Description

"Wherefore each of you, when their turn comes, must go down to the general underground abode, and get the habit of seeing in the dark." Plato, The Republic "Memento Mori" by Beets is the sixth and final project in the immersive HERE & NOW series on the Tezos blockchain, pushing the boundaries of long-form generative AI art. This collection draws inspiration from Plato’s allegory of the cave, challenging participants to ponder the themes of perception, reality, and mortality. In this immersive experience, users' interactions are symbolized through the metaphorical inflation of balloons, each representing a surge of optimism. These interactions directly influence the distinct characteristics of the resulting personal artwork. Utilizing the robust EmProps OpenStudio API, artworks are dynamically generated in real-time as participants navigate through their journey. In Here & NOW Edition 2, there was a plaque on the wall that read: “This is my manifesto to you. With every edition, I will push what experiences can be on the blockchain. I aim to create emotional connections to moments in time, so that every time you look at that NFT in your wallet, it stirs a memory, a piece of nostalgia just for you.” Memento Mori is a final testament to this promise. --- Model: Juggernaut XL v8 by KandooAI LoRAs (sourced from civitai): Direct Preference Optimization by enfugue AnalogRedmondV2 by artificialguybr Diffusion64 by name64 Bad Quality Lora by I_dont_want_karma SDXL Film Photography Style by lsed22998 Real Photo Postcard by RaynaPolsky PlatosCave by quitters
