Is fashion art? Damien Hirst, one of the most influential artists of the past half-century, says it can be—and he’s putting his money where his mouth is, launching a limited-edition collab with 123-year-old Scottish cashmere luxury label Barrie vanityfair.visitlink.me/6iJxMX

Is Fashion Art? Damien Hirst Settles the Score
Artist Damien Hirst has designed a line of cashmere clothing with Barrie, declaring “Anything done well is art.” In an exclusive interview, the United Kingdom's richest living artist talks about the times he almost worked with Hussein Chalayan, Lee Alexander McQueen, and Virgil Abloh, and why those partnerships never came to be.

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

This is obviously disgusting in so many ways. Gonna highlight one: Servicemember beard exemptions are all on religious or medical grounds. They're either Sikhs (mostly South Asian) or have a skin condition related to shaving curly hair (mostly African American). "No beardos" is racist as hell.

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

I accept that there are legitimate use cases for AI but a lot of use is unnecessary & our systems force people into use by making it hard to avoid even though both use & the infrastructure it relies on is harmful to both people & the environment. Sorry, did I say AI? I meant cars. (AI sucks too.)

Lets take a basic, very instrumental approach: consider pre-medicine students, for them the histories of scientific racism, eugenics etc is invaluable. For CS and engineering students, critical histories of science and technology are crucial to being better at what they are training to do.
