Start With A Completely Ordinary, Even Boring Photograph Of A Full Moon Reflecting Over A Still Lake. Corrupt It Until It No Art

Start with a completely ordinary, even boring photograph of a full moon reflecting over a still lake. Corrupt it until it no longer resembles its original subject at all, but still somehow feels like it’s haunted by what it used to be. Push the file through at least four different deliberate stages of destruction (e.g. heavy JPEG decay → databend in Audacity → pixel sorting by luminance → extreme RGB channel displacement and offset). Let compression artifacts bloom into impossible colors. Allow entire sections to liquefy and drip downward. Make the metadata scream. The final image should feel like a memory that’s been compressed, encrypted, lost, recovered, and compressed again for twenty years.

"A historically accurate depiction of a Ghost Dance, focusing on the late 19th-century context, specifically around 1890-1891. The scene shows Lakota (Sioux) or Northern Paiute people (specify one or include elements of both, but avoid anachronisms) participating in the ceremony. Setting: A vast, open prairie or high desert landscape, under an expansive sky. The time of day could be dusk or night, with a prominent moon or stars, or a bright, clear day. Avoid overtly spiritual or ethereal elements like floating spirits unless explicitly requested for a later, more symbolic iteration. The focus should be on the earthly ceremony. Participants: A circle of men, women, and children, hand-in-hand, moving in a slow, rhythmic shuffle or circular motion. Their faces show a mixture of devotion, hope, and determination. Some may have expressions of trance or deep concentration. Attire: Ghost Dance Shirts/Dresses: Emphasize the unique Ghost Dance shirts and dresses, which were typically made of muslin or canvas. These garments should feature painted designs such as stars, crescents, birds (especially eagles or crows), buffalo, human figures, or crosses. The designs should appear hand-painted, not mass-produced. Hair and Adornments: Participants should have braided hair or wear it long. Some may wear feathers (e.g., eagle or hawk feathers) in their hair. Minimal traditional adornments, as the focus was often on the Ghost Dance shirt itself. Avoid overly elaborate or Hollywood-esque depictions of war bonnets unless relevant to a specific individual and context. Footwear: Moccasins or bare feet. Action/Atmosphere: The dancers are moving in a counter-clockwise circle, with a central figure or a small group often leading. The overall mood is one of earnest prayer and communal spiritual effort. The dance should convey a sense of hope for renewal and the return of the old ways, rather than aggression or despair. There might be a central pole or small fire as a focal point, around which the dance takes place. Avoid any signs of direct conflict or violence; the Ghost Dance itself was a non-violent spiritual movement. Specific Considerations for Accuracy: Wovoka's Influence: The teachings of Wovoka (the Northern Paiute prophet) emphasized peace, hard work, and the return of the buffalo and deceased ancestors. The scene should subtly reflect this hopeful, redemptive spirit. Regional Variations: If focusing on Lakota, consider their specific interpretations, which sometimes included more imagery related to their warrior traditions on the shirts, but still within the peaceful framework of the dance. Respectful Portrayal: Ensure the depiction is respectful and avoids any stereotypical or caricatured representations of Indigenous people. Focus on their human dignity and spiritual sincerity.

Image Brief — “Britian. A Chocolate State of Mind.” (Landscape / Conference Hall) Visual Concept: A photographic, data-style image capturing the absurdity of corporate branding and political satire. The chocolate bar spelling “Britian” is the central focus. The scene is staged in a conference hall, emphasizing the formal-but-absurd atmosphere of a high-profile political event. Core Elements: • Chocolate bar front and center, wrapper crumpled, spelling clearly visible. • Backdrop / environment: realistic conference hall — lectern in the frame, faint rows of seating or stage elements, subtle signs of a political event. No office props. • Palette: predominantly blue tones (lighting, hall décor, banners), with small Tory-signifier accents (navy, subtle red) to hint at political context. • Orientation: landscape (wide) — must match the style and aspect ratio of other blog images. • Lighting / style: naturalistic photography; soft, realistic shadows; slightly moody, surreal undertone; no cartoonish or illustrative effects. • Mood / atmosphere: dry, ironic, subtly surreal — visually echoing Tom Kite’s sardonic, satirical voice. Typography (optional): Small text on wrapper: “Have a break from reality” in clean, bold type, integrated naturally into the photographic scene. Use / Context: • Featured image for blog post “Britian. A Chocolate State of Mind.” • Must work as both thumbnail and full-size blog header. • Maintain photographic, slightly surreal style consistent with other blog imagery Inspiration is Hannah Hoch, Jean-Michel Basquiat, John Stezaker

