His works consists of imaginative and unconventional combinations of inputs and outputs allowing people to e.g. play music using eye-movement, control games by making silly sounds or transforming drawings of musical instruments into real compositions.

Playful Machine Learning with ml5js and Runway

This playful workshop will work as a hands on introduction to machine learning with a focus on creating your own interactive applications that live on the web. Besides being a hands on introduction to simple artificial intelligence the workshop will cover how to : 

- Make interactive websites that can learn and react to user input from the webcam

- Train supervised machine learning algorithms in minutes 

- Use the friendly ml5js library that builds on top of Tensorflow.js as well as the more advanced software Runway

- Experiment with techniques like GANs and GPT

Requirements: Bring your own computer with a functional webcam and Google Chrome installed. 

Experience level: No prior coding or machine learning knowledge required.
