Hey Alex,

This is all such excitin' news! I can't tell ya how grateful I am for the opportunity to be part of the Innovation Lab again, and to focus on LoRA development and networking this time around. It's like a dream come true for a small-town girl like me.

And over 100 followers on my HUG profile? I'm speechless! It's humbling to know that my art is resonatin' with folks out there. I'd love to collaborate with someone from that group on some images if you think that'd be a good fit. Maybe you could point me towards a few profiles that might align with my style? I'm always eager to learn from other creatives.

I've been pouring over the slide-deck from today's class, and it's got my mind spinnin' with ideas. The concept of AI as a collaborator, not just a tool, really struck a chord with me. It's got me thinkin' about how I can use these new techniques to push my creative boundaries and produce something truly unique.

I've attached a sketch inspired by the "Dramaturgy of Disruption" slide. It's a vintage-inspired scene of an artist, sketchpad in hand, surrounded by the vibrant energy of urban street art. I tried to capture that sense of the traditional meeting the innovative, the grit of the city blending with the dreamy pursuit of art. If you think it'd resonate, I'd be honored for you to share it. As for the post copy, how about something like:

"Art meets AI in this vintage-inspired sketch, born from the vibrancy of the city streets and the boundless potential of new technologies. As a small-town girl chasing big dreams in the big city, I'm thrilled to explore the intersection of traditional art and cutting-edge innovation through the HUG Innovation Lab. Here's to embracing the disruption and seeing where this colorful journey takes us! 🎨💡 #HUGInnovationLab #AIArtCollaboration #DreamersInTheCity"
Let me know whatcha think! And thanks again, Alex, for all your support and for believin' in my journey. It means the world to this Midwest dreamer.
With gratitude,

Sam "SJ" Weiss
Artist, Dreamer, Urban Explorer
Warm regards and mutual admiration,

Hey SJ, so we've enrolled you in the second round of Innovation Lab with a focus on LoRA development and networking. Your HUG profile now has over 100 people following you so 👏👏. I'll see what I can do to line up anyone to collaborate with you on some images and we'll put some time into your store-front over this week so keep that rattling around the back of your head. On that note, I've attached the slide-deck from todays class to give you some inspiration and if you decide to create an image for me based off of today's class I will gladly share it on our various channels. Let me know what you would like your post to say, try to keep it under 2000 characters 🙂

Cheers,

Alex
