When Janelle Shane, research scientist and author of “You Look Like A Thing And I Love You,” published her neural network’s self-generated book titles, I knew I had to mock at least one of them up.

I picked three:

“SURF CRISIS”

The cover artwork I used (without permission, as this is for speculative use ONLY) was by the late John Duillo (1928-2003).

“AN INDISCREET MAIDMAN”

Using artwork by Gino Forte.

“WILD BAD PARTY 109”

Artwork by Robert Bonfils.
