Fof (also known for his EFF DST IDM project) founded the band in 2005 in Minsk. He was later joined by Xev and Taelih. Previously Xev was the vocalist of the Belorussian metal band Vicious Crusade.
At the end of 2007, local label Machinist Records released their debut album Wired Tunes as a very limited edition. After a few weeks, Diffuzion signed with Belgium's Alfa Matrix label whose A&R Manager had discovered the band while he was visiting the Side-Line magazine office.
In 22 April 2008, Diffuzion re-released their debut album with a new title, Bodycode, and additional tracks. It was issued in two versions: standard edition and a double-CD carton box edition including a bonus disc with exclusive songs and remixes.
In January 2011, the band premiered a new song, "DBD (While You Can)".

Diffuzion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lost in a velvet maze - really bad
Want to find your way - use your pain
It's not really time to die in vain
I can feel the same thrill in you
I know what you want, I want it too
You've come not too late - join the game
Don't choose where to go, just hear my voice
Turn round, now you're in - it was your choice
You know what I want, you want it too
I can feel the same thirst in you
You have got my faith, prove me now
You can be the best, show me how
You know that the rules can't be wrong
No chance to escape you must go on
The lyrics to Diffuzion's song Join the Game portray a message of initiation and acceptance into the unknown world of substance X. The first line sets the stage for an altered state of mind, guided by this substance that is causing the individual to feel lost and trapped in a velvet maze, which is described as "really bad." However, the lyrics suggest that pain can be used as a tool to find one's way out. The message here is that success and redemption can come from facing challenges and overcoming them, rather than giving up and dying in vain.
The chorus of the song emphasizes a sense of unity between the lead vocalist and the listener, suggesting that they both seek the same type of thrill and fulfillment. The invitation to join the game suggests that this is an initiation into a secret society, where the rules are still the same from the point of view of someone who has already been initiated. The singer implies that they have faith in the listener, that they have what it takes to excel at this game, and that the rules cannot be wrong. The only way out is to go on, as there is no escape from the lifestyle once someone has started.
Overall, the lyrics to Join the Game are full of symbolism and metaphors that suggest an initiation into a lifestyle where things may be uncertain and challenging, but the rewards are worth it. The message is to embrace the unknown, use one's pain as a tool of growth, and not give up in the face of adversity.

Would it be possible to also use this to create comic books?
If AI were to be used for comic books, it needs to be able to repeat the same characters & backgrounds in different scenes throughout the story. They have to be the same characters & backgrounds, not just similar ones.
It needs to be able to represent the characters & backgrounds in different ways, such as from different angles, different lighting conditions, and in different poses.
It also needs to be able to combine characters & backgrounds together to create images according to the prompts. I think it would be too difficult to constantly join characters & backgrounds together using Photobashing, as it’s not easy to properly match up the lights & shadows. Plus comics have a lot of panels, and it would be too much to try to Photobash everything.
The AI also needs to have characters interacting with each other, and pose them together (e.g., such as two characters from the story sharing a hug). Both characters need to be placed within one of the backgrounds chosen for the story.
It also needs to be possible to change the facial expressions of the characters.
To sum up, comics repeat the same characters & backgrounds many times throughout the story, and the main feature for comics would be the ability of the AI to repeat these same characters & backgrounds, while being able to follow verbal prompts on what needs to happen in each scene.
If these things ever become possible when using AI, then that’s when I think we might be able to effectively use AI for creating comic books/manga.
I think your use of AI for designing games is interesting, and it got me thinking that maybe comics might also become possible at some point.
Thank you for sharing 😊

Really cool. I also like your take on AI. We are living at the dawn of a new batch of creators that will take us to frontiers we never even dared dreaming off.

I didn't expect you to ever do anything better than your metroidvania amazing video but this one is even better !
AginoGaming
I think the hard part is to make the same character with different expressions
Neon
train a hyper network
Loth
@AginoGaming Really?? Hmm, I don't think I saw it.
AginoGaming
@Loth you want to know something funny, people are selling visual novel on steam using AI and you can see its make from ai i guess do espression is not easy
Loth
@AginoGaming Expressions would not be too hard, just inpaint. The harder part is getting different poses, because if you inpaint, say, the arms, with high denoising the clothes might change with it, but if you set the denoising strength too low to keep the clothes the same, then the pose of the arms won't change.
