What Can I Do with Pop Art Machine Images?
Pop Art Machine images are best suited for large format printing; however, you can also use the images on your computer, digital picture frame, Apple TV or other screen devices. And with some minor modifications, you can also print these on your home ink jet or laser printer.

High Tech Fashion : Poster Art : Part 3 of 3
Pop Art Machine presents part three of three: free poster sized art prints from the http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3959274/contemporary_masters_of_photography torrent.
The original files from the torrent are generally low resolution screen images. Pop Art Machine excels at creating large format digital prints from scraps of images found from far reaches of the internet.
These images are suited for printing in large format sizes. If you download a full size image by clicking on the image of your choice, save it, and you can send it to a photo processor and get any size of print up to 30″ wide developed. There are a number of online services that offer this processing at surprisingly low rates. PEphoto.com is one we’ve used with good results for the money. Some images may need to be cropped a bit for standard size printing.
Other output options exist. We’ve taken some of our collection to local large format ink jet printers and outputted on everything from plain copy paper to a number of exotics that give the print the appearance of a painting. We’ve even printed these on vinyl!

William S. Burroughs: Cover Art … an Exhibit Preview
The large collection of William S. Burroughs book covers at http://mysite.orange.co.uk/burroughs-books/ serves as primary source for Pop Art Machine’s take on the literary outlaw. The quality of the source material is virtually unprintable but machine’s output is in many cases quite good.
In full there are 419 posters en route to our public gallery. Processing speed varies from image to image based on visual complexity but the entire exhibition should be ready for display around February 21st, 2008. When complete we will present the entire collection sorted by title and publication date.
If you would like to print any of these works for presentation and need assistance, please inquire. We’d be happy to provide the simple instructions for printing using a photo finisher for, depending on size, between $1 and $30. Otherwise, stay tuned for the pending exhibit!

More Bed Bugs; poster art print insect objects
The CPUs on server one have been cranked for over a week and Pop Art Machine is cranking out the bug prints. These object prints are devoid of any background and the machine filters do a good job dealing with edge transition most of the time. In this latest installation you’ll find a mix of ten ready to print JPEG images suitable for sizes up to 30 inches wide.
For good measure we’ve thrown in a biting insect cutup text, or montage, to tantalize other parts of your brain and keep the search engines interested. For what it’s worth, the machine was recently given a new object tracing tool called autotrace. Some of the tests done with the new toolkit were performed on the bug series. How would you like to see a 16 foot spider on your wall? More on that soon.
What do Andy Warhol and William S. Burroughs Have in Common?
Alternate: a Pop Art Machine Statement
Andy Warhol said of his work, “The reason I’m painting this way is because I want to be a machine. Whatever I do, and do machine-like, is because it is what I want to do.” This identity of method and object gives Warhol’s paintings their special authority: petal repeats petal, blossom repeats blossom, …

Annie Leibovitz Pop Art Fashion Reduction; The Center Punch Series @ 16×20 inches
Anne Leibovitz is by any measure a popular artist. Will her work survive Pop Art Machine’s reduction processing? You be the judge.
This first series applies a standard machine art or cut out filter at 30×40 inches with a subsequent center gravity 16×20 inch crop. None of the series was manipulated in any way with Photoshop or otherwise handled by a human operator.
The resulting output should come as little surprise to anyone who has ever produced photography for fashion catalogs. It’s an immediately recognizable form.

Large Format Art Print: Green Parrot on Black Background
Machine generated “Green Parrot on Black Background” large format art print. 30 inches by 40 inches. Will print up sharp! If nothing else this is a pleasant image.
Methodology
1) normalize image contrast
2) perform adaptive-resize with 9000 width pixels @ -density 300, units PixelsPerInch
3) normalize contrast and create an ordered-dither threshold level 4
4) normalize contrast and perform color segmentation at cluster threshold 1000 and smoothing threshold 1.5. Note: Segmentation of the color space (not image objects. This can produce very verbose output while applying the “fuzzy c-means algorithm”. More on that later.
5) normalize contrast and reduce noise from the segmentation
6) normalize contrast and apply a very light 1 pixel radius blur to soften color separation edges.
Art Print from 20 Years of Fashion Photography Collection
The Pop Art Machine is churning through a Torrent snagged from The Pirate Bay: Contemporary Art.
The Machine is generally opting for the following process based on image quality. The Machine isn’t always right so the humans review the Machine’s output and post what we find . . . interesting.
Bed Bugs; poster print insect objects
While in the midst of reviewing the machine’s output from the “masters of photography” torrent, we found an old lot of photo objects featuring insects of all varieties. Some of these can be found in the
original Pop Art Machine prototype.
Some of these bug posters, or at least derivatives of them, have been printed up to 20×30 inches in output tests. In one case a batch of bug prints like the ones shown below were printed at 12×18 inches using an inexpensive photo processor, mounted in glass clip frames and hung on a young child’s wall in a series of five. We’ll see if a photo can be tracked down for demonstration purposes. They look great!

His art involves the use of natural and found objects to create both temporary and permanent sculptures which draw out the character of their environment. Post 4/4.
