Google Creative Lab
Google Creative Lab is a team of designers, filmmakers, engineers and other creatives that collaborates with groups across the entire company to show the world the very best of Google. Over the years I've seen our work on stages, in the news, in politics, tattooed on bodies, and I've even helped commemorate Apollo 11 with an image visible from outer space.
We are behind some of Google's most iconic moments.
We have no official website, but every year we have the Creative Lab 5 program.
My role on this project was in engineering visualization tools simulating the 107,000 mirrors, enabling designers to iterate, this work is mentioned on Margaret Hamilton's wikipedia

Software Engineer at Google Creative Lab. A decade of engineering AI experiences used by millions. Designed with artists, researchers, and creative directors.
This philosophy of open-sourcing large-scale creative experiments is central to how Google Creative Lab approaches its work. Rather than letting the installation be a one-time artifact, we wanted to show how to use Chrome in a broader ecosystem of physical interactive displays.
Infinite Wonderland uses generative AI to create a unique retelling of Lewis Carrol's classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. It is part of our "Labs Sessions" series for Labs.google — the successor to Experiments with Google as Google's home for experimental AI. The project uses Google's StyleDrop as a fine-tuning technique on top of DeepMind's Imagen 2 to infinitely illustrate every sentence in the book. StyleDrop can learn a new style by fine-tuning very few trainable parameters (less than 1% of total model parameters), enabling a collaborative feedback loop between artists and our team at Google Creative Lab; I repeatedly trained new fine-tuned models to help shape our characters, iterating over rounds of creative feedback.
