art - ars gratia artis

Found that in my archives, thought I'd share with you guys.

Hey /cyb/. I just finished making this site. It lets you make Deep Dream images

https://dreamscopeapp.com/

Would love your feedback and to have you try it out. It's much faster than running CUDA/Caffe yourself.

The gallery is here:

Enjoy!

(P.S. the attached image was made with the "art deco" process.)

I'm depressed, recommend me music based on what I like.
>But what do you like anon?

I think it's about time we have a proper music thread since I imagine most lainons listen to a variety of music genres and we could really use some music related conversation.

I would like to start by making some kind of sticky on how to get music in general for those that don't know;

—

– search the /mu/ archives https://archive.rebeccablacktech.com/mu/
* for example: if you're looking for Michael Pisaro - Continuum Unbound you would search for "Michael Pisaro http" or "Continuum mega", etc
– also be sure to check /mu/ share or request threads since they are abundant with things anons are eager to share;
* example: go to 4chan.org/mu/share || 4chan.org/mu/request from time to time and skim the threads
– register on and install soulseek
* if you can't find it, it's probably on soulseek or what.cd
– over the time memorize/bookmark various sites maintained by individuals that offer ddls for music releases;
* example(my fav): nodata.tv
– {optional} get into what.cd

Hello lains, this thread is for 1998AD, a community project that we're working on. Come join us on freenode #1998AD. We've got a few artists and writers already, and if you have some ideas to contribute we'll be happy to listen.

Here's the original /diy/ post:

"I had a pretty /cyb/ idea for a project that we could possibly work on together. Making some fiction, art, or multimedia stuff. I was basically thinking about some of Google's projects and what their possible long term goals could be. I ended up connecting the dots in a kind of plausible way.

The idea is centered on Fiber being a plan to create infrastructure to leverage software as a service. Google will buy out industry standard software companies and incorporate photoshop, autodesk, maya, etc. into the Google drive suite. With the 1GB/s throughput, all the software can execute nearly entirely server-side, making for uncrackable DRM. Because of this, having a good computer is now obsolete. All you need is a cheap chromebook to connect to software services. At this point Microsoft and Apple have pretty much had their market niche desecrated, and are acquired as subsidiaries. Intel and AMD quickly follow suit, since the only people who need good processors are developers and engineers. At this bleak point it looks like Google has an absolute monopoly in the tech market, and will probably just keep growing. Facebook and other social media are likely targets. Letting imagination run wild, I can imagine a Google Party running for office in the US. We've basically set the stage for a cyber-punk dystopia within the next 25 years.

There are tons of great narrative possibilities with this. Imagine criminal warez groups that break into company headquarters to try to steal executables and personal data. Linux users and free software may become culturally associated with terrorism because of their opposition to proprietary software. A sub culture of freedom fighters emerge who scavenge and trade black-market components for their machines and coordinate secretly via p2p, creating and sharing illegal software and data.

Definitely could make for some good graphic novels and short stories. I'd like to see concept art and mock propaganda posters or things like that too. Flesh out the idea."

Favorite underrated albums? I don't really think this one gets enough attention.

So lets have some interesting short story based pieces.

<~10min

Not just cyb, anything interesting welcome!

Can we get a 2/4/8/16bit art post going!

OC if you have any - I think i might be alone in this... (all images made on Atari ST with NeoChrome Master).


Graphics and images that were hot at the time... demo scene graphics and revolutionary use of graphics.
Can also talk about the development of graphics tech - games included as they were/are a huge part of computer graphics.

Post some drawings from your sketchbook lainons.

I drew Lain, now you draw Lain.
