Slop does not rule
(midwest.social)
196I drew on some wood a few weeks ago. Need to find some more wood scraps to try some more.
Beautiful
AGREED.
nothing triggers me more when I go on shitty youtube, and see a video for a videogame and they used AI to generate garbage when a literal in-game screenshot is free and 1 keystroke...
it's dishonest and I immediately assume the 'content slop creator' doesn't give a damn
Hell yeah. I've never done any visual art before but I just started trying last week, specifically as an anti-AI act. Just drawing what I see when I'm bored, and following a book I got.
"Shitty scribble" is a risky level of open-to-interpretation
Same. Instant upvote. Those matter!
I’m embracing gaucher and messier stuff in my graphic design work, because at a certain point it’s just my style and it’s not from a canva bot. Weird how like it took the slop-death of the internet to get some pride in my rougher edges
Kind of makes me think about how the rise of abstract art was a reaction to the invention of cameras and other scientific advancement. We’re arguably already getting cool art in reaction to slop (eg, all of !unix_surrealism@lemmy.sdf.org), but hopefully it will inspire* even more
* is inspiration even the right word when it’s rooted in disgust for slop? Oh well
Spite can be a fantastic source of inspiration, so yes.
And the internet responds with buckets of downvotes for low effort posts
