Huge congrats to Prof. Harrell and his co-authors!
Congratulations to @FoxHarrell and co-authors on being named finalists for this year's Nebula Award in Game Writing for their D&D book Journeys Through the Radiant Citadel! ⚔️ 🐲 🌌 Read Prof. Harrell's interview with @Wizards_DnD. bit.ly/3ZPowa1
Special event, Nov. 30! @LupeFiasco presents “Rap Theory & Practice: an Introduction” (in-person @MIT and streamed) cmswm.it/3EFM4pB. It'll be "an exploration into the underlying fundamental functions, structures, and principles of rap." @MIT_SHASS @LITatMIT @ArtsatMIT
"You can transform and reinvent yourself by the things that you learn, and ultimately that can help you become the best version of yourself or help you empower others with the knowledge that you’ve gained.”
We’re excited that Lupe Fiasco will be working with MIT Prof. Nick Montfort and #MITVirtuality director Prof. @FoxHarrell to blend the worlds of rap and computing.
. @big_data_kane on fellow MLK scholar Lupe Fiasco's latest challenge – teaching at MIT. "Many academics use hip-hop to inform their field. I imagined something where hip-hop itself establishes dialogues and research questions," Read: tinyurl.com/5etbd7wa
For #GlobalMILWeek2022, check out MIT Virtuality’s free course Fostering Media Literacy in the Age of Deepfakes, providing educators and independent learners resources and critical skills to understand the threat of misinformation. bit.ly/3rWqjeA
We’re excited that “In Event of Moon Disaster” is one of the featured exhibits at the newly-reopened @MITMuseum! See how this deepfake video of President Nixon addresses big questions about the potential risks of artificial intelligence. bit.ly/3RqmuIh
Sheri Sher from the Mercedes Ladies, the first all women MC & DJ crew, visited the [R]Evolution of Hip Hop “Golden Era” 1986-1990. Thank you for sharing your story. At the UHHM, we will continue to tell Hip Hop’s wonderful history & empower all women to ensure we tell HERSTORY‼️
Ayyy the Hip Hop hitmaker Positive K of "I Got a Man" came through the [R]Evolution of Hip Hop and shared a message of unity to the Hip Hop community.
Throwback Thursday to when rapper Pardison Fontaine and Hot 97’s DJ Drewski visited the [R]Evolution of Hip Hop “Golden Era” 1986-1990 to celebrate “Music Executive” at Hot 97 TT Torrez’s birthday party 🥳. Thanks for coming, the UHHM family hopes you had an amazing time ❤️.
“The MIT Center for Advanced Virtuality, you could look at it as a way to investigate how we can blend the imagination with the physical world.” Learn more. youtu.be/MpT7k6rCmO8
MIT Virtuality director @FoxHarrell will be collaborating with @mit_cmsw’s Nick Montfort and @LupeFiasco this year. Stay tuned!
From space traffic to virus evolution, community journalism to hip-hop, this year’s cohort in the Martin Luther King Jr. (MLK) Visiting Professors and Scholars Program will power an unprecedented range of intellectual pursuits during their at MIT. mitsha.re/2Vyu50KLMcG
While you're waiting for @uhhmuseum to open, watch @RBucano & @MITVirtuality's @FoxHarrell discuss The [R]evolution of Hip Hop Breakbeat Narratives, an interactive exhibit that takes you through the history of hip hop, on #OLTalks: youtu.be/VEc8kJLz_aw bit.ly/3TKjb0R
MIT welcomes eight MLK Visiting Professors and Scholars for 2022-23: Martin Luther King Jr. Visiting Professors and Scholars will enhance and enrich the MIT community through engagement with students and faculty. mitsha.re/kWLT50KFnXR
Misinformation is a term for inaccurate info that can take us further from what’s going on in the world. Teachers, guide your classroom discussion about the dangers of misinformation and deepfakes with the @MITVirtuality video “In Event of Moon Disaster.” moondisaster.org
Learn how misinformation about current events in 2020 to 2021 became widespread, in this video from NOVA’s digital series, Misinformation Nation. bit.ly/3HLOgf6
Harrell also serves as the Director of @MITVirtuality. His research explores the relationship between imagination and computation and involves inventing new forms of VR, computational narrative, videogaming for social impact, and related digital media forms.
“I’m interested in the ways virtual identities can be used to encourage social change. Artful uses of tech to imagine ourselves are powerful tools for social intervention.” — Meet D. Fox Harrell, MIT Prof of Digital Media & AI: bit.ly/ArtfulTech @MIT_CMSW + @MITCSAIL
The increasingly blended physical and virtual world is rife with inaccurate information. @FoxHarrell and contributor @pakinamamer share how the public can make sense of manipulated media. bit.ly/3u5D0EJ CC: @MITVirtuality @MIT_CSAIL @mit_cmsw
An exciting list of must read books from Open Learning folks including our very own D. Fox Harrell!
Do your weekend plans include Dungeons & Dragons, engineering, or lesson planning? 🐉 🖥️ 📓 Then you don't want to miss these books from OL's @cynthiabreazeal, Fox Harrell (@MITVirtuality), @kessler_aaron, Tobias Macey & Bianca Rose! bit.ly/3yR865C
As our physical and virtual worlds become increasingly blended, how can we make sense of manipulated media? @MITVirtuality's Fox Harrell says digital forensics, legislation, and verification can help—but public literacy and critical thinking are crucial. bit.ly/3u5D0EJ
