Show HN: ML Art – A visual directory with creative machine learning projects (opens in new tab)

Hey, I'm Emil, a resident at the Google Arts & Culture Lab.

This project started as an endeavour to get an overview of what creators were doing at the intersection of creativity and machine learning.

I thought I was up to date with the latest, but my reference list kept growing and I realised I was unaware of many projects by the community.

Once I reached a few hundred, I thought it could be useful for others, so I turned my spreadsheet into a visual database with Spreadsimple.

Something missing? Just comment with a link to the project or portfolio below, and I'll review it.

More projects coming every week!!

There is a big gap before 2012. For examples, projects featured at Cybernetic Serendipity Music 1968 [1], and Harold Cohen's AARON [2]. Having that said, I'm not strictly sure if it belongs to machine learning.

I can tell that the machine learning community has evolved a visual aesthetic, e.g. GAN interpolations have created images I could not have imagined before.

Still, it's harder to see ML's impact on text generation and music. Does anyone have good examples of those or guides to understand this better?
