In this video, I use the AI systems Ganbreeder and GANtools to create psychedelic morphing animations. A generative adversarial network (GAN) is a class of machine learning systems
This video is NOT sponsored. I really wanted to try out the software and see what interesting things we could make. 🙂
Use Ganbreeder:

So many things are labeled psychedelic that aren't. This is. Thanks.
90 s soft
Thanks!
Thanks dude i like your work!
I'm not able to make it work on Mac… I tried almost everything but I'm not very confident with terminal…
Can someone help me?
how i can put my own pictures in artbreeder?
Tried for a couple hours today to get it working. Finally installed and can run it but it hangs on… Loading bigGAN…
Loading BigGAN module from: https://tfhub.dev/deepmind/biggan-512/2
Still working for anyone?
Anyone have problem when they pick their keys where it doesn't work?
I don't get it how to install the gantools, can anybody help me please ? 🙂

Hey Ben, do you know anything about the problem with this kind of animations right now? I was capable of doing many, but recently, when I start CMD and run the code, it just won't let me generate the animation anymore. I'm pretty sad about it, hope you or someone who's reading this knows anything about it!
Guys I think that I found a way if that can help for OS :
 You need to install another version of Phython. It doesn't work with the latest version. You can keep both version it won't crash on your terminal
1. Install Gitlab and keep it on the folder. Do throw it to the BIN.
2. Install Phython 3.6 – 64bits
Mac OS X 64-bit/32-bit installer
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.0/python-3.6.0-macosx10.6.pkg
Open you terminal, next to your username copy and paste from the Gitlab link :
pip install git+https://gitlab.com/Vee9ahd1/gantools
change the sentence :
pip install git+https://gitlab.com/Vee9ahd1/gantools
to :
pip3 install git+https://gitlab.com/Vee9ahd1/gantools
The terminal will collect argparse and download everything from python (you need Tensorflow). If you don't downgrade the version of your Python version it will never find tensorflow from GANtools.
2 or 3 min later, you'll have to accept to download a program.
Accept
At the end you should see :
Successfully installed GANtools-0.3.0
PART II :
GANBREEDER is now called ARTBREEDER

Voila 🙂 cheers from France and thank you @benmarriot 😀
hello i have attempted to do this but when i got to pasting the code into the command line it said "common not found" i didn't see any typos? doing this on mac do u know what i can do to fix this ;…0
Hi Ben, great intro to GAN. I just checked out the updated Artbreeder site and you can pay to seemingly upload images. Curious but have you tried this yet as I've just paid for this option but there doesn't actually seem to be an upload facility. I can only use pre-processed images. Would like to create truly custom animations. Any tips would be appreciated.
Seems like this doesn't work anymore – I'm constantly getting the following error: "ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found."
Anyone have a solution?
The only struggle that I have is how to open an account ….. I already tried many times unfortunately I didn't succeed to open it. Cant open ganbreeder.app , this link doesn't work !!
Ganbreeder no longer available online!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tried opening URL keeps giving 404 error.
I just realized we're going in that bats asshole! Dafuq!
I can turn mario bros into Mario world
Im triying to make this work but after a lot of different errors im stuck with one that says "tensorflow/core/grappler/optimizers/dependency_optimizer.cc:697] Iteration = 1, topological sort failed with message: The graph couldn't be sorted in topological order."
Ty for the amazing video Btw
It’s kinda weird but freaking awesome 💙💙💙
