Project ideas from my recent trip to Berlin/Heidelberg…

Imaginary Video Games (in 8-bit 80s style)

  • Welcome to Neverland (living with Michael Jackson simulator)
  • Welcome to Neukölln (hipster simulator, occasional Palestiner protest, falafel)
  • Where in the World is Jeffrey Epstein? (in the style of Carmen Sandiego)
  • MoNapoli: Garbage strikes and Pizza (but otherwise like a Monopoly game)

Music (When in Berlin…Techno is king…)

Art

  • Victor Vasarely designs in marble and gold
  • Imaginary Cinema: Mad Max, but with Kangaroos
  • Convert Caspar David Friedrich landscapes into Rothko-style color-field paintings by taking the average color on each line
  • Use a style-transfer imagine transfer model to convert pornography into Picasso-style cubistic nudes (“art!”)
  • Stable diffusion on Gerhard Richter schmear paitings…whats’s the underlying pattern or structure
  • Augmented reality baroque overlay (especially fun if you make this site-specific for a place like the Bauahaus museum)
  • Making Baroque era arhcitectural drawings into photorealistic CAD

Fashion

  • Backstage pass- style micromosaic/leather jewerly
  • Leather “festival” bracelets: Could have a special RFID clasp that breaks when unlocked.
  • Hawaiian shirts in the style of Karl Schmidt-Rottluff

Home projects

  • Clean up the router/music nook to make more room for synthesizers
  • Novels: Hollebeq’s Submission, African Sci Fi (Apocalypse Now Now, Zoo City)
