#style transfer
Canada Paradis(e)
Latest visual experiment by LuluxXX utilizes video style transfer to slow-motion footage of splashy fluid dynamics (soundtracked with Boards Of Canada):
using slowmo and fluid footage with artistic style transfer.
original footage from french group Paradis
original sound from Board of Canada
I used software from Manuel Ruder and deepflow to generate optical flow.

With just a few style-change examples, I got GPT-3 to change the Winnie the Pooh theme song into this:
In the uncanny depths of the Hundred Acre Wood
is the place where the great wizard Christopher Robin plays.
If you are fool enough to enter, you will find the enchanted place
where he first came into the fullness of his power.
The great wizard is accompanied by Eeyore, a donkey of great power
As well as the famous Kanga and that which is called Roo. We shall not speak of Tigger.
There is also Rabbit, and Piglet, a mighty duo feared across these lands,
and, of course, there is Owl, also known as The Silent Feathered Death.
But the greatest of them all is Winnie the Pooh.
Winnie the Pooh! Tremble to pronounce his name!
The Great Bear, whose deeds speak for themselves.
Yes, Winnie the Pooh! Speak the power of the Pooh.
Ubiquitous, unpredictable, and terribly ancient.

Gave GPT-3 a few examples of how to change one style of text into another and now it can do this:
Input:
I’m dressing as a pumpkin for Halloween!
Scarier:
I am the Pumpkin King, the owl ruler of all beasts, the bringer of eternal darkness, the Master of 1000 Corpses.
Input:
I’m dressing as a cat for Halloween!
Scarier:
“I will spend this Hallow’s Eve as a harmless house cat.
Input:
I’m dressing as a vampire for Halloween!
More impressive:
I shall be displaying my vampiric prowesses at a Halloween carnaval gala on a black a moonless night caparisoned capriciously in a cape, a cowl, a cape accentuated with a collar and a collar that is black, a tailcoat, a batwinged bat-sleeve bat-wing bat-collared batwing batwing batwing batwing batwing
Input:
I’m dressing as a princess for Halloween!
More interesting:

I also tried this experiment with the smallest GPT-3 model, Ada, but it wasn’t quite as good at it.
Input:
I’m dressing as a ghost for Halloween!
Scarier:
My cousin Magdalena has disappeared. She is hoodwinking us all.
