Glitched Generative AI Art

Experimenting with AI has significantly changed the way I create art. While Midjourney allows me to quickly generate images, using AI-generated images alone feels somewhat impersonal. To address this, I incorporate my own style into each piece through detailed post-production.

Midjourney serves as the starting point of my workflow. It enables me to generate numerous images efficiently, greatly increasing the scope of my projects. Previously, I spent a long time on a single piece, but now I have many starting points to work from thanks to Midjourney.

An overview of some of the images I generated using Midjourney.

After generating images, I use GlitchLab for preliminary edits. This app allows me to quickly experiment with glitch effects such as pixel stretching, noise, and radial blurring. Pixel stretching creates streams of color, noise and radial blur add visual interest, and glitch distortion techniques like offsetting pixels give a disrupted screen effect. Combining these effects through layered radial stretches produces more intricate visual textures.

These initial edits act as sketches before further refinement in Adobe Photoshop. In Photoshop, I have tools for precise editing and post-production so the final image can be exported for socials.

This AI-driven workflow allows me to quickly assemble complete galleries of artwork. Rather than dedicating significant time to a single piece I can efficiently produce multiple images in one session.

Below, you’ll find a gallery showcasing some of my favorite results from these experiments. Each artwork demonstrates how AI tools like Midjourney combined with GlitchLab and Adobe Photoshop enhance and complement my artistic process.
