I love Lovecraft, I am 74 and I ❤ your reading. Thank you!

[@antonioortiz4544]

I've been reading Lovecraft for 40 years. This is the greatest adaptation I have ever seen of his work. I hope you make more. I would love to see any other Lovecraft adaptation. Thank you!!

[@wayofages184]

Yes, do them all as I’m sure you plan to!

[@JosKelly]

These illustrations create a terrific mood and are far more flamboyant than my own imaginings! They’ve made me see this story in a brand new way.

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

I'm glad! If you have any suggestions, let me know!

[@JeremiahWdabullfrog]

They are just AI. They are just as soulless as this nameless city.

[@user-ih3yw8te4l]

The nameless city wasn't always soulless. One day AI will think the same of us.

[@CWHolleman]

Thank AI

[@CWHolleman]

@@JeremiahWdabullfrog Indeed.

[@jamescampbell39]

Your narrator has a masterful voice.

[@Kane.JimLahey.]

It's a non-human

[@jamescampbell39]

@@Kane.JimLahey. AI that is amazing the voice just flowed unlike the AI they use on the cosmic body horror page you can tell the reader is a machine

[@Kane.JimLahey.]

@@jamescampbell39 Times are changing. Spooky!

[@JohnDWJ]

As a voice actor AI makes me very sad.

[@matthewweng8483]

​@@JohnDWJ As an illustrator and animator, it makes me sad too.

[@Omnicharlizard]

I would love to find a city like this in the dessert, and should I find something similar to this tale. I would play the role of a story teller to keep the wonder lust alive for future explorers and the legend going

[@biancaflier6248]

Fantastic und great illustrations. I love it. Thousand thanks for this wonderful illuminated story of Lovecraft.😻

[@Froghood1]

Superb images. Please let's have more such enthralling stories! 👏👏😊😊

[@FrancoJules]

Ned Stark was a well-known fan of Lovecraft's works.

[@WowUsernameAvailable]

It's pretty fascinating how AI produces these images. Sometimes there's a bunch of legs or wings floating in the air unattached to a body, or a Parthenon-style temple with 2 columns on one side of the entrance and 3 on the other, or something along the same lines, or heads missing from bodies. It's quite Lovecraftian in itself to think that it can look so realistic and convincing, but be missing the most basic logic present in the natural world and understood by a human being.

[@bleakautomaton4808]

That is a cool idea

[@juliea.7292]

This narrator is absolutely wonderful 🙌🙌💥💥👊👊

[@Tom-sd9jb]

Sounds like Sean Bean AI lol.

[@CWHolleman]

Sean Bean?

[@VictorReynolds]

The illustrations give the story a visual feel which underscores the story’s greatness.

[@CWHolleman]

AI generated.

[@aron666xparamor6]

Just got back from wadi rum and Petra, this is great work sir. Great reading too

[@asmodiusjones9563]

This story always reminds me of Minas Morgul. The fact that it used to be Minas Ithil, tower of the moon, is part of it.

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

What stories would you like to see in the future?

[@hemidas]

@@NarrativeAestheticsImagery Anything from H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Alan Poe or even Robert E. Howard

[@iNCoMpeTeNtplAyS]

Pictures are nice but don't fit because as the narrator says many times, he has trouble moving in the cramped temple and is either crawling or moving around not quite standing but sort of on his knees

[@GreatOldOne9866]

That’s true. I usually just prefer the narration, audio visualizer, ambience and one fitting picture.

[@CWHolleman]

This guy just typed stuff into an AI image generator.

[@tomsmith422]

Absolutely mesmerizing! This visual journey through H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Nameless City' is a masterpiece of storytelling and imagery. The haunting landscapes and eerie atmospheres are brought to life so vividly, making me feel as if I'm right there, exploring the depths of the ancient city.

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

Very glad you liked it so much! Let me know if there's anything I can improve for the next video!

[@billstar2]

Totally agree. Breathtaking imagery and amazing voice delivery. Top notch. Would love to see more

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

​@@billstar2 Leave suggestions of stories you'd like to see!

[@billstar2]

Anything Lovecraft kind of goes without saying. Maybe Dagon or Call of Cthulhu although that’s a long one. The thing at the door as well.

[@Ipsifendis]

i read this yesterday and found this video today. spooky!

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

You know.... I've had a lot of spooky coincidences making this video

[@d.j.rproductions]

@@NarrativeAestheticsImagery could you share some?

It's called Google.

[@GreatOldOne9866]

Sean Bean, is that *you* ?

[@wayofages184]

That’s whose face I saw too!

[@CWHolleman]

@@wayofages184 The narrator..

[@markamiotte8307]

Same! Even if it isn’t him, it’ll be him in my brain.

[@CraigJohnson-zs5qt]

Wow, this is actually pretty cool

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

Haha! Thanks! It took me a while to put together

[@CWHolleman]

Interesting plan. 1) Take written works, input their text into AI image generator. 2) Stitch random images together in Windows Movie Maker while playing a snippet of an audio book. Profit.

[@JCVC1986454]

That sounds like Sean Bean

[@elizabethkabui4076]

❤ purely a master piece

[@GhastlyWhispersVisual]

Very nice! It looks very similar to my videos.

[@CWHolleman]

You both use AI?

[@lucasvega9277]

Tbh I thought Cthulhu was in this story. I was surprised.

[@CartoonHero1986]

I think The Nameless City and its people had something to do with Hastur which is like Cthulhu's larger half brother. He's and his followers are a bit of conflict in the mythos since he is a Great Old One... but is rarely found on Earth with the other Great Old Ones which SHOULD make him an Outer God which is a step just above Great Old Ones like Cthulhu but he's not for some reason? That is what we get though when the Mythos is spread out across decades and several artists all inspired and building upon one another's work... which is kind of awesome since it's supposed to be secret and lost history of Earth so who cares if there is conflicting info in one story from another... it's a fictional story of humans recounting fragmented ruins of precursor species long dead before modern human civilisation.

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

Interesting thay Cthulhu isn't mentioned. But a lot of the references in this tie into the rest of the cuthulu lore. This was technically the first story of that universe. It set the tone, and atmosphere for what was to come to an extent

[@NarrativeAestheticsImagery]

​@CartoonHero1986 good points!

[@lhadzyan7300]

Lakmé´s duet kinda seems out of context there at the end!

[@apborick5796]

Narrator sounds like Sean Bean. Excellent.

[@theelittlestbird]

its ai dude

[@7F0X7]

So was the narrator on the other side of the abyss when the brass door shut or was he inside with those creatures when the door shut? The wording was too vague for me.
