The Making of an Article
A partial journal on how I craft a piece from my mess of thoughts.
I wanted to give a window into the process of how I work. I really should just do a video one day, but that’s not my area really. Maybe someone can help me with it at some point.
So for now, I want to journal my process of creating works with the aid of generative AI tools like ChatGPT. Well, it’s a partial journal, with edits. It goes through the first steps from initial idea, through first limited draft.
This particular process started with an offhand thought I had. I posted it on bsky and then cleaned it up and posted a refined version on Twitter. I liked it, and it was in response to a thread on SORA and how “bad” it is.
In art, skill is important, of course. Yet, what makes art “good” is perhaps 90% aesthetic matching and 10% skill. Unfortunately far too many think that it’s the other way around. And so because the work does not match their aesthetic, they deem it bad art.
I wanted to expand on this idea. So I did. So I ideated for a few minutes.
