Fine-tuning SDXL on childhood photos to simulate how memory reconstructs the past
Chuka444 · reddit · 2026-09-03
An artist fine-tuned SDXL on 60 childhood family photos, treating generative hallucination as an analogue for episodic memory: the model produces unstable, familiar-yet-never-existing variations rather than faithful reconstructions. Built with Kohya, WarpFusion, TouchDesigner, Ableton Live and more, with project files and tutorials shared on YouTube and Patreon.
