Wooden disks, with individual researchers' names hand-printed on them, rest on the points of the star. Colorful overlapping circles surround the star at the perimeter of this square-cropped image.

"Spectrum of Process" presents a range of UMBC faculty approaches to art and culture through rigorous, experimental processes. The exhibition is interdisciplinary, including works of fine art, design, pedagogy, and the visual culture of research.

The 2024 UMBC Faculty exhibition is presented in two parts:

New Faculty and Staff Exhibition

• Eva Grandoni
• Dave Greber
• Eric Millikin
• Julie Sayo
• Kelley Yang

February 8, 6pm: Opening reception!

Join the faculty, staff, and students involved in "Spectrum of Process" for a celebratory reception.

February 14, noon: Research and Process, featuring faculty and students involved in the "Can You Catch a Deep Fake?" and "Artifacts" research projects

Join researchers Lee Boot, Christine Mallinson, and their research teams for intimate discussions about two critical research activities at UMBC, focused on the topics of climate science and Deep Fake audio technologies. Both of these interdisciplinary research activities use visualization strategies to interpret and understand important changes in our environment and culture. The format of the conversation will be a gallery tour followed by Q+A.

February 21, noon: Julie Sayo, Assistant Professor of Graphic Design, presents Babayin Writing Workshop!

Julie Sayo is a Filipino-American graphic designer and educator. Her studio practice explores identity and the role of graphic design in decoloniality through the study and type design of Baybayin, a Tagalog writing system of the Philippines.

Join Julie Sayo in an interactive workshop to learn Baybayin writing and her research.
