Artificial intelligence brought the freaky visuals to this music video

Hardcore Anal Hydrogen "Jean-Pierre" (2018, Apathia Records)

A loud experimental band from Monaco named Hardcore Anal Hydrogen enlisted the aid of artificial intelligence to generate the trippy, psychedelic visuals used in their music video for the track, “Jean-Pierre.”

On their site, the band details the ins and outs of how they manipulated Google Deep Dream, Neutral Style Transfer, and DeepFlow to get these results:

How the AI…works seems complicated but it’s not. There are 2 main steps : training, then exploiting. It’s the same thing than learning an object to someone, let’s say a chair. You show him many pictures of differents chairs. Then after learning it, when he’ll see a chair, he’ll be able to answer “it’s a chair”, even if it’s a new one he’s never saw.

Turn down the volume and open your eyes and minds.
