MerzFiles #06: Index of Everything
“s/he who seeks shall find art.”
Let’s keep it short: it’s here, for you. Please read about it, explore it, do your art, dream your dreams, live your lives, go your way.
If you are a long-term reader of my blog, you are already the index. Because you and me, we become text and art.
Creative Artificial Intelligence. Index.
This is a collection of all AI/ML/DL creative models/approaches/applications I’ve covered, cover, and will cover here.
This collection includes visual, textual, and audio uses of AI for creative needs and is continuously updated.
On the Run
You may remember this horrible story of what may happen if you let two AI bots unsupervised. Spoiler: it can quickly escalate.
I made a short movie about it — featuring my-humble-self and two GPT-3-driven bots.
Watch it here.
In German as well.
The Art to Start
I’ve begun new series… You know me; I am a Serial Starter. But this one SHOULD be started: how to design Prompt for GPT-3.
It isn’t that easy because, so that AI understands you, you first have to understand AI.
Read my series “The Art to Start,” and you will recognize a lot about GPT-3.
- Introduction
- Tabula Rasa (what happens if you start without Prompt)
- The Settings Game (go crazy)
Please don’t stop the music.
Writing for Medium is a wonderful experience, full of unexpected turns like, you know
So, together with Art and Artificial Intelligence, I will continue to top in Music as well.
Till now, I’ve written about AI-generated music, but — my dear friends — the world is not only AI, and new topics will emerge, are in the pipeline and ongoing.
Parents out there (or better: “in there” because #StayAtHome)
What to do if your kid’s Kindergarten doesn’t let to bring your kid's Teddies etc. from home? (And I fully understand why, so I’m all with Kindergarten limitations during COVID-19 pandemics)
We had with my son (4 years old) an idea:
- Generate using StyleGAN2 a beautiful landscape — we used Artbreeder since it’s still more intuitive kids than Python.
- Make a photo of your Teddy/Dog walking in this sunny world
- Print it out and take with to Kindergarten
And it works. My kid was happy to take his friend along with him :)

What about a poem?
AI wrote a poem; AI spoke a poem; AI articulated a poem.
