DESCRIPTION:

Independent and academic research into the future of design and AI.

OBJECTIVE:

Develop collaborative research ideas that merge the fields of design, information science, AI, and machine learning.

METHODS:

Graphic Design 573: New Information Environments was taught by Helen Armstrong, author of “Digital Design Theory”. The course emphasized design research, encouraged interdisciplinary engagement, participatory lectures and covered a wide range of emerging design methodologies at the intersection of human-computer interaction, graphic design, and computation.

RESULTS:

The document titled “Research Question Exercise” follows the process of refining broad personal interests and concepts into a coherent research question. The document titled “GD 573 | Week 06” is a collaborative presentation environment designed as part of a lecture I gave on interface design and the future of machine learning and computation.
