2001: A Picasso Odyssey
Posted on Tue 21 June 2016
Introduction
‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ rendered in the style of Picasso using deep neural network based style transfer. The cubist style had mixed results in the transfer; you can see that big empty blocks of colour didn’t map coherently between the frames. It screened at the 'Another Hole In The Head Film Festival' in 2017 where it received the Audience Award for Best Art/Experimental Film.
The film
The film has been viewed nearly 200,000 times, and was a significant foray into the creative use of neural style transfer for video; coverage of the film ranged from technical publications to art-focused blogs.
