Calling all artists working in sculpture and spatial practice! We’re hiring two positions—a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Studio Art position and a sculpture lab tech who often works in our galleries so you get to learn about artworks like this 2023 installation by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer.When Owen Mundy and I took positions at Davidson in 2016 after about 10 years at Florida State University, it was a smart decision. @davidsoncollege gives us both curricular flexibility and professional support to keep up with the times. The students are extraordinary.If you have any questions, please email the search chair Tyler Starr at tystarr@davidson.edu.Links to the calls in my bio. Asst Prof due November 1! I’d try to get the sculpture lab tech in a week earlier by midnight Sunday, October 19, an unofficial deadline, but when they’ll start a review.#academicpositions, #davidsoncollege, #sculpture, #sculptureartist, #spatialpractice, #3dart, #3dprint, #sculpturedepartment, #mfaView all comments

It is now clear to everyone that the federal government wields immense power over both public and private universities.

Past administrations could have used the same leverage to lower tuition and curtail student debt.

By doing nothing, they only fueled the populist backlash against academia.

... and (as a longtime event organizer myself) I can affirm that Jer is the most compelling presenter about data storytelling and visualization I've ever seen.
If you're planning an event this year, whether it be a full-fledged conference, a focused seminar, or a cozy retreat, here's a not-very-subtle reminder: You can hire me to speak!

Hi friends - do you have any examples of artists creating their own image datasets from scratch, specifically in order to train ML / AI models?

For example, in order to produce her "Leaves of Manifold" series, Helena Sarin scanned 1000 leaves from her backyard to train a GAN.

Hot take on teaching Art + generative AI in 2025:
• Drowning in a flood of complex and quickly-changing tools
• Parched in a desert of inspirational artworks and exemplars
(Context: teaching arts undergraduates, using e.g. ComfyUI)
