This project aims to explore and discuss the combination of CCTV surveillance and machine learning. It invites audiences to consider this new paradigm in surveillance techniques by using cameras to detect and capture faces and process them in a deep learning Generative Adversarial Network.
This network creates ‘monster’ images from their faces, suggesting how we are all at risk of being made monstrous by these technologies.
