Google Draw Something!

Use Google’s drawing game to create art and have Google guess what it is! You will be given 6 items to draw and in under 20 seconds Google will try to answer it. Go to https://quickdraw.withgoogle.com/ and start right away. In the end, share your art on twitter with the rest of the class.

I made these six doodles. A neural network guessed five of them correctly.

BEHIND THE SCENES

I chose this particular assignment from the assignment bank because it looked really fun! I love drawing, especially doodling, and I thought it would be a unique and interesting challenge to try and draw things identifiable in under 20 seconds. In some ways I really struggled, as you can see with those grapes, but in some I really excelled, like with the ceiling fan!

It goes to show that I will take any excuse to draw, and I will take any challenge that looks fun to me. This not only helped me flex my muscles, but helped me tackle doodles more strategically while under a time-limit.
