Pille Perspective

Visual conversations with the AI 🌸🤖

Some days I do nothing.
Nothing productive, anyway.

I dabble. I dot. I daub with Ohuhu markers — no plan, no noble purpose, just letting shapes wander onto the page.

Then I ask the AI: “Make it real. Make it sci-fi.”

I’m not trained as an artist — these images just live in my head. It’s oddly comforting to have a machine go, “Ah yes, I see it too,” and turn doodles into galaxies.

Here’s the before and after.
Curiosity was in charge.

I love illustrating my own stories.

I’m not a trained artist, so I lean on AI to help me shape these visions — but the worlds, characters, lore, and details don’t magically appear. They’re directed, sculpted, layered, argued with, edited again, and pushed toward the feeling of the world in my head. Every colour, every device, every sensory idea still needs me to think it into form.

This one is from the Neural Nonsense universe — a future empire where art is no longer watched, but felt through the nervous system.

In Empire Year 9934, Schmetterling and Dr. Etherstein debate the Top 5 Emerging Artforms.
Artform #5: Synesthetic Pulse Gardens.

Two ways to step inside a piece of art:

🧠 Receptive Mesh — for the bold
Your nervous system becomes the instrument itself.

✨ Neuro Collar — for the delicate
A private hallucination bubble tailored to your memories.

Schmetterling sees lost autumns from childhood.
The person beside him sees sentient coral reciting jazz.
Dr Etherstein (dryly): “It’s always Coltrane.” 🎷

I built the visual concept, the sensory tech, the exhibition world — then developed the characters' reactions, aesthetics, and tone into something I could show, not just describe. AI helps me paint it, but the world underneath is mine.

And this is only Artform #5.
The empire gets stranger from here.

The Creativity Series continues — next stop: the Synesthetic Gardens, where your emotions come with tasting notes and your memories hum jazz.

✨ Episode drops this weekend as we begin the Top 5 Emerging Artforms of Empire 9934.
Subscribe for mild transcendence.

The Creativity Series is rolling on like an interstellar museum trolley with a slightly wobbly wheel.
Episode 2 has just arrived, poking at the ancient question of whether creativity lives in the artist… or in the poor observer trying to make sense of it all.

From divine sparks to glorified glitches, from bowerbirds to elephants with paintbrushes, we’re deep in the neural weirdness that makes art possible.

✨ Episode 2 is now live — wander in with us.

And coming soon: Schmetterling and Dr. Etherstein’s tour through the Empire’s future art galleries — where emerging artforms occasionally look back at you.

A series for anyone who suspects their best ideas might be quietly sentient.

Our Creativity Series continues its slightly bewildered march through the universe of odd ideas and unexpected brilliance.

A series for anyone who suspects their best ideas might be quietly sentient.

In Episode 2 of our Creativity Series, Schmetterling and Etherstein wander into the forest to observe the true master of installation art: the satin bowerbird.
Blue bottle caps, beetle shells, symmetry that would make a minimalist weep… and all for one dramatic purpose: to impress a date.

From there the conversation spirals—beautifully—into what creativity actually is.
Is it longing? Instinct? Evolutionary malfunction?
Is jazz improv and Gaudí’s architecture that different from a bird arranging shiny objects?

And the big question:
Does art begin with the creator… or with the person who chooses to see meaning in it?

Episode 2 is live.
Bring your curiosity, mismatched socks, and questionable mixtapes.

Welcome to paradise. Please do not touch anything.
Book 1 is with the editor, so naturally… here comes Book 2’s chaotic first draft.
And where better to wrestle plot holes into submission than the dog park?
Pen, scribbles, and a pair of doberdanes supervising my life choices.
