The First Sparks of Artificial Creativity

This series of thirty two unique portraits is a collaboration between myself, a graffiti artist and my robots. These images began with my robots using neural network to attempt to imagine unique faces. Inspiration from myself and the artist 3D (Robert Del Naja of Massive Attack) then directed a variety of other AI algorithms to paint the imagined faces with a brush on canvas. Details of the entire process, which used my direction, 3D's vision, multiple neural nets, dozens of AI algorithms, and feedback loops at all levels can be seen at https://www.cloudpainter.com/blog/3d.
