Im really leaning into the whimsical theme in my serendipitous pictures. I really enjoy the fantasy tropes that keep appearing in my AI generated images such as mushrooms and sparkles and an oversaturation of the environment. There are a lot of directions I could take this with a glitch like a simulation or a dream or the juxtaposition between the technological glitch and the vibrant fantasy setting can tell a story in itself. However, I think my goal right now is to try to emulate an RPG game being unplugged, so all the NPCs and CPUs and world coding is breaking down (thus the glitches). I guess my inspiration comes from the end scene in wreck-it-ralph with the virus bugs, which i don't know if that means anything but the idea in the movie is that when an arcade game gets a virus or an unrepairable bug it will be unplugged, and removed from the arcade. I'm thinking of a similar image to that except that I'm imagining it as like a computer multiplayer game. I think I might struggle a little with continuing to make my images mostly serendipitous now that I have a concept that I hope to achieve, so I'm hoping this idea will evolve somewhat as I continue to play around with glitches and my AI prompts. I think one thing that will help with that is layering AI influence like having using a word generator and then putting those words in chat gpt to give me a more cohesive prompt and then putting that into my image generator. The glitch part I find really fun, especially the GIF and I hope to use those for a lot of my images
