Shin-Bijutsukai (Japanese textile patterns, 1902-1906)

Shin-Bijutsukai was a Japanese art magazine published between 1902 and 1906. It was filled with patterns for textiles, ceramics, screens, and other artisan endeavors. Each issue was meant to provide a model for crafts enthusiasts and to stand as a work of art in its own right. Its creator was Kamisaka Sekka , who's been called "the greatest 20th-century Japanese designer" and was known for mixing the traditional ( the Rinpa school ) and the modern ( Art Nouveau ).

This embedding is trained on 30 patterns from the 1902 issues of Shin-Bijutsukai , which translates roughly to "New Oceans of Art." (You can find the complete archive at the Internet Archive .) It can create endless lovely patterns, and with the right weights, you can inject other elements into the mix. It was cooked for a total of 300 steps on base SD 1.5: 16 vectors per token, a 0.004 learning rate, a batch size of 6, and 5 gradient steps.

Your ratings, especially of the five-star variety, are very much appreciated.
