# DeepDream (ディープドリーム) — image generation prompt
# IndexStyle No.574 — https://indexstyle.org/styles/deepdream
# Style descriptors only. This prompt names no artist, studio, brand or work.

Produce four original images in the visual language of DeepDream, a technique from Digital Art, 2015–.

## What to make

Make the kind of thing this style exists for: exhibits and critical images that make machine misrecognition immediately visible, or music video and cover imagery that keeps a source landscape beneath a multi-scale hallucination. Choose one subject and hold it across all four images.

## What has to be visible

- Eyes and animal faces repeated across the frame
- Swirling texture multiplying along source contours
- Multi-scale repetition that reveals new figures when viewed closer
- Saturated blue, yellow and violet rolling continuously

Someone who knows this style should be able to point at each of these in the finished image.

## How to build it

- Layout and structure: Preserve the source's large composition and amplify related features at several scales to create recursion into depth
- Type and lettering: Add type after processing, keeping it short, bold and simple enough not to fight the detail
- Material and surface: Choose layers in a trained vision model and iteratively increase their activation through gradient ascent
- Colour: #F0C84B carries the ground, #2FD5C4 is the colour the style is remembered by, #21134A holds text and outlines. Read off real works, so treat them as a direction rather than a fixed palette.
- What it should feel like: technique, futurity, exhilaration

## What goes wrong

It is not a swirl filter or pasted dog faces. Preserve which layer and feature were amplified and how they bind to the source.

## Across the four

Keep every cue above present in all four. Vary the framing, the scale and the arrangement so the set shows the range this style covers rather than four versions of one picture.

## Constraints

- Do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work.
- Do not reproduce the composition of an existing work.
- Produce original compositions in the general period language described above.
