Painting with Fire: A History in GANs by Bard Ionson

Description

In a fierce dance, fire takes the form of Agni, the Hindu deity of fire, rising with primordial power, a reminder of technology's boundless potential and its echo in the myths of cultures worldwide, from the Arabian Ifrit to the Mayan Tohil. Channeling the fire myths of the world, Prometheus, the Phoenix, the gods of the sun and flame. A story of technology brought to humans; to myths of destruction and rebirth. To be immortal; to be a god; it is always a paradox of fire and technology. The morality of the fire is always in question but we desire it and fear it. And yet it has changed us, we have learned so much since we first touched fire. We used it to destroy the wood, smelt the metal and build the chip. And now we teach and show the fire what we know; what we create and our reflection is there telling us our faults. The GAN is but a single neuron in a blazing star; a greater fire is coming.
