Is This Real? - AI Generated Art Video
Hello friends! I hope you're doing as good as possible. :)
I would very much appreciate your feedback if you have a few moments.
I just uploaded a new spoken word poetry song thingy with an AI generated music video to YouTube and it's the first time I've really "tried" to sing in a serious sort of manner.
It's around 7 minutes long, though if you just watch a couple minutes in the beginning of the vid and give me some feedback that would be much appreciated!
Also, I should mention that I've never taken any classes or anything like that... I've just been practicing for the most part when I'm out in nature or sometimes in my room or elsewhere when I think no one is listening, lol...
I have watched quite a few tutorial types of videos on YouTube trying to learn how to sing, though unfortunately I feel like I've made much more progress just by practicing.
It's okay if you think it's terrible and you tell me that you think it's terrible as I would genuinely like to know what people think!
Thank you very much if you listen and leave some feedback! I love you and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day. <3
PS... I will put a link to the video below and will also put the lyrics below for anyone who wants to read the poem.
Is This Real?
Gonna go explore.
Maybe find something never found before.
I'm just some regular dude.
How's all this happening to me?
Went searching for truth.
Now I can hardly believe.
What a beautiful route to choose.
Where I thought I'd never be.
Following these clues.
Unraveling hidden mysteries.
What a surprise that can no longer be denied.
It's difficult to even try to comprehend.
What I've seen with my eyes.
In a place undiscovered is where I went.
To better understand my mind.
Heart led the way to the evidence.
In time with the divine.
Almost as if angel sent.
How to define?
How to describe?
The process of becoming more aligned and alive?
I realize I can't prove these holographic dreams.
But, they seem so compelling.
The truth beyond my reach.
Yet, I keep dwelling.
Is this real...?
Or is this a dream?
Why do I feel...?
What does it mean?
Keep finding more and more pieces to the puzzle.
Sometimes it's subtle.
Sometimes it's a struggle.
But, I love though.
I love so much, so...
So befuddled.
Juggling these reflections in a puddle.
While shuffling troubles smuggled.
And hustling double.
Among myself huddled.
I hug my demons close.
They probably need a hug the most.
Perception is powerful.
Paying attention to the pebbles...
Something about the details and something about the Devil.
And well... It depends on the way you look at it.
If there's so much more, why settle?
There's still so far to go, please don't quit.
Be a rebel.
You are a gift.
Time to take things to another level.
Moving swift.
With a soul like flowers petals, gems and precious metals.
I'll be okay, I love myself enough these days.
If I was still depressed I might have killed myself.
Coulda been the straw that broke my back.
Coulda jumped off a cliff till everything went black.
Thankfully I'm no longer so heart broken like that.
Found a love inside myself that I never need to ask.
I just know... I know I'm there for myself now underneath the mask.
Gonna go explore.
Maybe find something never found before.
Is this real...?
Or is this a dream?
Why do I feel...?
What does it mean?
Hi @apolymask ,I watched the video, looked and listened, when the shapes appear on the neck I felt something strange, then I watched and felt involved in a different world created by you, the colors make me change my mood, I went from sadness to admiration , the pleasant to the sadness, conclusion, I looked at it in parts and even so I let myself go
Thanks for checking it out lupega! Happy to hear the mood changed to a more positive one! That's some great feedback and I think it does similar for me! It gives me a good positive feeling. Cheers! <3 :)
Wow, great effort! Takes guts to put yourself out there like that. Interesting visuals, too. At times your vocal delivery reminded me a bit of Scott Walker. Have you heard of him? I'm listening to his album 'Bisch Bosch' at the moment. Epizootics is a song from it that will show you what I mean. I'm fascinated with these Machine Learning text-to-image models we have these days. The potential is incredible. Thank you for sharing and keep going! Have a good one
Thanks!! And yeah, I've been writing poetry for many years but was too scared to vocalize it... I started doing spoken word a few years ago but was still too scared to try to sing, I think after a near death experience a bit over a year ago it really opened my eyes and helped with the fear a lot!
No, I haven't heard of Scott Walker, I'll listen real quick...
Whoa, I think I see what you mean.
Very interesting how similar it sounds in certain ways, also some very powerful and profound lyrics as well! Thanks for sharing. :)
Glad you thought the visuals were interesting! I agree in regard to the machine learning stuff, it's super fascinating on many levels and is evolving so rapidly! I wonder what it will be like in a few years? Or 10-20 years? Crazy to think about!
You're welcome for sharing, thank you as well for leaving some feedback and encouraging words! I highly appreciate it! Cheers! :) <3
All good man!
Yeah, things are accelerating rapidly in the machine learning space. It's only going to get more interesting as time goes on.
10-20 years time or less I wouldn't be surprised to see it expand to video. Imagine that...
Scott Walker was a serendipitous discovery for me. Late night TV, music video program we have here down in Australia: "Rage"
2-3AM and that track starts playing. Not for everyone sure, but I was transfixed. Totally unique. The lyrics, agreed! That impression has stayed with me ever since. He's an artist that's definitely not afraid to forge his own path.
Everything you do is awesome. That is the truth :)
Aw. That was really nice to hear! Thank you so much! Means a lot to me. :) Much love my friend! <3 Also I think what you share is awesome too and I'm grateful I got to meet you on here!!
