In this group assignment, we had to make a zine and a poster based on an article. Our topic for the zine was about whether artificial intelligence was a threat to humanity. I was in charge of making the poster and spot illustrations while my partner, Leena Lam, made the layouts. The spot illustration of a brain for the zine has one half that shows humanity while the other represents AI. This also represents the idea that humans will eventually meld together with technology.
This poster was so much fun to make since I tend to favor making detailed illustrations. It shows a circuit board, with AI being the computer chip that controls it. Scattered about are people who are being used and drained by the AI, and you can even see one person trying to turn off the board. This illustration is on the back of the zine which would make a poster once you unfold it.
