Going with some Dylan Thomas today. Thought the opening lines of “Do not go gentle into that good night” might be worth a go:

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

DALL-E generated 4 options again:

Do not go gentle into that good night – 1

Do not go gentle into that good night – 2

Do not go gentle into that good night – 3

Do not go gentle into that good night – 4

DiffusionBee threw up what looked like a Norse word cloud:

Do not go gentle into that good night

Unimpressed with this, I added a “by Banksy” style modifier to see if this created something more visually arresting. I guess it did. Messing about with styles (drawing, visual, pen, carving and etching, camera, color, emotions, style of an artist or community, CGI software, and CGI rendering) is where I may have to add more direction.

Banksy Style

So, I added a bunch of modifying styles. I then learned that DiffusionBee limits the number of text characters for the prompt. After removing a few, I ended up with this (Angry, Melancholic, Oil Paint, Dramatic, Surrealist):

Angry, Melancholic, Oil Paint, Dramatic, Surrealist

Again, Craiyon gets appropriately angsty. Will have to try something more placid tomorrow:
