that's an awesome idea, do you have a link to more information?


Ill write it up once it's done and post here, if it gains traction you might see it haha.

In all seriousness I can give a brief overview:

- I'll probably offload the image generation to the 5 year old intel nuc I already have as a home automation server, comfyUI in CPU mode takes 20-30 mins for a generation. Ideally it's all self contained on the Pi but that might be beyond me, skill wise.

- prompts are composed by taking time of day, season, special occasions (birthdays, xmas etc); adding random subjects from a long manually curated list; then asking gpt4 to creatively remix the prompt for variety

- i have an inky impression 7.3 inch 7 color eink display and a raspberry zero stuck onto it. Right now it'll simply download new images from the NUC every once in a while

- i like wood and i dislike the jagged 3d printer aesthetic so I'll create a frame from laser cut plywood by designing some stackable svg shapes in inkscape and sending those to a laser cutter

It works right now, functionally.

Considering that I'm painstakingly writing this on a phone with a sleeping 3 week old baby on my chest it'll be while before i have the energy to make it look like something you'd hang on your wall


Sounds awesome what’s your Twitter ?
