Creative Applications of Machine Learning –
A Hands-On Workshop on the Web (for {Absolute} Beginners)
This is a repository with all the code and materials for the online dai workshop on 17 September 2020, 10am - 2pm.
This workshops draws heavily on the friendly open source projects ml5.js and p5.js, which you should check out.
A special and big shoutout to Yining Shi who developed many of the materials provided here. The curriculum of this workshop was heavily inspired by Yining's introductiory course on Bots and Machine Learning at the School of Machines in the summer of 2019 and her Machine Learning for the Web's class at ITP in New York.
