In AI World Travelers, students will harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to embark on a virtual globetrotting adventure, exploring diverse communities and cultures worldwide. We will be exploring the world through patterns and garments, and learning about the different values and meanings visually encoded in them. With the growth of fast fashion, garments are no longer encoded with the value systems of our cultures. Throughout this studio, students will self-reflect and define their own life values to create patterned garments using AI to visualize their designed patterns. Finally, they will use hand printing techniques for fabric to transfer these patterns onto garments, capturing the essence of their values, culture, and diversity onto their own creations.
