So It Begins #40

Open kellyegan opened 6 years ago

I know little about generating a novel... or writing one... I'm pretty sure it involves words... hopefully not spelling because I'm bad at that. I fully expect to create the greatest work of cliched nonsense ever created within a month, with zero experience and little free time.

So I think I'd like to create a narrative based off images. I have done a basic search for images on flickr and added basic processing of them with clarifai api to get semantic data about each image.

I hope to use a series of images to weave the narrative, each chapter will start with one image and the story will attempt to integrate it with previous images.

I have cleared up my idea a little bit. Initially I considered having a single narrator talking about an image, but now as I look more closely at the Clarifai data (particularly without reference to source image) I feel it makes more sense to have a debate.

Each chapter will be a discussion between agents/researchers about what the image is. In order to give it some direction they are going to also have the pool of previous images to talk about and also be searching some particular content that they hope to find by the end of the book.

Still a long way off from anything readable.
