Gosh it's hard not to enjoy this, even as an artist who is uneasy about the whole GenAI image thing. Having said that, I'm temporarily comforted at how ugly a lot of the abstract paintings are once animated.
Okawari•3d ago
I felt pretty much the exact opposite. I was immediately drawn to some of the abstract art while not particularilly enjoying the traditional paintings. I found them too uncanny and "lifeless".

That being said, if I had a screen that could reasonably pass as a framed image on the wall, I would love a version of this where I could have a well known picture on it that would primarilly be static but sometimes have subtle movements or shift about a bit as a fun novelty to trip over guests. The typical, blinking, repositioning. Like hoppers nighthawks, but the clerk serving a drink or two. The couple lighting a sigarette or someone walking past the diner.

This is really cool. Reminds me of the paintings in harry potter.

What's the point?

Without any context, these transformations are pure spectacle. And it's bad when you take something that had meaning and turn it into a spectacle.

This site could be a commentary on the frivolity of AI, a takedown of "great" art, an attempt to make art more approachable, or a tech demo. But without knowing which, it's an impressive, forgettable spectacle.

littlekey•3h ago
Strange that you need the website (author) to tell you how to interpret it. It's like art itself, you're allowed to come up with your own interpretations.
yesfitz•2h ago
You must have misunderstood my comment as something other than interpretation.

>it's an impressive, forgettable spectacle.

I provided a handful of other possibilities, but in the absence of any statement from the creator, my interpretation stands.
