The goddess #Ishtar looks over the city of New Dilmun, #Mesopotamia. She is eager to get off her airborne high horse and mingle with the mortals below. #Babylon #BabylonBeyond #mythology #aiart #Seedance

#Hipgnosis designed every #PinkFloyd album cover from "A Saucerful of Secrets" to "Animals." For "The Wall," they hired cartoonist Gerald Scarfe. But what if Hipgnosis was hired to do the album art for 'The Wall?'" I prompted #ChatGPT to generate designs "The Wall" in the style of Hipgnosis.

A year ago today, my mother breathed her last and returned to the elements. She lived a good, long life and gave me a lot of love and care. ❤️ Patricia Judge, RIP.

Based on my screenplay "Babylon Beyond!" During a jaunt through history, the goddess Ishtar - known to her history students as Ms. Morningstar - protects one of her queer students from a wrathful mob! #queer #ishtar #goddess #inanna #babylon #aiart #aiartcommunity #sora2

NEARLY FIFTY YEARS AGO: 23 November 1975: The release date in Paris for "Salò: The 120 Days of Sodom." Here is one TikTok influencers take on one of the most notorious films in the history of cinema. 🤥😉 #SaloThe120DaysofSodom #Pasolini #DeSade #film #ItalianFilm #sora

#aiart #aiartcommunity #aianimation #ishtar #goddess From my script "Babylon Beyond!" Ishtar treats herself for some well-deserved "me time." When the hostess of the B&B calls for an exorcist. Ishtar is none too happy!

#aiart #aiartcommunity #aianimation #ishtar #goddess From my script, “Babylon Beyond!” Ishtar, goddess of love and war, takes a rare moment to rest, sing, and play the lure. Her hosts at the B&B where she stays have second thoughts about their strange lodger!

#aiart #aianimation #aiartcommunity #ishtar #goddess #painting #sora Ishtar paints a sun disc. She's more dynamic in this animation. More in character. Disney-isms scrubbed away.

#aiart #aianimation #aiartcommunity #ishtar #goddess #painting #sora Ishtar paints a crescent moon in her studio. She looks a little too much like a Disney princess. Out of character, but I can fix that in future animations.

#aiart #aiartcommunity #aianimation #ishtar #goddess #sora Ishtar plays a lyre on the porch of a sleepy suburban B&B, while her hosts look on in fear and confusion. Argument in Farsi (I think).
