AI art predictions with a laundry list

This is a very long post, so as an advertisement to entice you to read it, let’s start off with my proof points. It ends with advice on what to do if you make things and/or want to make things and are concerned.

I remember when royalty-free microstock ($1/photo) began. It fundamentally changed stock photography, ending a significant number of careers, creating a significantly larger number of photographers -- as well as graphic designers AND illustrators who now had floods of reference photos they could not access before.

I remember when boilerplate WordPress starter themes began. They largely are a “paint by numbers” kit of parts. A lot of web developers rallied against it, claiming they would go out of business. Some did, most did not, a great number went into business using them as tools.

Hell, I remember when WordPress started. Similar story to above.

I remember when Adobe created built-in color palette tools. These are, essentially, color wheels. There were a lot of designers and illustrators who claimed this would give the public and/or low skill designers too much power.

I remember when free logo generators started. See above notes.

I remember when ultra cheap graphic design freelance services began. Fiverr and Upwork, etc. See above notes.

Hell I remember when digital printers started gaining a neck grip on small scale commercial printing. Bad time to be a 1 and 2 color press shop.

Tech bros and their priests will continue to throw money and other resources at it from about mid 2022 until early 2024

A combination of boredom, other opportunities (good, bad, and neutral), lawsuits, and the inescapable physics of what is required to create new AI art will taper off interest around early to mid 2024

The arc of interest will diminish far sooner but will occasionally be spiked back up by a combination of:

^- click-bait news articles and new breakthroughs in tech

^- click-bait news articles that claim there is a new breakthrough because the reporter/outlet is just catching on to existing things

^- tech bros claiming a new breakthrough (that isn’t new) because they have reinvented existing tech and/or are outright stealing from existing tech

Some levels of AI will continue forever with varying degrees of aesthetic attraction

On some level, the continuation will be because some tech bros and their priests are interested in pursuing the tech and are uninterested in the benefits/costs

On another level, it will continue as a weapon against artists (at large) because all tech invented is utilized as a weapon by bad actors against specific groups people

On yet another level, it will continue as a weapon against specific artists because all tech invented is utilized as a weapon by bad actors against specific people

Some (a moderate sample size) artists will lose everything for a little while but ultimately adapt, a smaller sample size everything permanently and leave the art profession

The public at large will begin in earnest interest as a “we can create stuff too!” but then lose interest over time because quality (as measured by uniqueness) and accessibility (as measured as “free vs. paid”) will steadily decrease

The decrease of interest will spike tech bros desperate to reclaim their throne into accelerating outright theft and abuse because at the nature these specific tech bros are parasites and have nothing positive to offer either the tech or art ecosystems

Corporate interests will both utilize AI art for their own interests while suing to stop their own direct properties from being used. These lawsuits will generate attention-grabbing headlines but almost exclusively be settled out of court and/or the AI companies will simply be bought to bring the tech/people into the fold/shut down

Artists (at large) will engage in the various platforms. There will be generalized outrage for 1 - 5 years as a combination of acceptance, resignation, and useful labor-saving tools are built

^- schisms will enter the art community. Some points will be made as legitimate discourse, most will be stated as individual artists use this as the point-of-the-day to prove themselves better than everyone else.

Ultimately:

Tech will continue building what they can, scraping every resources available at the lowest cost possible and often through piracy, until it becomes untenable via cost and boredom

Artists will continue to create, adapt, and evolve. Some unfortunately will legitimately lose everything and drop out of the career for a period of years, some forever.

There will be a convergence point then the two will separate out slowly. The path will be painful for artists. The public will vastly be ignorant, those who know mostly won’t care, some will passionately rally for artists.

Advice for people who make things:

Keep making things. Despair is an automated weapon that targets you, the more you feed it, the stronger it grows.

Do not personalized despair. It is easy to give into the thought of a conspiracy theory against you, or your industry. I view the accuracy more as “people/institutions who do not know, or care, about your existence are building their own empire. Sometimes you’re a tree line of border protection against wind, sometimes you’re lumber. Either way you’re not considered in any instance except when you’re useful, and never as an individual.”

Protect yourself as possible (file copyright takedown notices, keep an eye on prices to keep yourself in business, do not actively participate in contests that scrape AI, block people onsite who advocate for AI art if you yourself do not)

Protect your business funds as possible (multiple streams of income where possible, keep an eye on costs -- is fancy packaging actually necessary, from a business perspective, or are you making it fancy because you’re an artist)

Build a community as you can, everywhere you can. There is an absolute effort-to-cost ratio that must be watched -- you can, as of writing, literally sign up for a MySpace if you want. I wouldn’t recommend trying to build a network there.

