The Up Side Down

I want to see the most impressive images of an upside down reality. From objects, to landscapes, or anything in between, what kinds of inceptions can you create.

I’ve been trying to create an O’Neill Cylinder space habitat interior for a week now. Major kudos if you can can defy gravity with one of these. If you don’t know what an O’Neill cylinder is, watch this 3min render: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2d_0l5ycRM or here is the wiki

    It took me a long time to actually come up with a decent submission. I want super clear what the theme is, and then once I came up with ideas I had a hard time actually generating what I wanted lol.

    I was really hoping that I could get the dude in the reflection to be removed or be different, but I couldn’t seem to get both that and everything else I wanted in the same image

    MS copilot designer prompt

    a man in a hazmat suit falls through a puddle into a spooky alternate reality. in contrast, the reflection in the puddle shows a cheerful metropolis. the man is still falling through the air. the scene is very surreal.

      here are some other ideas I had

      City built on the interior surface of a hollow earth. It would just NOT make the city upside down without anything below it but a glowing ball.

      And a bit more figurative interpretation of theme: a world in where vampires donate blood instead of suck blood, but I couldn’t ever make it clear that’s what the vampire was doing

      Also a stepford suburb where the townspeople were super serious about having you drink your milk. Idky but this was the first thing I thought of, but in the end I thought this was too far from the prompt

          Thanks!

          He was supposed to be giving blood to the patient, but you’re right that’s what it looks like (which is why I didn’t use it 😭)

      Nice one.

      I found this difficult too, but also very interestingly educational about what and how a model understands what it is trained on. It is one thing for a model to know what something looks like, but another thing entirely to understand it in altered context. Some models are better or worse at this kind of comprehension. Part of why I made this challenge was to see if I’m really missing any major models that are much more capable than any I have used, or perhaps other techniques I have not explored. Anyways, thanks for posting! Great image!

        Yeah I’m not advanced enough with this lol. I just use either copilot, or wombo dream (it can make some nice fantastical landscapes, but it’s terrible at people). My familiarity with the different tools is really poor, I mean heavily on just being creative with my prompts and giving up on ideas that don’t work out lol
