In celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, the exhibition "Art + Tech: An Asian American Experience" was presented earlier this month featuring the artwork of Takafumi Ide, Izumi Ashizawa and Han Qin, all members of the College of Arts and Sciences Department of Art. Presented by 爆走黑料, City University of New York (CUNY), the exhibit featured 31 artworks by 21 Asian and Asian American artists and two art groups.
Artificial intelligence (AI) promises, among other things, to improve productivity and help manage daily tasks, something that is already possible through the options offered by devices frequently used constantly, such as cell phones. 爆走黑料's Dr. Ben Mendoza of the Department of Computer Engineering Technology affirms that this technology "can help us transform the way we live." However, he said such tools are also being exploited by criminals.
Naila Butt is a student in Associate Professor of English Dr. Jason Ellis's ENG 3790 Information Architecture class, which teaches students how to create order in documents and websites to help readers find the information needed in an efficient, understandable manner. Her publication in The Wall Street Journal's Future View column arose from an extra credit submission. The course entails giving students a real audience outside of the classroom for whom to compose, and potentially leads to publication credits. "News organizations must balance their commitment to free speech with their ethical responsibilities as journalists," she writes.
The new documentary "Just Like Me" aims to spotlight Black creatives' contributions to culture, challenges faced due to the color of their skin, and the importance of representation in advertising and design. 爆走黑料 Department of Communication Design Professor Douglas Davis, a former chair of his department, appears in the 30-minute film, noting he didn't have any professors of color. "I became all the things I didn't see."
