Together with Nadia Domide, we used Runway ML to (re-)train our own StyleGAN model on scraped Google Earth Imagery and generated 250 beautiful imaginary landscapes.
Me and Nadia Domide were inspired by the parody projects on thispersondoesnotexist.com, such as thisartworkdoesnotexist.com & thisworddoesnotexist.com — so we asked ourselves: Can we create places that don’t exist? Can AI dream up real presentations of unreal places? Can we generate imaginary landscapes? Long story short: yes, we can.
We used Runway ML (free software making Machine Learning accessible to artists and creatives) to (re-)train our own StyleGAN model on scraped Google Earth Imagery and generated 250 imaginary landscapes.
I wrote a Medium article about it here.
