Using Stylegan to age everyone in 1985's hit video "Cry"

Shardcore (previously) writes, "I took Godley & Creme's seminal 1985 video and sent it through a StyleGAN network."


Every time I see a GAN face morph, it makes me think of the Godley & Creme video, so I decided to see what would happen if the two met.


I split the Cry video into its constituent frames and asked the network to try and produce a portrait of each one.


I then asked it to produce a slightly older version of the same face. Often this seems to involve adding a pair of glasses.


Each frame of the video is a portrait 'painted' by the network. The output influenced by all that it has experienced before.


Cry, but everyone's a bit older [Shardcore]
