学部3年のときにつくったアートブックを上げてみます。表紙は紙ヤスリ。本文用紙は新聞紙。銀のスプレーを吹いてからレーザー彫刻で表面を飛ばすことで、文字を通して地の新聞紙の模様が透けて見えます。背はアクリル板を挟んだボルト綴じ。カバーはブルーシートで、デジタル刺繍ミシンで銀糸を刺繍

the idea of "outsider art" would break a lot of you people's minds
I hate to break this to everyone, but you probably don't have better taste than the AI.
If you ask any leading model about a product decision with guidance: "don't tell me to ask users; just reason through it yourself." It will give you a better answer than 90% of PMs.
A lot of people are afraid to do this because they suspect that the answers will actually be very good. There are plenty of other distinctly human things that we can contribute, but "having better taste" isn't one of them.

The exhibit brings together work by Black contemporary artists who explore expanded modes of printmaking to question the complex interplay between race, technology, and representation in our increasingly data-driven world.
Today’s lecture is from New Red Order, a public secret society of artists and collaborators who use humor, media, and performance to confront colonialism and interrogate cultural appropriation.
Join us with Sarah Sockbeson as she offers a powerful look into the design, materials, and meaning behind Wabanaki ash & sweetgrass basketry.
Type Fans! You won't want to miss this.
