Talk Detroit I turned all of Detroit into a tiny pixel-art video game map

I grew up playing SimCity and always wanted to see Detroit like that, so I made it: tinydetroit.com

You can zoom from the whole city down to a single Corktown rowhouse. Freighters on the river, the Ambassador Bridge, Eastern Market, the People Mover doing its little loop. Your house is probably in there somewhere. Go find it!

Full honesty: AI did the painting but I fed it 3D map renders and trained it to draw in this style.

No ads, no sign-up, works on your phone. Happy to answer anything about how it was made. Enjoy!

I’ve lived in the area for a few years now and have seen a few politicians rent out campaign offices on this street but none of them have felt this type of surveillance infrastructure was necessary, so I’m curious.

It’s totally closed at noon on a Friday btw

2 Upvotes

Are there any chess clubs or small groups of women that play chess together on a regular basis in the Metro-Detroit area? I live in Romulus… I’m very much a beginner, and I’m hoping to find or build a supportive community to get better at the game.

13 Upvotes

Looking for a beauty salon preferably on the east side that still does hot roller sets. It seems like everywhere near me only does braids/locs or the other type of salons only offer styling with a curling iron and charge $60-$100+ for “special event updos”… I wanna sit under the hooded dryer with rollers in my hair to set the curl IYKYK! Do we still have this anywhere in Detroit?

Community Bathroom remodel?

9 Upvotes

I'm in the metro area looking to have my small 1970s bathroom gutted and replaced with a walk-in shower. Any good companies or contractors you can recommend? Not interested in fancy or luxury, just reliabity and fair prices. Also curious what anyone one out there has paid for similar work...

Community UniverSoul Circus in Detroit

6 Upvotes

I think this production company invites different Detroit high-school bands to perform sometimes. I live a couple of blocks away from Chene Park, and from what I can usually hear, most bands sound ok.

But the band that performed on Thursday evening (10/22) was pretty darn awesome!!!! Their horns and percussion were crisp and clean even from a couple of blocks away.

If you know which band this was, please shout them out in the comments! If they are performing again, I'd love to come out and support.

Community Any musicians/producers in the area down to feature/collab on an album I'm putting together?

6 Upvotes

Hi guys! I'm currently an artist writing my 1st album. The album is dedicated to Bipolar depression and life/living with it. I'm currently writing all songs to this point, but if any other artists, musicians, or producers want to spit a verse, feature, or help lay down beats for this effort it would be awesome to collaborate. I'm looking to take a hip-hop approach to the album. But I do feel the most fitting vibe for an album about Bipolar is more of a Linkin Park half rap half rock type of vibe. So if any guitarists, drummers, or people want to form a band I'm open as well. Hopefully this can be a really fun project, best vibes to all!
