Yesterday’s trenchant sculpture in front of MIT’s Green Building was quickly removed by the authorities. It would have deserved to be seen by more people to fuel the ongoing discourse.

Thrilled to share our HuMetricsHSS report, which draws on 123 interviews & builds on years of collaborative work. In examining current evaluation systems, the report highlights ways to recognize labor, invest in many kinds of scholarly work, & better align practices with values.

Today there are hundreds of different AI tools for artistic creation spread around Internet - but no easy mechanism to see and use them together. Phygital+ studio created "AI Library" - a directory that lists 300+ such tools #AIart #dalle2 #midjourney library.phygital.plus

Terrific final project presentations by students yesterday in my “Extending the Museum” and “Visual Histories” classes. Very rewarding conclusion of my 30-year teaching career at MIT in MIT Comparative Media Studies/Writing and MIT Global Languages. It’s been an amazing journey, thanks to many incredible students.
