Molly Morin | Role/Play: Collaborative Creativity and Creative Collaborations | 12 March 2018

Role/Play: Collaborative Creativity and Creative Collaborations at the National Academy of Sciences, Washington DC, brought together 54 graduate students from North America representing a wide range of disciplines to present their work to each other.
Organized by Liese Zahabi and Molly Morin. The student symposium was spearheaded by Liese Zahabi, a graphic/interaction designer and assistant professor of graphic/interaction design at the University of Maryland, and Molly Morin, an artist working at the intersection of digital and analogue practices who is assistant professor of art at Weber State University.
Morin gave a lecture titled Informational Material: poetic data visualisation, CNC fabrication, and embodied systems, in which she elaborated on her approach to art-making, which involves creating material representations of data through generative drawing, digital fabrication and fabric sculptures.
Morin received degrees in sculpture before taking on her role at Weber, where she fosters methods for making art with digital tools.
