Community piano
Saw and photographed this cute community piano on September 24 2024 and finally got a chance to add some motion graphics to it.

Painting style LoRA experiment
Watercolor painting and pencil sketching style experiments (conducted during company shutdown with some spare time and compute).
- Download tens of art works from my dad’s FB page.
- Train a LoRA over this ink style model.
- Generate outputs via prompts similar to the painting titles from the aforementioned FB page.
A few results look interesting while most are uncanny or boring.
My dad commented that AI cannot replace human artists.

Dinner after train 666
At the departing station for their evening train, he thought about ordering a meal box, but she preferred going for a restaurant at the destination station.
Upon arrival her original choice had a 20-minute wait, so they went to a nearby alternative.
It was slightly passing his usual dinner time, so he lost patience waiting for the food.
She looked flustered, but the food arrived soon after.

Funeral
A funeral is more for the living to bound than for the dead to transition.
The start of the year at an isolated place.
It is the morgue’s interest to have a long and elaborate funeral.
3-part incantation by 3 monks for 3 hours.
If a spirit keeps attaching to me after the funeral, will it show up behind me during a virtual conference call?
Many family members spent a lot of time chatting, while some sat there staring blank.

Facial “lotion”
The facial “lotion” that I have been applying in the past fortnight turned out to be cleansing gel.

Dream earlier this morning
– rough Google Keep drawing after waking up followed by Adobe Fresco vector drawing later in the evening
Probably as a reflection of our trips last week to different destinations, I dreamed about this Google map showing us traveling to the same island without being far away.
