A huge project started in the earlier days of AI Art availability.

Links to AI visual experiments as triggered by my gestalt real-time reviews since 2008.

All seemingly inspired by WIMSATT’S INTENTIONAL FALLACY / DES LEWIS GESTALT REAL-TIME REVIEWS / NEMONYMOUS / PARTHENOGENETIC LATE-LABELLING / THE SYNCHRONISED SHARDS OF RANDOM TRUTH AND FICTION (WEIRDMONGER)

EDIT (February 2024)— It was exactly a year ago I started experimenting with AI Visual Art, little knowing what I was entering. There was indeed much stimulation in triggering shifting collages from my gestalt real-time reviews of individual authors. But that was then, and now is now. From today, I no longer have this facility.

The Ammonite Violin

I have finished my gestalt real-time review of ‘The Ammonite Violin & Others’ by Caitlín R. Kiernan as recently published by PS Publishing.

The Ammonite Violin & Others – Caitlín R. Kiernan

A quote from my review of its last story:
“This seems to be a coda to this life-changing book, to its “improbable symphony.” In many ways, I keep my wig’s powder dry, but I will say I thank whatever forces allow such books to be written and that I read it before I passed on to that ‘covered bridge’. These stories first published in 2005-2007.”
