I was a panelist with Asta Roseway, Mira Lane, Afroditi Psarra, and Blaise Agüera y Arcas in Seattle last week.  We had a stimulating discussion of issues at the nexus of AI and creative work. Thanks Microsoft and Design in Public for inviting me to participate.

I’m thrilled to have been awarded a YSU University Research Council Grant sponsoring a new version of A Machine for Living In, engaging with the lived conditions of abandoned housing in the city. Stay tuned!

I’m thrilled that we have been awarded a FY2018 Strategic Investment Funding grant from the YSU Budget Advisory Council  for Immersive Visualization and Collaborative Digital Work ($90k). This money will fund a 20-seat AR/VR lab on YSU campus for use by multiple departments to support new and existing curricula, including the nascent gaming program, and enable a vital new area of instruction and research on campus.

Co-authored with John Martin.

Our project Rover will be featured in the Special Screenings program of the Athens Digital Arts Festival (ADAF ’18) from May 24 to May 27 in Athens, Greece.

I’m sorry I can’t be there to join the project 🙂

On Thursday March 8 I successfully defended my dissertation at the University of Washington.

I’m thrilled that I was awarded a Research Professorship at YSU to develop a site-specific extension of my Machine for Living In project engaging abandoned housing in Youngstown, Ohio.
