Latest project from @mario-klingemann employs Neural Networks trained on a collection of archive footage to recreate videos using the dataset.
It is confirmed that no human intervention has occured in the processed output, and it is interesting where there are convincing connections between the two (and where there apparently are none):
Destiny Pictures, Alternative Neural Edit, Side by Side Version
This movie has been automatically collaged by an neural algorithm using the movie that Donald Trump’s gave as a present to Kim Jong Un as the template, replacing all scenes with visually similar scenes from public domain movies found in the internet archive.
Neural Remake of “Take On Me” by A-Ha
An AI automatically detects the scenes in the source video clip and then replaces them with similar looking archival footage. The process is fully automatic, there are no manual edits.
Neural Reinterpretation of “Sabotage” by the Beastie Boys
An AI automatically detects the scenes in the source video clip and then replaces them with similar looking archival footage.
There are other video examples at Mario’s YouTube page (but some may not be viewable due to music copyright.
If you follow Mario’s Twitter timeline, you can get updated with the latest examples, and follow the evolution of the project [link]
