tbc i don’t mean generate an image that looks like a drawing, i mean emulate the “ideation & refinement through sketching/drawing” process. like this seems like the obvious move to desloppify ai visuals when you see what reasoning etc gives you in text stuff
i was wondering where at the start of his project is the thread which later unravels into that and i think it's a certain logical conservatism. wld go as far as to say that comes from Sellars and the "logical irreducibility of the manifest to the scientific image".
the big gamechanger of the decade is that "is it ok if one ball is larger than the other" is now mediated at a more intricate social level than mere search
@kitsumute@LetovCCRU if you'll allow the presumptuous plug, here's something of mine for which said Sellars essay plays a fundamental role (and in which i think i'm sketching an ontological buttressing-picture that Sacillotto certainly articulates with much more precision)

@kitsumute@LetovCCRU haven't read it yet (plan to) but i wonder if that mention of "recipes" near Sellars implies Sacillotto draws from his "Soul as Craftsman", which i do believe is key for what is summed as philosophy in these shots.
@kitsumute trying hard to imagine what it's like to not consider infants' self-determining behaviours as a fundamental springboard for the normative revision a longue-durée project like universal emancipation requires. or what it's like to forget it's around 2yo we learn how to employ 'No.'
trying to come up with a new one-person-comics-anthology is both hard & fun. i just realized comics allow me (in retrospect, have allowed too) to deal w subjects & forms i wldn't otherwise via other media.
today i felt both that this explains why i've never dropped comics as a one-time interest and that it signals i shld keep at this even if only for the sake of finding out new ways of thinking how to be "difficult".
