π₯@topazlabs launch ASTRA 2 π₯ and I was lucky enough to beta test it. I was interested in testing with very low res footage and used 832x464 video outputs from Midjourney. The results are impressive!
Testing @topazlabs Starlight Precise 2.5 on one of my beloved πΏοΈπ€characters and it's pretty good! I started from 1280x720 Seedance 2.0 output using @dreamina_ai and upscaled it with Topaz Labs Starlight Precise 2.5 .

An experiment using @LumaLabsAI Creative Agents. Luma Agents advance multiple directions simultaneously, and sometimes it gets confusing, because the process is fast! I started from some frames I generated in @midjourney
This is nowhere perfect
I am absolutely thrilled to have received the Silver Alchemy Award, 2nd place, at the [esc] Awards 2026. ALCHEMIST AWARD: this Creator is an experimentalist, explorer, mad scientist, conceptualist and likely a non conformist.
Thank you. ππ»π€

Celebrating my latest CPP collab with @invideoOfficial with some underwater mutations using @Kling_ai 3.0 Omni + @BytedanceTalk Video Upscaler. I used three frames that I generated with @midjourney 6.1, some (not all) upscaled with @Magnific_AI + prompt.

First quick test with @Kling_ai 3.0 with unusual subjects and itβs impressive. Iβve only scratched the surface here, but surely Iβll dive deeper because this update is incredibly powerful.
