On March 7, 2024, the Rubenstein School Inclusive Arts Initiative hosted a talk and panel discussion with Dr. Jenn Karson<\/a>, a Lecturer in the Art and Art History program, Director of the UVM FabLab, and founder of the Art + AI Research Group at UVM. Dr. Karson uses scientific processes and technologies as creative catalysts. Through her work, experiments, and data sets, she challenges traditional concepts of artistic authorship and human-machine collaboration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The presentation focused on intersections between environmental data science and art. The panel discussion included Lauren Cresanti with the UVM Spatial Analysis Lab, Olivia Welford ’24 Computer Science and Studio Art double major, and Maya Griffith, a Computer Science graduate student. The two student panelists are working with Dr. Karson on the use of artificial intelligence and technology in art, data science, and environmental healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
