Abstract prompts in Midjourney explained with examples

A long thread with lot's of examples and prompts exploration
 
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis refers to the transformation/distortion of traditional Euclidean geometry into unconventional and dynamic shapes which results in visually captivating compositions

I wanted to see what output I'd get if I prompt the words separately
 
Non-Euclidean --ar 3:4

Non-Euclidean --ar 3:4Non-Euclidean --ar 3:4metamorphosis --ar 3:4metamorphosis --ar 3:4

Seeing this I wasn't surprised of what came next when I used the words together

And for the sake of the experiment, I've added

--style raw

to get less opinionated results
 
Non-Euclidean --ar 3:4 --style raw

I wanted to bring back the human element in the composition, so adding "editorial shot" in the prompt produced some nice results

Spiced some of those by using the chaos parameter in the prompt
 
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, editorial shot --ar 3:4

Knowing the above, I was curious what results I'll get by expanding the prompt with different styles

My first pick was "abstract deconstructionism"
 
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, editorial shot, abstract deconstructionism --ar 3:4

Then, "Holographic Impressionism"

One of the results looked quite similar to the "ethereal" prompts I shared the other day so adding it to the prompt produced some dreamy output
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, Holographic Impressionism --ar 3:4

At this point, I wanted to move further on and see if I'd be able to get more minimalistic results
 
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, minimalism --ar 3:4

Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...

The previous results kind of reminded me of @Macbaconai's style, so I wanted to see how combining the prompts would work out
 
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, minimalistic figuration, in the style of pale yellow and peach, finely rendered textures, muted seascapes, realistic usage of light and color, matte photo --ar 3:4

Moving further and transitioning to exterior, I got some oddly satisfying results and even reflections when adding "exterior photography"

@WorldEverett perhaps you'd enjoy exploring further
 
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, exterior photography --ar 3:4

Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...

Of course, I had to give it a try and explore how it would fit to a humanoid creature
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, humanoid --ar 3:4

At the time I was compiling the thread @HBCoop_ shared a prompt part of which stuck with me
 
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis of Sierpinski triangle fractal, editorial shot --ar 3:4

Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...Non-Euclidean metamorphosis...
Also, I'm scared of dolls but @saana_ai's recent porcelain dolls looked so pretty
Non-Euclidean metamorphosis, portrait photo, porcelain doll, symmetrical --ar 3:4

My Non-Euclidean ones turned creey 😆
