1939 Pontiac .. transparent display at the 1939 Worlds Fair General Motors pavilion

[shortboxcomicsfair]

In Alice Scarpa's wonderful new comic, 'Dead Days,' a grown-up Alice recalls a pivotal teenage summer spent in the Northern Italian countryside, navigating driving lessons with her goofy dad, the tribulations of adolescent love, and the decline of a place and people. Coming to the fair this October!

This comic will be released digitally in October as part of ShortBox Comics Fair, an online-only event that will see the release of over 100+ new, original comics from artists around the world!

Fair MisUse: Mona Lisa

or... Ever heard a JPG sing itself to you?

I have been playing around with Suno a bit, something I will be inflicting upon you all more in the coming weeks, and I found something interesting.

Suno lets you prompt music with symbols.

In the Lyrics box, if you put together strings of symbols and punctuation, the system interprets that into the structure of the music. Not quite sure how, or what symbols link to what notes because I'm absolutely a monkey with a flamethrower when it comes to music, but if I build a faux waveform with punctuation marks and extended ASCII, I get repeatable motifs.

Example from an early test: -_---…--.--

And since that worked, I prompted with this:

I loaded the JPG file into notepad, copied the results, and used them as a lyrics prompt (first 3000 characters at least). I've since found that if I can crunch an image to around 2k I can load the whole image's data into the lyrics block.

For the style prompt, I used a truncated version of the Wikipedia info block on the painting:

Mona Lisa Italian: Gioconda, Monna Lisa da Vinci c. 1503-1517 Oil on poplar panel Lisa del Giocondo 77cm×53cm

(I had to omit the word "Leonardo" from the prompt because there's apparently a musician called that.)

(the same prompt (more or less, had to change some symbols MJ uses for code) run through Midjourney, as a bonus).

Mona Lisa (the Song) and the above image are very obviously in the public domain. Not really sure about the Machine Ghouls' Hunt since technically I did compose it.. but if you wanna use it, go nuts.

My SIL's shitzu is really good with her kids I think that'd be a good choice. Hes a really chill dude and the other ones I've met were too. But I don't know if that's breed related.

Honestly, I never met a shih tzu that wasn't just a Nice Little Dude. Like, I've met a lot of little dogs with Little Dog Syndrome (and for good reason!!) But I've never met a shih tzu who wasn't generally happy with life. Could be because on average they tend to have slightly less than 2 active brain cells at any given time, and you can't really be full of rage if you can't comprehend the injustices of the world. Or perhaps because their tubular little bodies are just so naturally Friend Shaped they can't override the predisposition to cheeriness. But I've never been snapped at, growled at, or in any way threatened by a shih tzu, and I met a LOT of shih tzus working at the shelter, which is generally where you find yourself getting barked, growled, snapped, and menaced at. I had one take a flying leap off the exam table and almost kill himself, and then I had to spend half an hour draining the hidden abscess he had forcibly burst in the process of landing, and the most negative thing he said to me was "mmrmph."

Nothing but good things to say about those goofy little gremlins from me.

It should not have taken me 16ish years to finally realize that Auto from the hit Pixar film Wall-E was heavily inspired by Hal 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
