ganlive-lichen
ganlive-lichen is a 3072×2048 FastGAN trained on 5,469 of my photographs. Play it in your browser with WebGPU, by hand, with MIDI, or from drums. Nothing to install: it downloads once and runs on your graphics card.
ganlive
ganlive explores a GAN's latent space in real time, with dials derived automatically and played by hand, with MIDI, or from drums. It plays FastGAN and StyleGAN2 models.
Use
Open the player in a browser with WebGPU, such as a current
Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari, and choose lichen. It plays engine/program.json and
engine/weights.bin from this repository, which ganlive convert wrote from lichen.pt.
To play it in ganlive's desktop app instead, install it as its user guide describes, then:
uv run --no-sync hf download gustavecortal/ganlive-lichen --local-dir runs/lichen
uv run --no-sync ganlive play --checkpoint runs/lichen --console --no-audio --no-midi
Model
- Architecture: FastGAN with a 256-wide latent, output at 3072×2048 (3:2).
- Training: gantrain.
- Speed: on a $350 Intel Arc A770, 87 fps in Edge, and 104 fps in the desktop app shown at 1620×1080.
- Sibling: ganlive-amber, trained on the same photographs at 1536×1024. It is lighter and faster.
Training data
5,469 of my own photographs of places, objects and textures.
