Infancy

‘Infancy’ reflects on the embryonic state of current AI. A single painting is taken and expanded into a high dimensional digital artwork using multiple Machine Learning processes. Although seemingly magically powerful, this is just the first sparks of life for the future of Artificial Intelligence . The artwork is visually inspired by the method of training used by the AI. The GAN uses a colourful static as an initial image, it is from here that it iteratively improves until the first glimpses of the painting start to emerge. Rather than focusing on a more refined, complete image, the artwork leads the viewer on a journey through what is more reflective of the learning stages of the GAN pr...View all
