Poetize Your Images

We (vibe-)tested a project from FWBuilders Alpha Cohort member Alex called Photo Poet. This vibe-coded web app allows you to poetize an image by generating poems from image URLs. Naturally, we generated poems for three image URLs from our FEST25 website (tickets are $99, btw!). We’re into it.

Check out more builder outputs from the FWBuilders Alpha Cohort on our Arena channel. Including recent Substacks from cohort members Forrest Mortifee, “Deep-Faking my most Authentic Self” and Sound of Fractures, “A Vibe Coding Story: The FWB Creative Builders Cohort Week 1.”
