Did you know, Moe?

Is mainstream's slipstream 
the place to be? 
Comfortable for sure...
A droll scene?
Snooza palooza? 
Numbing normies? 
I get it, 
I've felt this way too, Jack! 
Spent a fair amount 
of time 
(and dimes)
                         with the indies,
alternatives, 
                 counters 
& fringe...
I'm no stranger 
to any of it.
I thrived! 
Ha! 
Still do!
Did you know, though...
Moe-
Everything 
is a slipstream 
off Main street's 
mainstream,
where all streams 
ultimately converge?
Now, 
how about those cats 
swimming against 
the mainstream?
They are the ones 
who can truly say 
they did it their way...

(Words mine. Image created with Grok in the first image and Gemini Nano Banna created the last two images in a collaborative process called synthography. This one was a lot of fun! 
Thanks for reading. Everything is part of the same stream.)

|The New Synthographers (gallery)

TL/DR : The Short Version: If photography is "capturing light," synthography is "distilling language." I feed my poetry into a digital "imagination camera" that translates my metaphors into patterns and pixels—turning the DNA of my writing into a visual landscape.  Synthography it is. In short, it means human and AI collaboration to create an image, video, or song.  More in depth from Google:   "Synthography is the emerging art form of creating images using artificial intelligence (AI) models, a process distinct from traditional photography (which captures light) or digital painting, where an artist uses prompts, parameters, and iterative refinement to generate visuals from text or other inputs, essentially "writing" or "drawing" with an "imagination camera".  It combines "synthetic" creation with "graphy" (writing/drawing) to describe the skill of crafting detailed prompts and tuning AI mo...
