In lieu of having enough time to go out and photograph something (anything!), I’ve been generating synthographs. Synthography is a method of generating digital media synthetically using machine learning. This is distinct from other graphic creation and editing methods in that synthography uses artifical intelligence text-to-image modeling to generate synthetic media. By using prompt engineering, text descriptions as input to creating a desired image. In simple terminology- type what you want to see and your artificially intelligent tools will create the image. Neat.
My new portfolio website, ART::ificial, (https://synthography.website) is a companion to the Photo Denbow website.
I am continually creating new media and will post them there as often as I can.
In addition to creating synthographs, I will also be curating them into a mood board or inspiration board.
All this for no other reason than it was just for the hell of it.
