I got some mean attitudes from other students and they complained to art teacher why my works are like movie posters. I never thought of movie posters. Some of artworks are like poster too. I just think of how I should see and understand. I was hurt a lot in college for that by students.

It would probably be comparing it to a large enough sample size of similar images; if there is a plethora of such WW2 images, it would make sense that it would find a connection based on that (as opposed to if say, only one such value existed). <br />Also, it makes sense that it would look for pixels or colour information rather than facial recognition (which is wayyyy more complex) using DNN (Deep neural networks). I attended a Google lecture last week on machine learning algorithms used (including Smart@$$, which is used for Ads), and I remember I had done an AI course where they said they were able to interpret language or meaning from similarities. For example, if there was a menu with the words "chicken" next to several Chinese characters, the DNN algorithm could 'figure out' what the character for Chinese is.

So I guess something common is tracable by A.I...

It was nicknamed the "Blut Zeitung" = blood newspaper. A couple years ago I saw a display of patriotic posters from the Nazi era which were again printed in Red and Black. I wondered about the connection then, When you prompted us about a possible linkage, I thought of the German tabloid and the posters.

Is the range of emotions triggered by red instinct, learned (culturally), or a complement - based on context? As artists from sundry countries/cultures exploit red similarily, there's sound argument for an ingrained human reaction. I forget the (famous) artist but decades ago I read his advice to find a way to include some form of red into every painting - it excites the human psyche. Indeed. Nice sketch, James! Fresh. And interestinglyemits calm (somewhat).

I struggled to connect the shape and colors with any genre, and in a stretch came up with a certain loose, painterly style that I've seen in some comics.Tom Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04770238579550226268noreply@blogger.com
