“INERZIA

Gabriele

Modica

This remix uses image interpolation in the latent space. This is a method used to fill in gaps in data by estimating values between two known points, in this case “21.12.2020” & “Inerzia” then framed together with real2real from eden.art

This remix this we used a mix of infinite zoom in Stable diffusion and real2real interpolation in the latent space in Eden.art with Gabrieles piece "Cuspide"

“equilibruim”

‘‘Equilibrium’’ presents contrasting colors and simple geometric shapes that give life to images whose composition is in precarious equilibrium.

Circles resting on a plane, whose barycenter has now exceeded the threshold of the supporting plane and are about to fall into the infinity of the color below or crash into the other shapes placed below it.

Squares that are the bases for compositions of planes, where the balance is put at risk by the action of gravity or by the simple imagination of the viewer.

Gabriele Modica’s photographs rework minimalism starting from the concept of balance, understood not as stasis, but as an intense struggle to avoid the fall or strenuous resistance to it. His works stop the act that precedes the movement, allowing us to predict the “after”.

For this remix, we used img2img in Stable Diffusion with Gabriele's piece "Scoglio". In combination with ControlNet (which acts as a guidance image) and masked with inPainting. This involves marking part of the image with a black brush to create a mask and stable diffusions know to only start using the prompt as a visual guide in that area.

Let's RMX it again!

Click a button below! We want to show you how changing the ControlNet will change the outcome of the image. The ControlNet acts as a visual guide outlining our initial image. In this case we used "Scoglio". We will use the same text prompt and only change the ControlNet between Depth, Canny and Lineart. Our text prompt is : "Space with coloful planets and stars"

“Cecità”

Creative AI can create lucid dreams by analyzing vast amounts of artistic data, such as paintings, music, literature, and other forms of creative expression.

By learning the patterns, styles, and themes present in these works, AI algorithms can generate immersive dreamscapes that align with an artist's vision.

Text2img

Text2Img is a way to turn text into image using a technique called diffusion. Here AI tries to generate an image that matches the caption given by the user. This technique becomes very successful when it's been trained with lot of data. The output model is called a checkpoint.

Your starting Image

Lets simulate how to use AI to create some amazing pieces with Gabriele photograph as a guiding image. First we must choose a checkpoint so we can get to generating. In this case we are using the checkpoint of to create these pre-rendered images:

Dreamlike Photoreal 2.0

text Guidance

This is where you write a text prompt to help guide your AI in creating cool visuals. So now it will use the structure of the structural guiding image and your text prompt to create a new image that will generate as soon as you choose your prompt.

Your chosen prompt

Visual Guidance

This is also know as control net. We want to show case 3 different options you can choose that will create a guiding overlay on your initial image

This piece uses a singular prompt (The visual guide for AI to use) and 2 guidance images "Profondita and Pressione", then with latent space interpolation (real2real) pieces was rmxed.
