From May through October of 2023 I presented at the Cathenge Cat Temple installation at Hayes Valley, San Francisco, a bi-weekly series of “Space Cat Sessions” that were multi-media story-telling presentations, PowerPoint Presentations using hundreds of images, recounting the Saga of the Lyran Space Cats, the “Space Cat Odyssey” of the “Cathenge Mythos”.
The majority of thes images used in the presentation were made using AI art bot, “Midjourney”, which was invaluable in illustrating the epic tale of the Space Cats efficiently and with a high-polish sci-fi/fantasy style.
The series of fliers presented here was also made largely with Midjourney. Working with Midjourney is an uncanny and magical experience because the AI seems to fuse synergistically with my intuition, yielding results both refreshingly unpredicted and often beyond my expectations – as evidenced by thse Space Cat Session fliers.
The Space Cat Odyssey is a tale of how the Space Cats lost their Love Planet of Lemewria in a catastrophic conflagration with the Dreaded Disco-Reptilians, how they transubstantiated to Planet Earth in the height of the Ice Age, and how eventually the Space Cats created humankind as pro-wrestling species for their feline amusement.
These events sometimes featured live music and dancing, and were always opened with the recitation of the “Space Cat Ballad” , and concluded with a supplementary talk on the making of Cathenge.
