neural trans

Neural Transitions

Create trippy interpolations based on your own footage.

Many categories

Use up to 1000 base categories of objects and living beings to feed your creation with.
1000 categories

interpolation classes

Latent interpolation

Interpolate between different objects in the latent space of the neural network and discover the hidden relation of things.

Loopable

All generations are fully loopable. You can even use custom noise maps to drive the randomness of your creations.
loopable

class mixing

Object fusion

Fuse images from different categories to create weird new objects

Abstract art

Modify your creations with several parameters to discover the abstract corners of the neural network.