Golden Age Storybook Illustration Style, Rich Watercolor and Ink, Detailed Textures. A narrative scene capturing the tense moment of realization outside a rugged, dark cave entrance hidden among dry rocks and gnarled roots. The Fox and the Evidence: In the bright, sunlit foreground, a clever, reddish-orange fox sits alertly on its haunches, a safe distance from the cave mouth. Its head is tilted, looking intently at the dusty ground. The dirt path leading directly into the dark cave is a chaotic, heavily trampled mess of hundreds of distinct footprints—deer hooves, rabbit paws, badger claws—all pointing inward. Crucially, the dusty ground leading away from the cave is completely smooth and untouched by return tracks. The Lion and the Den: The cave entrance is a gaping maw of deep shadow. Deep within the darkness, only the faint, glowing yellow eyes and the vague, gaunt outline of the old lion lying in wait are visible, watching the fox intently. The contrast between the warm sunlight outside and the cold darkness inside is sharp.
Got it. You'd like the full prompt again, including the updated detail about miners on the banks, ready for ArtStyles.com. Here it is: Revised Prompt for ArtStyles.com: "A bustling scene of 19th-century gold miners during the California Gold Rush. Several determined miners are panning for gold in a shallow, rocky stream in the Sierra Nevada mountains, their rugged, worn clothing and wide-brimmed hats indicating their toil. Along the banks of the stream, other miners are actively digging into the earth with shovels and picks, creating small piles of dirt and using sluice boxes to separate gold. Sunlight filters through tall pine trees, casting dappled light on the scene, illuminating the clear water and the industrious activity of the miners. The background showcases a rugged, forested landscape with distant hills.""sepia tone vintage photograph, grainy, aged look"

"A cheerful and fantastical figure with a large, glowing jack-o'-lantern for a head. The pumpkin's face is carved with a distinctly happy, friendly, wide-mouthed smile and joyful eyes. Instead of traditional jagged cuts, the facial features (eyes, nose, mouth) are intricately carved with elegant, swirling, vine-like patterns, giving it a whimsical and artistic look. The pumpkin head emits a warm, inviting orange glow from within. Dramatically bursting and cascading out of the very top of the pumpkin's head is an overflowing abundance of vibrant, colorful Halloween candy. This candy explosion includes individually wrapped chocolates, lollipops, jelly beans, candy corn, and various brightly colored sweets, all tumbling outwards in a joyous, sugary fountain. The figure itself has a rustic, scarecrow-like body, perhaps dressed in tattered but festive autumn-colored clothing (e.g., burlap, plaid, or warm browns and oranges), standing in an autumnal setting. The background could feature a gently lit pumpkin patch, fallen autumn leaves, or a soft, blurred evening sky. The lighting is warm and enchanting, highlighting the pumpkin's glow and the glossy sheen of the candy. The overall mood is one of festive joy, playful magic, and autumnal abundance. stylized realism, intricate detail, dynamic composition, warm dramatic lighting, focus on textures (pumpkin, candy), fantasy elements"

Luminous Storybook Illustration Style, Rich Color Saturation, Magical Realism. A dramatic, painterly scene capturing the precise moment of tragic error on an old, mossy stone bridge spanning a calm river at sunset. The Reality (The Dog on the Bridge): A scruffy, hungry-looking terrier stands frozen mid-snarl on the edge of the bridge, looking downward. Its mouth is wide open in an aggressive bark. Suspended in mid-air, just inches below its open jaws, a real, decent-sized meaty bone is falling toward the water. The dog’s expression is a mix of greed and sudden confusion. The Illusion (The Reflection): The surface of the river below is glassy and still, acting like a perfect, deceptive mirror. The reflection shows the same dog, but the reflected bone in its mouth appears impossibly huge, glistening, and juicier than the real one. The reflection is almost hypnotically bright, brighter than the reality above the water. The warm golden light of the setting sun makes the water shimmer invitingly.
A breathtaking and surreal scene of vibrant Aspen trees in full autumn splendor, encased within a massive, crystal-clear, life-size glass bubble, reminiscent of a hyperrealistic snow globe. The glass bubble is perfectly spherical and transparent, allowing an unobstructed view into its contained world. Inside the bubble, a fierce autumn wind is whipping through the Aspen trees, which are ablaze with brilliant golden, yellow, and orange leaves. Countless individual leaves are detached from the branches and are swirling dynamically in a vibrant vortex around the tree trunks, creating a beautiful, chaotic dance. Some leaves cling to the ground, while others are caught in mid-air, a riot of color against the pale, smooth bark of the Aspens. The ground inside the bubble is covered in a thick carpet of fallen, colorful leaves. The exterior of the glass bubble reflects and subtly distorts a serene, autumnal mountain landscape or clear blue sky, emphasizing its pristine, contained nature. The lighting is bright and ethereal, perfectly illuminating the vibrant leaf colors and the transparency of the glass, highlighting the dynamic movement within. The overall mood is one of encapsulated beauty, powerful natural forces held in exquisite suspension, and serene wonder."
