Scenes from my play



My recent foray into Nano Banana - a multi algorithms array, lead me to give it precise instructions and descriptions of various scenes in the play that I wrote in 2024. I chose Cinematic as the style because it allowed me to set scenes with a 1950s aesthetic. Please note that the play is simultaneously unpublished and unstaged, however in a way I have been able to present it as though it has been parti

ally staged through this virtual medium. I learnt through the process that I often had to correct what the AI provided to me until I achieved the scene that I envisaged in my mind whilst writing the play.  Here are some of the scenes.

More AI assisted images

It's convenient for me to utilize my own face rather than appropriate that of another. Here are latest images I've created using Nani Banana AI with the baseline being photographs of me at different times in my life.

Rrose Selavy

This morning I made (AI assisted) a work in response to Duchamp's Rrose Selavy. I began with that Photobooth photo of me when I was 15 and instructed the AI to make various changes to it. Here is Duchamp's work and my AI image.

Backrooms a disaster!

I've just suffered through the absolute slow, torture of the 2026 film Backrooms. The first ten minutes graced with an unseen person running through large, empty, depressing yellow spaces, quick jump cuts and sudden sounds played on my nervous system and the hand held camera work made me borderline nauseas. Save yourself, I say from the predictability of the premise, the borrowed sci-fi reliance of the unseen monster, always more frightening than the actual alien itself. I walked out on this film, which was repetitive in its imagery and psychological ideas. So much hype, so much nothingness.
