Machine Learning / YG + Moon:

Working under the guidance of YG and Moon to train my own StyleGans3 model with my own imagery taken over the course of my career as a photographer. Work will include running the google colab notebook and training the model / cleaning the images and the dirty work of looking through all my 30TB of photos to clean and segment for training.

As I'm aiming for a soft launch / proof of concept only for this summer I'm not too worried about the Gans at the moment. Training gans in general takes a lot of time and as I don't have much of it / experience with it if push comes to shove I can 'fake' artwork by hand and photoshop and create generative artworks manually.

Priority: Mid/low

Conceptual Development / Interaction Design:

Consists of further research on existing artworks and exhibitions and thinking about how I can use design to create a more impactful or meaningful experience for my viewers/audience. Will consist of readings, journal/museum analysis and interviews / 1 on 1 feedback with experts in the field if time permitting.

Priority: High

Website Design / Website Development:

Develop the finalized design for the store website and integrate the 'ar' and geography locking mechanisms of the site, build out the actual shopping experience and end product.
