  1. fiberscape

    Main image is made from the two others - the pattern (from an old mac app), and the close up of denim fibers (because new iphone with very nice cameras.)

    The workflow uses the input images plus some minimal prompting to build up the new image. It's an iterative process that constantly checks to see how well the new image fits with both the old ones (metaphorically similar to GAN?)

    I get 12 variations from each pair of images. No post to speak of on this one, but sometimes I do a lot and/or combine images.

  2. Nua-#CelticSoulJourney in #Ireland: Tobereevul („Well of Aeval”): #Ireland has many ancient goddesses who come into literature and folklore as #Fairy Queens. Among the most famous is #Aeval, connected with the southwestern region of #Munster and specifically with a #airy mount at Killaloe in east Co. Clare, near which a well called Tobereevul (“well of Aeval”) gushes from beneath the crag Craganeevul (“rock of Aeval”); she is also associated with the mountain Slieve Bernaugh, where she was said to have lived. 

     

    Her name means “beautiful” or “the lovely one,” but her behavior was more threatening than loving. Queen of the two-dozen #banshees of the region whose appearance predicted death, she appeared as a Washer at the Ford before disasters like the defeat of the historical hero Brian Boru; she was especially connected with the O’Brien family. Aeval judged the famous Midnight Court of the poet Brian Merriman, in which prudish Irishmen were found guilty of not being satisfactory lovers. Her rival was the sea fairy Clídna, who turned Aeval into a white cat.
