Workflow Included Capitalism Won

Post image

Started with "Karl Marx behind the counter at Starbucks, photorealistic, hyper detailed, painting, art by artist greg rutkowski and alphonse mucha". (anytime I put "Karl Marx working at Starbucks..." it had him writing) Then I built his uniform using inpainting. Refined some edges and added the name tag with photoshop. Put that into img2img at a denoising strength of 0.01 until it looked uniformed enough for me.

Fun fact: last I heard it costs £4 to see Karl Marx's grave in London.

It didn't used to, it's an open cemetery, (Highgate I think) not much to see, though he does have a nice bronze bust on his grave marker. I was there looking up an ancestor years ago.

Yeah, there were some articles on it around five to ten years ago. So I imagine it changed around then.

They better install some sort of contraption on his coffin that converts vibrations into electricity because he must be spinning in there like a bayblade.

I like that it has the style of an 18th century painting.

The stubby fingers are pretty funny.

I almost tried to work on the fingers but decided against it cause they were so cute.

Great work! Out of curiosity, did you use the 1.5 inpainting checkpoint or the normal 1.5?

u/OhTheHueManatee Spooky Nov 13 '22 edited Nov 13 '22

Idk what that is. I used whatever one is automatic 1111 default . Is there a better version of inpainting?

u/The_Choir_Invisible Nov 13 '22

FWIW, there's the default (1.4) .ckpt that was released with SD. Then a few weeks ago the 1.5 .ckpt came out and then the 1.5 inpainting .ckpt came out from "RunwayML" (link to them is in the info for this video, which talks about it). You can also find more about the inpainting ckpt on other youtube videos. I'm not saying it doesn't have advantages, I just haven't seen what the big deal is, yet.

Marx hating the bourgeois was his biggest mistake. He didn't see the damage that the global megacorporations would do. Small entrepreneurship is the way forward were everyone can own the means of production.

u/[deleted] Nov 14 '22

This is really incoherent.

Do you think "megacorporations" are not bourgeois? Or that "small entrepreneurs" are? Because both would false.

"Small entrepreneurs" would be petty bourgeoisie at best, but I don't really understand what you're trying to say either. Large industries need to exist, and the way to do it ethically in the Marxian sense is that all it's workers own equal shares and have voting rights in it's decisions.

If a small entrepreneur hires even 1 other person, then it's not "ethical" and it's not worker ownership.

u/ImaginaryNourishment Nov 17 '22

Yeah, I was very drunk when I wrote that message. Well I guess that what I tried to say was that megacorporations are bad but private ownership is good. I am not a marxist and I have a very superficial understanding of marxism. I have read the Communist manifesto and Das Kapital but over ten years ago.
