The next color, red, is actually where I got this idea: Just throwing "red" into a prompt often generates banners, cities, flowers, and red-haired women, even alongside other words.
Naturally, I tried to get it to generate some inhabitants for Deep Dendo, too. In the absence of any other description, though, they also came out looking like wicked voorish domes.
"Then beyond the woods there were other hills round in a great ring, but I had never seen any of them; it all looked black, and everything had a voor over it. It was all so still and silent, and the sky was heavy and grey and sad, like a wicked voorish dome in Deep Dendo."
It's definitely a place. It's mentioned in a vague and suggestive way in Arthur Machen's vague and suggestive story "The White People".
I fell down a Midjourney rabbit hole trying to find out what Deep Dendo is.
I'm kind of amazed that Midjourney can completely spell out "Stoner Rock" correctly. Every time somebody asks DALL-E to spell "cat", it's all "GTAACATTA", even though DALL-E is generally better at doing realistic stuff than Midjourney.
As someone who's purchased a lot of ska albums, I'm not sure the machine is really doing this right. As someone who's never purchased a prog rock album, though, I do suspect they have FUCKING AWESOME covers in reality.
Conveniently, I don't even have to explain which images are which music genres, because the algorithm has helpfully labelled them! Normally, I tell it not to include text, because it really likes to randomly just toss words from your prompts into its images.
Okay, quick dumb Midjourney experiment before I get to work: album covers. Dead simple prompts, just "[music genre] album cover".
