“Disability Aesthetics, Digital Art & Generative AI” Presentation by Dr. Talan Memmott

February 26 @ 6:00 pm 7:00 pm

On Feb. 26, join us for Dr. Talan Memmott’s presentation, “Cripistemology and Creative Practice: Disability Aesthetics, Digital Art, and Generative AI.”

Dr. Memmott’s presentation will showcase “Introducing Lary”—an ongoing AI project that explores the re-invention of the self following life-changing cancer surgery and treatment.

This talk also profiles Dr. Memmott’s experience with a laryngeal cancer diagnosis and the medical interventions that follow.

Using a variety of AI platforms for video and image production as well as journal entries and medical reports as text prompts, the resulting work is a set of distinctive media that range, in Dr. Memmott’s words, “from the mythic to the horrific; the historical to the speculative.”

This presentation is through the Consortium for Liberal Arts & Sciences Promotion (CLASP) series.

All are welcome to attend in person, and there is a Zoom room available (no password required).
