I have been more active online lately as "Cluny" / cluny.eth, which is my nom de plume in the (Crypto)Voxels metaverse. I have been posting metaverse related content here on Hive as @cluny.the.rat

The madness blooms and we breathe in the heady perfume. Previously on the Fleshmelt Project Part 1: Fleshy Red Mother & the PhotoBash Part 2: Disparate influences Part 3: Mawr Red Flesh, Demonwebs

I have not personally been locked down because of COVID-19's rapid spread throughout the United States. I live in Utah County, Utah, which has only advised people to stay at home. Schools were closed,

We swim deeper and discover some tasty twisty mutations in the depths of my imagination. Previously on the Fleshmelt Project Part 1: Fleshy Red Mother & the PhotoBash Part 2: Disparate influences Part

Buckle up Hive we about to go to the strange dimension. I'm not gonna say this will make sense if you read the previous parts first, but it will make more sense LOL Previously on the Fleshmelt Project

After creating the fleshy red mother and using her in six generations of AI style transfer over a photobash collage (see Fleshmelt Project pt.1), I wanted to bring some of my older art and photography

Since January of this year I have been working on a series of interconnected paintings all descended from a single large fleshy red mother. This project is getting pretty crazy, with tentacles reaching

Bringing my series of deep sea creature / AI style transfer & painting experiments to a close, I present the Hairy Anglerfish. I spent a ton of time on this one capturing the variation in texture and

Most of my recent deep sea creature studies have been relatively faithful to life. Not so with these :) I shared a dragonfish in my first post in this series. It was just the head and a small curve of

Continuing on with my deep sea creature art kick, I tackled some cephalopods - the dumbo-eared vampire squid & a juvenile long arm octopus. Catch up with this art project and the AI style transfer

Continuing my AI / Painting art collaboration (read my last post for process), I moved on to some different reference images for everyone's favorite cute and cuddly creature - the deep-sea dragonfish :)

I am working on a series of pAIntings of deep sea creatures. I am trying a different way to use AI style transfer (deepdreamgenerator.com DeepStyle v2) here - each of these started as a quick painting

I grew this alien creature to wear into battle as a helmet. It smarts a little when the pincers go up my nose but once the brainmesh is complete it gives me the reaction time of sonic the hedgehog. Process

Sort of a how-to post, not sure if there is a DIY community that might be more appropriate? Anyway if you want to grow your own alien you can try to follow along with these steps. I gotta warn you though,

The interlocking temple is one of the great wonders of the multiverse, constructed almost 3 million years ago by the clockwork owls and still humming along today. Although the clockwork owls have long

As much as you might want to fung these rare close ups of alien reproductive organs, they are in fact NON fungible. Each is a product of my remarkable expeditions throughout the multiverse, from whence

This is a work in progress but I felt like sharing a bit of the process. The above is pen and ink (G2 .5mm pen) drawing on top of a paper print out of this image: The image above was created by applying

I got a DJI Mavic Mini drone for my birthday in July 2020. I have flown it in a lot of amazing places here in Utah, but I haven't taken the time to edit any of my footage together. Here are a few fun short

Happy New Year y'all :) Probably safe to say this is the year we are all ready to put to bed. We had a really fun last day of 2020, slip sliding far out onto the ice of frozen Lake Utah. We also found

I have been having fun the last few days painting (digitally speaking) on top of my alien art. I always see crazy aliens and monsters and faces when I mirror the shapes generated by the AI on top of my
