I know Jerry Map (I hope that someday will be a exposition in Spain) because I love it, I love the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outsider_art. The people who maybe mad and they built a world with own rules.
You know, it'd have been amazing if TFA has not opened with that video. So instead of clicking the link to view TFA, you went off and dug up the exact same link in TFA???
It would make an interesting map generation algorithm that could feed the card data and specified map tiles into an image gen AI system that would have to take the map tiles and try to follow the rules.
As I get older I’ve come to realize more and more how bad instant gratification is. There’s value and mental health benefits in doing things that are slow and take time and effort.
As I was coming back to the thread, I was dreading someone might be making this submission about AI. I miss HN from before it became AIN and other types of intellectual curiosity were drained out.
What’s marvellous about this work is the antithesis of AI and computers, the artist and the process are what’s fascinating about it. Generative map and art programs are a dime a dozen. Those have value in their own way, but it’s different from this. There’s no need to conflate the two, most things do not need or benefit from AI.

I remember the book of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Darger or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_Fortress or Cataclysm DDA .
There's a good People Make Games video about this from a few days ago

The linked article actually does not have that video; the website linked in the description has it. Not surprising that someone missed it.
The most Borgesian thing to ever be posted on HN.
From the first sentence and image on jerrysmap.com I seriously thought it was Jerry Garcia's doing for a second.
Looks like the OG fortnite map to me
People Make Games just did a terrific documentary on this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Is8N7B9b0GQ&pp=0gcJCUECo7VqN5t...
It's literally at the top of the post.
Well, in the secondary link, at least.

Can't feed Jerry to the ai though
When articles like this are published along with photos and videos, in a way it is feeding Jerry to the AI.
If he's been blogging as long as it says, he's already part of the collective

Does every single thing need to be about AI? Really?
I mean, to be fair, some "super resolution" solutions for image generation do subdivide things into tiles to be re-done at a higher fidelity.
