<p>Position Information</p> <p>Position Availability:</p> <p>Position available now until June 30th, 2025.</p> <p>Research Project:</p> <p>My current artistic practice explores new fashion languages in the post-Internet era. It has taken multiple forms such as a series of hypertext poetry, and virtual and physical caftans as zero-waste forms of advertisement. In the past century, the rectangle of cloth has also been a form of street advertising. Influenced by the internet, travels, popular culture, online conversation and advertising, I have developed a series of short texts titled Jeu de mots: Absurdist poetry, a creative discourse on post-hyper-consumption. The hypertext poetry represents consumed situations, visual experiences and photographic travel memories [www.jeudemots.club].</p> <p>Position Title: Research Assistant - Graphic + Web Design Requisition Number: 0406073620 Location New York City Position Type: Student Department: PSD/Fashion Design Responsibilities:</p> <p>Diversity Statement: The New School is strongly committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace and particularly seeks applications from members of underrepresented groups, as well as candidates who share this commitment.</p> <p>Student Union ( SENS-UAW): This position is covered by a collective bargaining agreement between SENS-UAW, Local 7902 and the University.</p> <ul> <li>Collaborate on the visual development of the Jeu de mots project, translating creative writing and post-internet aesthetics into compelling graphic compositions. </li><li>Design print and digital assets, including layouts, typographic treatments, and visual narratives that integrate photography, poetry, and conceptual elements. </li><li>Prepare and format design files using Adobe InDesign and other Adobe Creative Suite tools for both print and digital publishing. </li><li>Curate and update content on the project website (www.jeudemots.club), ensuring visual consistency and user-friendly navigation.
