Very cool. I work from home in my basement and would enjoy such a device. Any plans to sell them? Or know of similar devices? I could probably build one, but most likely would end up in pieces next to my other random projects…

No, I currently have no plan to sell it. There's a lot of overhead involved when selling stuff, and I mostly enjoy building stuff like this :)

The installation is impressive but the output is underwhelming. Then again, I feel the same about the pieces in most contemporary art museums.

He just needs a higher resolution screen, a screen that is much bigger, and placed inside of very nice frame. With the cables hidden.

Then it's ready for the gallery.

Especially if you could come up with a way to filter out some of the images that look too much like how a random broken monitor will output.

This image in particular feels like "real" art to me. https://imgur.com/gaJVSs3

it's okay as it is -- IF, and only IF, the artist says so !

Rauschenberg too, as well as Lichtenstein and many others, wouldn't have liked it a bit being turned into some hotair egomaniac 0-creative wraped in plastic in some fin-groupies Schnabel'oesque or Koons'ian gallery spot

I just finished my latest project, building an AI art installation at home, generating 100 % unique artworks on the fly. Just push the button below the screen and another one will be displayed. When the button has been pushed, the old artwork is deleted and can't be retrieved again. Setup: * An Nvidia Jetson Xavier NX was used for all logic, machine learning inference, art kiosk GUI etc. * A StyleGAN was used to gene…

This is really cool! I'd love to seed the GAN with my own artwork and generate new pieces in my style
