Who’s that?

Both come from The Very Pulse of the Machine, a beautiful episode of Netflix’s Love, Death and Robots. All episodes are effectively unrelated so you can watch in any order. The upper one is from the first minute. Nobody seems to have uploaded it above FullHD but you can just pirate the episode in 4K and snapshot any frame you want.

Of course, what they call “camera” might be a high-res spectrometer, plus there may be stacking, tiling, digital optics correction etc. However, the camera did capture a visible-light picture so it has a “natural” interpretation (you can convert it into a “human POV”) and this is not that. It probably does not even convey extra information (such as exact wavelengths our cones cannot distinguish) so it’s akin to just using a solarization filter on a normal color CMOS camera photo.

Germany?

Hate to break it to you but from what I can tell this was captured with JunoCam, a visible-light camera. So an “unaltered” version would have familiar colors, and this is already edited.

There are specialized machines for this that resemble industrial vacuum cleaners but even bigger. Cleaned balls are bagged and get poured back once the floor and walls are sanitized. Do the operators keep track of when this was last done? Yes, and they aren’t proud of it so you won’t see cleaning logs hanging nearby like at most mall toilets.

Also, half of the QR code is filler (notice the repeating pattern), it could have been much smaller.

Yeah, I only realized that once you posted it.

(That is a statement of fact, not judgement)

Rearrange, not rescale, which would be neccessary for a non-multiple-of-8 tile size. I originally thought it was ¾ size (12×12), which would need to shift graphics data to cram 2 virtual tiles into 3 physical ones. Of course, scaling would also look terrible, everything needs to be hand-drawn.

Tbh, well-scripted and curated AI horror scenes make for decent use of the technology that is too uncanny for much else. Of course, stunts like these drive more investment into something that can be used for a lot of evil slop.
