Wednesday, January 31 | 12 noon - 1 p.m. | Online - Zoom Register » Organizer(s): Meganne Masko and Presenter(s): Asli Narin
The Faculty Crossing presents an online Teach Talk on Wednesday, January 31, from 12 noon to 1 p.m. with visual artist and educator, Asli Narin. Asli is this year’s Herron Faculty Teaching Resident. Asli will discuss how image-making and book-making can help students express themselves creatively, budget-friendly, and efficiently without having professional knowledge of photography and design. Asli will also share how creating photobooks teaches conceptual thinking, visual literacy, curation, and design skills. Photobook is an excellent medium for interdisciplinary understanding since images, text, drawings, and other 2D mediums can be present at the same time coherently. It is a medium that can be easily implemented in art or non-art major courses to express ideas or research with visual narrative.

While AI has been in development, and use, for years, it took a giant leap forward in November of 2022 with OpenAI’s release of ChatGPT to the public.

Greg Lutz from Marian University will be presenting. Register for the session on Monday, February 19 at 2 p.m. EST.
