This is a piece of art created by Artificial Intelligence.
The original was a photograph taken of the Penny School which has had a process called style transfer applied
The AI model has learned how to produce art in the style of several gothic artists and then applied that style to create a completely new artwork.
The picture above is the result of the application of AI style transfer to a photograph of an iconic Maldon building.
The BSA Motorcycles Owners association operates the All British Motorcycle Rally each year and as part of the rally rides from Newstead to Maldon for the day.
This year over 1000 people attended and a sea of British motorcycles, mostly historical and vintage, filled Main Street at Maldon.
Today people stopped to view the massive display of bikes. Riders stopped in at local cafes and the bakery for lunch. Visitors not expecting the rally looked bemused or amazed at how many motorcycles filled the street.
The BSA Motorcycle Owners Association has run the All British Rally annually since 1977. This years event is to be held again in Newstead, Victoria, at the Old Newstead Racecourse. Owners and aficionados of British Motorcycles, their families and friends are all welcome at the All British Rally.
Here are some photos from the event today. Thanks to everyone who attended and brought Main Street to life.
