Myriad (Tulips)
This piece is the training set - the information given to the algorithm from which it learns - that was used to create the work, Mosaic Virus (presented in the exhibition). Ten thousand, or a myriad, of photos of tulips were taken over the course of tulip season and each has been categorised by hand, revealing the human aspect that sits behind machine learning.
