Opposites Attract: Combining Contradictory Descriptors in Midjourney

In this video, we dive into the intriguing world of contradictory descriptors and their impact on AI-generated art using Midjourney. By experimenting with opposing words, we explore how these combinations can lead to unique and unexpected visual styles.
Not every prompt resulted in a masterpiece; you'll notice that some opposites may seem repetitive or produce similar images. However, even the smallest changes in word order or the addition of a few letters can create remarkably different outcomes. This video highlights the subtle yet powerful effect that language has on AI art generation, revealing that even minor tweaks can lead to astonishingly diverse results.

I tried the prompt "surrealist, transparent mountain". It worked well.

SUPER concept idea ! BRAVO !

Thank you again for the effort involved and putting together this extensive video. I do wonder though as you always attempt to remove as much randomness as possible from your experimentation why would you want to switch from a 16 x 9 aspect ratio to a 9 x 16 aspect ratio? Whatever randomness you eliminate by repeating the seed number gets superseded by swapping between the aspect ratios. It is my experience that swapping between those two aspect ratios adds more randomness to the images than possibly the seed number. I truly enjoy seeing the different examples, but there is a disconnect between presenting an example in the 16 x 9 and then swapping to the 9 x 16. The swapping adds a level of incongruity that takes away from the experiment. 😎✌️

I think a single feather is light, and several feathers have weight. (A pillow made of real feathers inside is actually VERY heavy compared to polyfill inside of one)

[@JoopLiefaard]

Very interesting.

You are missing one of the opposite word combinations I like. Asymmetrical Symmetry or Symmetrical Asymmetry