And to repeat: keep making things. There are tools you used to get started, there are tools you USE RIGHT NOW, I promise you, that were once heralded as “the thing that will kill art.” It didn’t, except where it did, and in both instances everything evolved to whatever our current state is.

Navigating the world of photography with instincts

Listening to photography podcasts, I’ve observed a common theme – photographers being asked to give advice to other upcoming photographers. However, one crucial nugget seems to be overlooked: the profound impact of following one’s instincts even in photography. In my journey, I’ve come to appreciate intuition as more than a fleeting feeling—it’s a powerful tool. It has enabled me to discern not…

hi! saw you were prepping for an art show. im a bit new in terms of showcasing my art, so do you have any tips on getting into art shows, creating exhibit themes, and things like that? if not, no worries. love your art!! :)

Hey there!

I would love to give myself a pat on the back for getting into a show, but it's a faculty show for the school I work at so I can't take too much credit! XD

I'm an freelance illustrator primarily, so I don't have a ton of experience in gallery work (perhaps some of my more gallery-oriented followers can drop some hot tips in the comments here) -- but I'll try to give you a couple general tips.

As far as themes go - the old adage of "do what you like" is very true - I wouldn't create a bunch of work I wasn't interested in just to get into some prestigious gallery, just like I wouldn't make fan art of something I didn't like. Try to find something you enjoy the tactile process of, a subject that interests you, or meaning that pulls at your heart. That will make the work truthful and honest. I feel like folks tend to catch on when you're just making things you're not jazzed about.

As tends to be the norm today, make sure you have some sort of website/social media dedicated to only your art. You're going to have to show a portfolio to any prospective gallery, so having something simple and clear makes this super easy. Doesn't need to be paid or fancy! A tumblr/insta/wordpress works just fine.

Reaching galleries is always a difficult thing, but I find if you start small then you create a rolling momentum. Hit up your local library or coffee shop and see if they'd be willing to host your work for a couple weeks, and even have a little opening. It gets people in the location to potentially get the place money/exposure, and more people will see your work. Check out your area league of artists or arts association and get on a mailing list for gallery open calls. Join them too! Making connections will open up more opportunities for you as an artist. If you can land a couple of smaller shows they can go on your resume as experience.

And dont give up! These things can take time, and you're likely to get plenty of rejections as well as acceptances. If you check out the kind of work that a gallery shows already, you can get an idea of what kind of artwork they accept. You wouldn't want to pitch photography to a painting gallery, y'know? Sometimes your work is wonderful, but it's not suitable for the gallery you're trying to get into.

I hope that helps, and good luck! <3

Robert Walrond :: "Cleopatra", 1914. Autochrome, additive colour process. | Museum of New Zealand - Te Papa

also on wordPress

The story of Cleopatra was an exotic but respectable theme for theatre and dress-up events for women at the time. The Cleopatra myth and look were popularised by international performers such as Sarah Bernhardt and by numerous stage productions and films from the late nineteenth century onwards. With the advent of photography, part of performing the role became having a portrait made while in costume. The arrival of the autochrome was greeted with excitement because its rich colours could now be captured. continue reading

Welcome to Transcendragon

I’m a small creator on tumblr that does art! I mostly post visual art here, but I do writing as well. This blog is here to share the art I make, in whatever form it takes. In most of my posts I try to include descriptions for all of my art nowadays, to make it more accessible! 

I used to mostly do pride themed moodboards from my own original photography, mostly of nature themes, like this transgender moodboard: 

Nowadays I mostly do visual art on Procreate, though I still do a lot of pride themed art! I do art of natural scenes and fantasy creatures primarily. Like this nonbinary themed art of sea cliffs at dawn: 

or this art of a dragon battle: 

Recently I’ve been combing creatures and pride themes, for a series I’m calling “pride in a jar” of little dragon creatures in jars themed to different pride flags. Here’s my second one, themed to the sunset lesbian flag colors: 

What I do varies a lot, so I’ve also done art of the cat from Stardew valley and some art inspired by the Wild Beyond the Witchlight Campaign module. (I’m a first time DM running a campaign for some irl friends!) 

I complain about writing sometimes on my personal blog, @transcendragonreblogs​ I do occasionally post poetry here from my Wordpress, like the poem “If I Could Hold Your Heart”: 

If I could hold your soft heart Beating in my palms Tender warmth against my fingers Matched with the movement of life I would cup my hands so gently And kiss every artery At our core we’re all oddly shaped And worn with life When you give me your heart It’s the gift of all the world I greatly appreciate the security Especially since You hold mine too

I’m happy to follow back and I’ll reblog content from my personal reblog. I have a variety of things, so I hope you’ll check out my art! Give it a look, you might even find some of my old asofterworld edits or my general pride photography edits.
