Lecture 6: Machine Learning 2

What I'm going to talk about today:

1. Introduce Francesca Gavin.
2. Brief: letting your computer learn.
3. Crit: letting your computer learn.
4. Bonus: one more thing...

1. Introduce Francesca Gavin.

• Writer, editor and curator based in London
• Editorial.
• Books.
• Broadcasting.
• Exhibition.
• Consulting.

2. Brief: letting your computer learn.

• In your pairs, what do you want your computer to learn?
• About what is inside images?
• About the style of images?
• About the movement of humans?
• See this great playlist by Daniel Shiffman: "A Beginner's Guide to Machine Learning with ml5.js".
• See this list of AI Experiments from Google.
• Also see the Machine Learning 4 Artists (ML4A) website by Gene Kogan.
• All works should be published on the brand new p5.js Web Editor if possible, but local copies are ok - make sure you email me the complete zip if you just work locally!

3. Crit: letting your computer learn.

• Present your work in pairs.
• We will crit the work as a group.
• What works? What doesn't? Why? What would you add? What would you take away?

4. Bonus: one more thing...

• Do you remember the Rubber Duck debugging technique?
• As a thank you present, I thought it would be useful to get you a rubber duck to talk to!
• Thanks for being such a great group.

Thanks!
