I had a dream where I was traveling back in time to stop a virus that was destroying all of humanity. As I traveled back in time each stop the virus was worse and worse. Unfortunately I found out too late that the virus didn't obey standard physics because it experienced entropy backwards meaning it spread reverse in time. What I needed to do was travel forward in time to when the infection first began to stop it and I failed.
I've been trying to visualize what I saw in that dream ever since using AI and until now I haven't been able to get close.
Instead of using plain text I used the :: function, specifically necrotising-fasciitis::human which got me some good results. Using plain text resulted in an error that the image didn't fit within the usage terms.
I did a set using a broken pixel art style which was a little closer because it was a digital virus that migrate computers to us. But the title image was a little closer to my dream image.
Broken pixel versions:
Normal art style iterations that lead to the title image (some of these are kind of gross):
Really cool pics... You have scary dreams!
My dreams are more like me being in other situations with other people, like being at someone's house or in a coffee shop etc....
Thank you!
I rarely remember my dreams. And when I do they're normally pretty plain things. In this case I had been reading about entropy and just finished the book Immune. I also think a helping of a lack of sleep led to this dream.
It being so different is why it's stuck with me as long as it has.
On a side note The Three Body Problem is an amazing series that comes close without the virus aspect to my dream. I read them over the holiday week and can't wait for the Netflix series to start later this year!
