My View Master adaptation of a Zettel tribute (see provenance in description)

• Model: AIVision

• Size: 1024 X 1024 (1.05 MP)

• Used settings:

  • Prompt: A small tangle-haired child sits in a cozy, eclectic room filled with books. They are wearing a dirty threadbare cable knit sweater, checkered pants, and worn casual sneakers. The child wears a tatty looking hat that fits their overall impoverished look. They sport oversized reading glasses with taped together frames, and are engrossed in a book with a colorful cover. The room features an abstract-patterned carpet extending across the floor, a torn backpack hangs over the arm of the chair. Bookshelves brimming with neatly arranged books of various sizes and colors fill the background, along with maps hanging on the wall. The scene is imbued with an anaglyph 3D effect, casting red and blue hues over the entire scene and giving it a surreal, dreamlike quality.
