In 2019 I decided to make at least one image using Deep Dream Generator per day, for 365 days. Near the end of that journey people told me that my imagery (the output) had improved greatly. Today, I combine DDG with Midjourney, both include image prompts. The call-and-response interaction with AI is very similar to what happens when a DJ uses "quick-mixing": when a break is finished on one turntable, a mixer switches to another turntable. Plenty of people think what I do with AI is easy until they use the tool(s).

I don't need a human to collaborate. Not anymore.
