1st Session 1.6.2 Assignment: Introducing myself with a short digital story
1.6.4. Creative Assignment:
For this introductory collage experiment I decided to use the deep dream generator. This website allows you to combine images using “a convolutional neural network to find and enhance patterns in images via algorithmic pareidolia, thus creating a dream-like hallucinogenic appearance in the deliberately over-processed images”. This collage is really a combination of things that I miss that I used to be able to do before the pandemic started. I first combined an image of me at a restaurant with irish lace. The image of me is from a couple years ago, I haven’t been to restaurants much because of the pandemic. I sometimes visit my family in Ireland but have not been back recently because of travel restrictions. The Irish lace is meant to represent this as well as the second image of the oceanside in Ireland near where my grandparents live. I combined these with the blending brush in procreate and then put them back through the deep dream generator with a photograph I took of some greenery in Ireland.

I think I like this version better, this is before the final deep dream generator edit.
