→ Variant Generation
This afternoon's exploration focuses on algorithmically generated images. Replicating the techniques behind the NFT craze (which has long passed) is not as difficult as it may seem. I discovered that using no-code tools such as Chat GPT, DALL·E 3, and Figma makes it a breeze to create and export algorithmically generated art. Figma plugins simplify the process, allowing you to manipulate weights and create artificial scarcity of certain attributes in your population. A small amount of source material allows you to generate a vast amount of variation. I found that dividing the process into batches and incorporating human-in-the-loop reviews made things even smoother.
