Thought Experiments

This 2019 project was created with the use of Artificial Intelligence: the GAN algorithm (Generative Adversarial Network) is a learning program capable of mixing and comparing different images, producing its own original visual product. This is the very first ever successful attempt bringing AI into fashion moving imagery. Although following a mathematical structure, the results are unpredictable, random, and abstractly beautiful, just like a chemical reaction, or the growth of a flower. We allow an electronic machine to learn how to recognize the human shape, the clothing they wear, and independently create an organic flow of images, starting from a rational thought, and ending in a visual and aesthetically pleasant chaos. More than AI, it would be best to call it “ACI”: Artificial Creative Intelligence.
