#62Didn’t expect image expanding... was blown away.
Mix in temporal energy plus a ML objects DB, put that in a chip, and turn decades of 4:3 TV into widescreen!

#63Surprisingly, imagemagick already supports this.

#66I remember first seeing content aware image scaling at Adobe MAX in Barcelona I think it was. We were completely dumbfounded by what was surely magic happening on stage. When they showed removing objects we just lost it, jaws on the floor and all. That was a fun conference.

#67Loosely tangental; can anyone recommend an image library management system they've had success with? Looking for uploading, thumb-nailing, search metadata, access levels and ideally some on-the-fly transformations like Cloudinary offer

It's super fun but I can't think of many real-world uses. Maybe in subtle, element-wise stretching and reshaping as part of more complex editing? Squeezing images is a huge no-no in any graphic design, and while content-aware resizing is a neat trick to avoid the most glaring problems, it's still image squeezing. You'd rather just crop the image or choose a different one.
Surely this is true in journalism. I find it hard to believe it's true in ad work.

#70Came for the “seam carving”... okay. Didn’t expect image expanding... was blown away. Mix in temporal energy plus a ML objects DB, put that in a chip, and turn decades of 4:3 TV into widescreen!
