Human Generated

Hi everyone! I am new here and wanted to share my latest finished work. :slight_smile:

It’s titled “Human Generated” and is a reference to grotesque AI images.

While I think this still image can stand on its own, this project really was about creating a weird animation in a faux stop-motion style. I’ve sculpted each pose individually and looped through the different poses via geometry nodes. You can see the result here:

This is hilarious and brilliant! How much acid did it take? (Just kidding.)

I love it. Especially the thing with AI and their strange rendition of human fingers. It feels like you made a visual representation of how it looks inside an AI “brain” when it generates stuff. No concept of beauty or actual thinking, just a mishmash of data that we humans give a thumbs up to if it gets it right or not. Google Chinese room and it will make sense.

Thank you very much!

Thanks! I love your interpretation. :slight_smile: The chinese room experiment was new to me. Very interesting and fitting.

Awesome work! I really like the result, can you share how did you setup the looping poses with geometry nodes?

Thanks!

Here’s the geonode setup. It’s picking an instance out of a collection based on the value of a wave texture with an animated phase offset. There’s also some random rotating and scaling going on each frame for extra imperfection.

The “things” collection contains a bunch of other collections that contain the sculpted meshes as well as manually modelled fingernails, eyelashes and/or sweat. I started with poses named 00, 50 and 90 and then added the inbetween instances/poses as necessary. Blender just puts the instances in alphabetical order so I didn’t care about the naming too much.

I hope this helps somehow and is understandable :smiley:
