When you hear words like motherboard, neural networks, and keyboard, I’d be willing to bet that “art” is not the first word that comes to mind.

Sotheby’s Contemporary Art Day Auction on 6 March features a unique creation by artist Mario Klingemann. Memories of Passersby I is a machine installation that uses neural networks to generate an infinite stream of portraits.
