Exploring using AI to peel back layers of reality on anonymized Street View captures revealing the surprising identities of the Argletonians. AI imagined reportage photography.

[Argleton Lane @ArgletonLane]

The idea came as a response to the Google Clips camera in 2018. It was a great idea, a camera that knew when to take a photograph. However it was trained on Google photos that were not very interesting. That is when we set out to change all that, a camera with attitude!

The best of Robot Jacqui’s images became part of the dataset we used to train our various GANS, which became part of the source to our first collection, 'Homes of Argleton Lane'.

I just wanted to introduce you to 'Robot Jacqui', who helped me find some of the Street View images that I used to train the GANs that created my first collection ‘Homes of Argleton Lane’.

I felt that some of the GANS captured the sadness around these once vibrant places slowly fading.

With Street View’s ability to “time travel”, I had a real sense of the changing socio-economic landscape of America as I witnessed the slow decline of these small charming towns.

Enjoying looking back at my first ever GAN experiments from 2020. They were trained on thousands of shops I captured in Street View from small towns in the USA.

FYI 'Argleton Lane' is the best way to get to fantasy (https://t.co/g1hhKjTHlP) from reality, or is it the other way around? https://t.co/ivkWpJa0ki

@unobus twice in 3 weeks 657 no show, poor show. Very cold feet.

i have totally nailed my “outdoor look”. Man on the St.Albans market cheese stall asked me if I am sleeping rough.
