Welcome to our class website. You’ll be authoring your own blog posts here for your Rabbit Hole Assignments. One of the cool things about wordpress is you can categorize posts to help organize them. I will categorize my posts as “Announcements” and I will ask you to categorize yours as either “Rabbit Hole #1” or […]
We are in our last week of classes! And it is in the 80s outside! (didn’t it snow last week? . . .LOL). Monday we will be wrapping up class with a Guest Speaker (Alessandro Acquisti — whose article is in Canvas for your to read). We will do weekly news and discussion after he […]
I suspect many of you are sensing the near end of the semester. Congratulations! You’ve made it (and it’s May 1 on Thursday). I have your feedback from the survey and will review that and how we will progress through our May 10th final exam period / Rabbit Hole #2 presentations. On Monday night we […]
Happy Sunday to all! For tomorrow’s class we begin our 3 week adventure into infrastructure with a focus on cyber-security and net neutrality. (fyi — if the net neutrality link wasn’t working for you, here it is: https://amt-lab.org/blog/2018/1/why-net-neutrality-matters-for-the-arts ) Other laws exist that provide access rights / protection to the internet / from bad actors […]

Our class will begin with an explanation of how our Rabbit Hole due date / presentations / feedback loops will run on April 12 and see if there are any overarching questions. (REMINDER: NO CLASS APRIL 5) Then we […]
Monday we will review the 3 major forms of Artificial Intelligence, discuss algorithms, web / data scraping and machine learning (not always linked) and review our hands on that is due next week (as is the Review / Analysis assignment if you didn’t turn it in on the 8th or any day prior). We will […]
This week we move from AI and artistic creation to Artificial Intelligence’s most obvious form: robots and their digital friends “bots” (chat bots etc). In fact, the next Hands On focuses on chatbots as a fun activity. Your first ‘larger’ assignment is due the 8th (or 23rd) as well. The review assignment is designed to […]
Good day! I hope those in the northeast are safe as we are getting a lot of pre-spring rain and floods. This week we begin our adventures into Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI and AI Art are starting to disrupt our industries and our lives in many ways (from Deepfakes to intentional CGI, for instance). The […]
Greetings! I hope those in Pittsburgh are tucked in and staying warm this cold weekend (although next week is looking up!). I hope those in or with family in Texas are getting the help they need (both of my family in Texas had no water for days or no electricity for the same- but improving). […]
