This weekend I played with 3 things I ♥: machine learning, #generativeart, and the web.
Here's a small neural network running entirely in a #webgl GLSL shader that hallucinates thousands of new handwritten digits in real-time.
How so? 👇🧵
Introducing vixel, a #webgl voxel path tracer built with regl. It's a poor man's #magicavoxel in your browser for now, but I have big plans! Play with the editor here: https://t.co/FMWRbevLs8, do whatever you want with the code here: https://t.co/2VqgqP5Xok. #gamedev
For those curious, https://t.co/FAYJePAHlh uses a neural network I trained on choral pieces to generate the harmonization for your melody
(Bonus GIF: extra-wrinkly variation)
BREAKING NEWS Unable to ignore your incessant pleas any longer I agree to return to your ridiculous planet & seize leadership by any means--but under 1 condition: that you help me. If you agree retweet the $#!% outta this asking others to follow our revolution. The game is afoot!

Does anyone else care about this? Am I crazy for thinking that they really just used my network and are selling the results?
