Dynamics Style Transfer, (2017)
Through the use of Artificial Intelligence, a computational model (Convolutional Neural Network) is trained to learn the motion patterns of the waterfall (top-center) and the textural appearance of the waterfall painting (top-left) in order to synthesize a merged result (top-right and bottom) which consists of the appearance of the waterfall painting and the motion of the waterfall. Thus bringing the still image to life.
