Congratulations! Lucky students!

It's cold & gray, but spring is springing

Data centers are a physical manifestation of AI infrastructure and they've become a flashpoint precisely because they're tractable. They exist in specific places, consume specific resources, can be seen and pointed to. I spoke with @lorenaoneil.com @rollingstone.com about our urgent AI reckoning.

A head shot of Paola and her in the studio designing and carving stone. The text of the screenshot says "Paola Dartigues (CFA’26), MFA in sculpture Tell me a bit about your MFA thesis project and what you’re trying to convey. I’ve been thinking about how I relate to time and how I relate to this city. It’s a process that started when I arrived here. I’m working with two very different materials, paper and stone, and trying to understand them through time. Paper feels fragile and temporary, while stone holds a much longer sense of time. So I’m comparing these materials as two different ways of experiencing time. What was the source of your inspiration? A big part of my inspiration comes from geology. I’m taking a class on philosophy in art and science, and it made me think about how time is read in geology—it’s very different from how we usually think about time. Instead of something linear and fixed, it becomes something relative and material. I’m interested in how we read time through materials, and how some traces stay while others disappear. What remains, and how do we learn to read it?"

So proud of one the graduate students in my Philosophy of the Earth Sciences class, Paola Dartigues, drawing on our discussions of geologic time and traces to inspire her MFA thesis artwork! 🥰
