Agenda

During this workshop, you'll explore two approaches to Style Transfer, a technique that blends the style of an image with the content of another. You'll create beautiful artwork like this:

Created using Magenta

Created using Fast Style Transfer

As time remains, you'll also gain experience writing a basic TensorFlow program. We'll work with (you guessed it) handwritten digits. That said, our main goal is to get you started exploring Style Transfer - because - it's awesome.

Good olde MNIST

Installation instructions

Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for you to participate in the workshop.

You can either bring a laptop, or you may use a loaner Chromebook we provide on site. Either way, please install the software you need in advance (either on your laptop, or, by preparing a Cloud VM) as described in these instructions.

The easiest way is to use a Docker image we provide.

Option 1: Use our Docker image on your laptop

If you are bringing a laptop and want to install everything you need locally, please see these instructions to learn how to install and use the Docker image on your laptop.

Option 2: Use our Docker image in the Cloud

If you are using a loaner Chromebook, or prefer to work in the Cloud, please see these instructions to learn how to configure a Cloud-based VM, and how to install and use the Docker image on it.

Option 3: Install TensorFlow directly on your laptop

If you are an experienced developer and prefer not to use Docker, you may install the libraries you need manually.

Exercise instructions
