Assuming you’re talking about this: https://research.google/blog/inceptionism-going-deeper-into-neural-networks/?m=1 https://research.google/blog/inceptionism-going-deeper-into-... Here’s an example I generated in 2015: https://www.wandereurope.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/dreamscoped_bean2.jpeg https://www.wandereurope.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/drea...

Eh a lot of that ‘deep dreamy’ stuff ends up looking so same-same - I don’t need to look at endless various of ‘dog faces and insect body parts and glittering gemstones’ you know? I want to see actual weird stuff, bizarre genometry, a sense of space that’s mind-bending. Maximalism is not the be all end all of trippy visuals.

  I believe this music video (Röyksopp - Impossible) was created with something along those lines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljnxZypkjn0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljnxZypkjn0

  Check this one out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGuBpKqtHdY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGuBpKqtHdY And this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd3ZQOzyquo&t=385s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd3ZQOzyquo&t=385s The AI generated ones are getting really good nowadays.

    Deforum stuff is cool, but also a bit of a flash in the pan because of the disconnected nature of the generated frames. Pure video generation is getting better, but like all generative AI it lacks imagination and cannot really create new things, making it less qualified for truly mindblowing psychedelic visuals in its current state.

    It would be cool to have something like the first one, except generated in realtime and you get to "steer". If it works by zooming in slightly each frame and then asking the AI to refine the image to better match the prompt or whatever, we could steer through the world by changing the centre of zoom. If generating frames is fast enough it could feel like flying a spaceship through a psychedelic environment.

  I understand your point. There's "trippy visuals" and then there's "that's what I saw when the DMT hit" - My comment was really leaning towards the latter.
