This repository is a companion to a tutorial called "Creative AI for Visual Art and Music," presented at the SAAI Factory symposium. It serves as a central hub linking to presentation slides and interactive demos that show how artificial intelligence can be used to create visual art, animations, and music. Think of it as a curated list of hands-on starting points for exploring creative AI. The repo itself does not contain code directly. Instead, it links out to Google Slides and Google Colab notebooks, which are interactive documents where you can run AI code in your browser without needing to install anything. The demos cover a range of creative techniques: style transfer (applying one image's style to another), image generation, and music generation. There are also demos for animating static images and generating video from text prompts. The project references well-known text-to-image tools like DALL-E 2, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion. This collection would appeal to artists, musicians, hobbyists, or students curious about experimenting with generative AI but who may not want to set up complex coding environments. A founder or product manager exploring creative AI features could also use these demos to understand what is possible. Because each demo is a link to an interactive notebook, a beginner can simply click through and experiment with generating art or music. The README does not go into detail about the underlying technology or how the demos were built. It is purely a resource list. Its trade-off is simplicity over depth, it provides easy, clickable access to working demos but assumes you will explore the notebooks themselves to understand the mechanics behind each technique.
