Challenge: I See Dead People (Extended Editing*)
Date: May 6, 2018
Date Uploaded: May 6, 2018

 the starter image was my face behind a block of glass, using an outtake from this entry a few years ago



i then just used Deep Dream Generator, an online photo editor that grew out of the artificial/computer vision field,

Deep Dream Generator

and using on of their "seed" textures until i got the result i wanted.

then i blended back the original image to get my eye back, and did a few other adjustments to strcuture, contrast, etc.

its a really fun process, and you can waste hours just experimenting

Very imaginative. It̢۪s obvious you are quite talented.

Imaginative image. The emerging face is convincingly engulfed in this stuff. A subjective quibble is that the squarish inner frame seems limiting. What I like is that the viewer is required to make an effort to discover what's going on.
