An artist friend of mine is using this technology in an interesting way .. she's drawing regular street portraits of people she meets, and then using that as the seed to generate new pictures of people who do not exist. It has produced some extraordinarily disturbing art, especially for those of us who were her subjects. Some of the images are so wild and out there, it really is an adventure into ones own psyche. I see so much in the generated images that creates an intense emotional response, and its very difficult to differentiate between the lines of the artist and the lines of the code, at least in a way that is easily discernible. Her art as the seed definitely amplifies things - the emotions of eyes, the despair of cheeks and lips - in a way that the generative programming enhances, 1000x .. Very interesting stuff, and I'm looking forward to her exhibit of this work - especially the live demonstrations.
