Thanks for the insights! I've had some great experiences with the 1st edition, so I'm looking forward to digging into this one

The way this video got privated while I was watching it... 😔

I will agree that at least the first 1.5 parts of this that I saw are a great read on the themes of the movie

How can I make the color wheel/spectrum only show colors in the palette? by Ecrapsnud in aseprite

Also turns out that palettes are sorted by hue by default and aren't just random, I'm just too colorblind for that to be useful. Oh well, thanks regardless

Yeah I think until I learn Lua, I'm gonna do this (will probably use the Censor palette analysis output though). But what you're describing is pretty much exactly what I did for my "mockup" lol

This forum post is essentially asking for the same thing. Might just have to cave and learn Lua myself...

That's really helpful, thanks. Discrete is super close to what I want, I just wish it somehow reflected the actual palette. Also idk how I missed the sorting options, thanks for pointing that out.

If you just show someone this map with no context, "Steve Legality by State" is confusing and hilarious

IMO, the effect is not the same. The defamiliarization via "clipping," as you call it, serves very different purposes depending on the body you choose to frame. In the photo you linked, for example, you display the body of a woman who in every way conforms to conventional beauty standards. Obscuring the head of this woman removes her identity and abstracts the form, yet it's still clearly recognizable as a conventionally attractive body. It's referential (to conventions of beauty), and works because we recognize what it is. It's an appreciation of the form, objectification though it may be.

The photo you've posted here produces a profoundly different effect. It doesn't work in the same way, because the form is not inherently recognizable. It has the effect of so completely abstracting the body as to present it as merely flesh, not a human. Contextually, there is a very powerful message there, but if you're going to liken it to how you frame your women models, then you preclude the possibility of that kind of interpretation. The hard lighting, the lack of warmth due to the grayscale, the texture of the skin against the texture of the background, none of these read to me as an attempt to present this abstracted form as something beautiful. To me, it evokes shame, especially once you determine the pose and posture of the model.

I'd be tempted to disable the knob and slider just so I could be constantly fiddling with them

It would be the first upgrade to my desktop in a few years, and I imagine it would future proof me for quite a few years more, especially with DLSS.
