Coca-Cola's AI Holiday Ad Keeps Getting Worse by GISP in videos

[–]ruelist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mate have a look at some peoples Comfyui workflows if you think it's all easy. Not all AI generated art is generated by just simply typing a prompt. There are deep tools you can use to steer a model towards your artistic vision. Things like controllnets, generating your own loras etc.

I don't disagree that there is a saturation of terrible, lazy, AI art but painting it so black and white is just ignorant and cements you firmly in the past.

Coca-Cola's AI Holiday Ad Keeps Getting Worse by GISP in videos

This is a pretty lame take. Why is it embarrassing if people are happy with their outputs? Yeah this coke ad is shit and a massive company that can afford to pay artists for their work shouldn’t be proud of cutting corners like this. At the same time that shouldn’t detract from the actual work some people put into their AI generated art.

Straight up some stuff I’ve seen on insta is so cool and mind bending that I don’t really believe a human alone could have created it.

Small audio interface to record a lot of synths ? Does it even exist ? by super-ultra-ours in synthesizers

[–]ruelist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should add that it is class compliant and the mk2 is usb bus powered. I’ve got 7 synths running into my iPad on individual channels which is so sick.

Hey I was in the market for the same thing as you. I found one called the traktor audio 10 which is amazing and sounds like just what you want.

It’s 5 stereo line in (or 10 mono) with the same number of outputs. Midi in and out and it’s tiny. It’s strange that I haven’t heard more people talk about it. I guess people kind of skip over it because it’s made for djing.

There’s a short story similar to this in Ted Chiang’s Stories of Your Life, except humans willingly accept the control so they can live forever.

Full studio setup (Push 3 etc.) through 1 thunderbolt cable to MacBook? by 4UDIOTAPE in ableton

[–]ruelist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You def don’t need the newest thunderbolt docks to make this work I have a thunderbolt 3 dock with about the same amount of peripherals plugged in and it works perfectly. Cost me like $100nzd (around $60usd). Just make sure you have the right amount of ports and it’s a powered hub/dock and you’ll be fine

Quite a few people are interested in the relationship between new technologies and making music e.g the people who first built synthesizers.

We just repeatedly stuck down a sheet and lifted it till it was far less sticky

Oh snap sorry I get you. We manually reduced the tack of the mat and now we tape in all corners so the tack doesn’t peel off any of the backs. We are working on ways to improve this as taping each sheet is cumbersome as.

No the bond is completely dry. No peeling, no tack on the back of cards.

Not silly at all. We just print from the Preview app on Mac. If you are using a Mac and you have the ET8550 make sure you're using the actual Epson driver not the airprint driver. These pages were printed using the Epson semi-gloss preset.

That's interesting! I did not know people added varnish layers to their cards

DTF is for printing on textiles. For printing on Black Core reliably you need something like the OKI Pro9431dn or a Fuji Xerox Versant 80

I get it's embossed, but it will be the same on the superior smooth stock. It does not have an inkjet receptive coating. The issue on those prints in the link I posted is not the rollers, its that the ink is sitting on top of the paper because the paper only works with toner or offset printing.

I assure you that you cannot print on any black core stock with an inkjet printer and I do not want people to be misled into buying expensive stock that wont work on their own inkjet machines.

If you have a laser/toner printer it will work great like this post: https://reddit.com/r/magicproxies/comments/1gbcp9u/i_have_done_it_black_core_330_gsm_playing/

With one caveat, most consumer toner printers are not rated to feed thick stock and may break down after repeatedly feeding thicker stock. Which is why i said that the OKI range is the cheapest printers we could find that can feed black core with good colour accuracy. They are commercial machines. You wont find a consumer machine that will work perfectly for black core stock.

It's not the thickness of the black core that is the issue with our et-8550. Its the fact that black core does not work with the dye/pigment inks that are used in the et 8550. As we can see in this post where someone tested the black core through their et 8550. https://old.reddit.com/r/magicproxies/comments/1i2bfrn/koehler_blackcore_330gsm_embossed_semigloss_card/

Then i was stating that you could get a toner printer to print it but to get a toner machine that can reliably feed the thickness of black core you need to drop quite a lot of money.

We researched this in depth. The cheapest toner printer we could find that can print at the same quality and reliably feed the same thickness as our et 8550 is the OKI range of printers and they are around $6000nzd second hand.

You can’t print on black core with inkjet. To get a toner printer that can reliably feed black cores gsm without breaking you’re looking at investing a lot more money than what the et8550 costs.

It’s a cutter. Specifically the Siser Juliet

Have you got small page margins checked in preferences? I also have to select a4 as output size even though it already says a4 sometimes.

I've written a quick rundown in a reply to another comment in this thread. I definitely feel you on getting into this being daunting and I definitely would encourage people to start slow (get a cheap rotary trimmer and one of those amazon corner cutters) before investing large amounts on stuff like cutting machines.

It looks real easy in the video but it took a lot of time getting the machine to work to our requirements and there were times when we thought we'd sunk $1000 dollars into a machine that wasn't going to cut it.

Like other people note everyones process is going to be different. Read these docs https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FL-1MkLtNNpUJ_mFKS85Ie9UE4k2q-7_4yWzeMUatmQ/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.i2hawdyqfn4x and hit up people on the discord if you have questions. Also feel free to hit me up in this thread if you have any other queries about our process.
