1/5 "Sometimes words are not enough," said Yael Vinker, @yaelvinker.bsky.social, of @csail.mit.edu at TTIC's Young Researcher Seminar Series in Nov '25. "I want to teach machines to speak the language of sketches." This involves using visual means to communicate concepts under a set of constraints.

We're featuring an incredible interdisciplinary lineup, encompassing psychology, HCI, computer graphics, and comics theory💫 (I'm personally very excited about having them all in the same room! Their work has been fundamental in shaping my own research :)

From cave paintings to subway maps to emojis, humans have always found ways to distill the visual world into lines, shapes, and symbols. ✏️ Why do we abstract? What makes some simplifications work better than others? And how might abstraction shape human-AI collaboration?

We'll discuss drawing from multiple angles: 🧠 Cognitive: how drawing supports thinking 👁️ Perception: how we see & simplify visually ✏️ Sketching as input: guiding generative AI 🤖 Co-creation: drawing with machines We hope to spark interdisciplinary dialogue & collaboration!
