-sketches that I would do till 2023 :
Here now, results from researches and struggles with ChatGPT and Microsoft’s Ai :
Not much more to say,
Result isn't exaclty what I wanted but the idea is here,
Describing a complex object isn't the best use-case for those Ai for generating picture I feel like,
I first tried to make all in the same prompt,
Then I tried to make my prompt throught different iterations but didn't workout really,
Then I tried again, starting from the global idea of the souvenir-cathedral first, then the lighter idea wasn't the best neither,
I then tried this new tool for editing specific zones, but didn't work as espected:
Why all that ?
While even a few months from now I would have to prototype an idea by drawing it on paper, or probably struggling on 3D softwares to bring an idea into existence, I think using Ai should be the new first step to illustrate an idea efficiently.
This work is all about challenging Ai tools to generate images of ideas and see how it goes (..and challenge my “prompting skills” that seems to be usefull in a near futur!)
