Autoimage Self-Organizing Self Portraits
Posted: March 1, 2005 Filed under: development, experimental Comments OffAutoimage is a self-organizing self-portrait.
Based on a model of how the brain learns to recognize faces, each pixel in an Autoimage portrait learns where it belongs in the image as a whole based on the activity of the pixels around it.
Autoimage brings the age-old medium of the portrait into the era of the network. Self-organizing portraits respond to the modern metaphor of life as the sum of complex interactions among many small independent agents.
