#TheFEN🌱 is a series of digital art drops to promote energy-efficient distributed marketplaces, led and curated by @jbibasse and @JoanieLemercier.

The first three artists, @zaidivecha @beesandbombs and @auriea, are featured here:

After an unexpectedly intense yet rewarding six months, today seems like a good day to officially end my sabbatical and come out of personal stealth mode! ✨ (Details in thread. 👇) [1/15]

Experimenting with using neural style for super-resolution, here a 4x enhance. Lots of edge cases still to catch, but first results are encouraging! #generative #computervision

One insight is the number of iterations: obviously, with more iterations the result looks better. Much more compute than you'd feel comfortable with by default!

Here are results at 160, 80, 40, and 20 iterations at each scale.

OK. I have figured it out—and the results are pretty INSANE. 🤯 (More in-depth analysis below after I celebrate a bit ;-) 🎉 #procjam #NeuralArt

These images are #generative, and it's beyond my expectations:

Mixed results for histogram matching, haven't found the right parameters. Needs an overnight run to explore more? 🌃

From worst to best, matching on: 1) logarithmic scale, 2) linear pre-activation, 3) rectified linear, 4) disabled.

First "HD" render at 1024x1024 worked great! Rotated the hue procedurally for an amazing effect... and also completely side stepping the color blending bug I found!

I still need to dig into that issue now though ;-)

(All layers together now, with tweaked weights...)

What makes neural style interesting is that it generalizes based on the patterns it sees. Here, the colors it picks are strange blends from the original image, but I love the diversity nonetheless! ✨

Example outputs of the Picasso drawing with more bias towards upper layers of the convnet (4x), then equalized, then bias towards lower layers (4x).

Interesting, but nothing like the original. Some insights forming!

Applying style transfer to Quake. Here's a concept I did applying fine art to single frames with Jackson Pollock, Pablo Picasso, Gustav Klimt.
