“In Other News”

In a first for us and ZHAO, alike, we have created a full length music video using only Stable Diffusion prompts on the Deforum Google Colab Notebook.

In order to string together a narrative, we devised a script that outlined the video frame by frame and enabled us to match custom prompts to where a concept might arise within the song’s lyrics.

We agreed to direct the AI in a loose way, in an attempt to free it to show us what it wanted to show – a Rorschach test of sorts.
