Spring 2026 Seminar Series: Exploring "AI Avatars: Visual Design and Human Perception"

We cordially invite all students and professors to the fourth session of our Graduate Research Seminar Series (Spring 2026).

This week’s seminar examines the intersection of digital art and psychology with the topic: “AI Avatars: Visual Design and Human Perception.” The session will be presented by Dr. Pisut Wisessing, Assistant Professor at CMKL University.

What should an AI avatar look like, and does it matter? We will explore how lighting, color, and visual design choices influence trust, appeal, and emotional perception of digital humans. This seminar is especially relevant for those interested in digital identity and human-computer interaction, with a focus on designing avatars that resonate with people more effectively.
