10. Deep Dream Generator
Google’s Deep Dream Generator claims it can transform images into stylized works of art. The main feed of images on the site does make it seem very evocative, but of course, it’s not exactly easy to make an image of young Skip appear as more than just a dog with a Photoshop filter on.
I put young Skip in the style of Pieter Bruegel, the famed Dutch artist behind works like The Blind Leading the Blind. It came out… okay. I tried it with a mandala pattern, and it was… interesting. I then added a Salvador Dali painting to the style, and it came out boring.
It’s a fun tool, but I feel like I’m playing with a sophisticated color-in-the-lines book rather than generating any real art.
