Our books are an exploration and experimental collaboration with the new ai generative art bots. The goal is to create something insilico that is fresh and unique, and that might be prohibitively difficult to create in vivo.
We are a group of artists, designers and educators who work with traditional analog methods and with digital platforms to create our stories.

Printed in USA, first edition.
Busy Bear is collective work jointly authored by Ann Cutting and
Margi Denton, who selected, coordinated and arranged the text,
graphics, and images.
To create the illustrations in Midjourney, Ann relied on her artistic
skills and experience, authoring and submitting creative and
technical instructions to achieve her desired expression. Ann
selected, coordinated, and arranged iterative versions of each
illustration, incrementally refining each work in Midjourney to
create a final version for publication.
Ann and Margi initially generated the text in ChatGPT, then
selected, coordinated, arranged, and otherwise edited the text
to create a final version for publication.
Margi designed the book, collaborating with Ann to further select,
coordinate and arrange the illustrations, graphics and text.
The authors recognize and appreciate the millions of creators
of the billions of works on which Midjourney and ChatGPT were
trained.
The printing of this edition was generously funded by a grant from ArtCenter College of Design.
