I created this using a system described in this paper and demo, Text2Video-Zero on Hugging face about generating video from text. I used this prompt: “Rothko like painting with three fuzzy edged color field rectangles transitioning in hue from warmer to cooler and darker values.”

Here I am reading Paul Klee’s Pedagogical Sketchbook. This is the very beginning of the book. As you can see, it is about drawing lines. For example, Fig. 1 shows “An active line on a walk, moving freely, without goal. A walk for a walk’s sake. The mobility agent is a point, shifting its position forward.”

Keep in mind that those lines are both a representation of the content in Klee’s book and are actual lines in my drawing and on my paper, taking a walk for walk’s sake.
