Abstract

How can we work in collaboration with artificial intelligence to make art? GANs stand at an important intersection between art and computer science and are an incredible tool for art-making and making artificial intelligence palatable to a wider audience. This past summer I explored StyleGAN, a style-based Generative Adversarial Network, and how I could use it as a tool for art creation. Using a model trained on breast cancer cells and a data set of over 5,000 unique geometric images I was able to create some incredibly interesting and organic pieces.
