Resurrecting Creativity: Digitally Continuing Art from Posthumous Artists

In this course, we will explore the techniques and technologies used to continue the artistic legacy of posthumous artists. Through a combination of lectures, discussions, and hands-on projects, we will delve into the ethical and creative considerations involved in extending the work of artists who have passed away.

We will begin by examining the history of posthumous art and the various methods used to digitally reproduce and enhance existing works. We will also look at the work of contemporary artists who have used technology to expand on the creations of artists who are no longer with us.

Throughout the course, students will have the opportunity to experiment with a range of digital tools and techniques, such as photogrammetry, 3D scanning, and machine learning. These skills will be applied to the creation of new works that build on the themes and styles of posthumous artists.

By the end of the course, students will have a deeper understanding of the ethical and creative implications of digitally continuing the work of posthumous artists. They will also have developed the skills needed to create their own works that extend the legacy of some of the world's greatest artists.
