Now, a University of Texas at Dallas computer science professor is developing algorithms to generate unique images that mimic the cubist pioneer’s paintings in seconds. Zhang, a professor of computer science and director of the Visual Computing Lab in the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science, uses computer science to study fine art — and he uses fine art to find ways to make better computer visuals. Fulbright Distinguished Chairs Program The Fulbright Distinguished Chairs Program comprises approximately 40 distinguished lecturing, distinguished research and distinguished lecturing/research awards ranging from three to 12 months. Awards in the Fulbright Distinguished Chairs Program are viewed as among the most prestigious appointments in the Fulbright Scholar Program. “Computer science will not replace artists and designers,” Zhang said.
