In our second spotlight, we are proud to introduce Dr. Mikołaj Birek, Vice-Dean of Graphic Design at UITM. 

A digital artist, researcher, and academic bridging the gap between traditional fine arts and technology, Dr. Birek explores how generative AI impacts visual culture and societal representation. From award-winning 2D animations to serving on the Scientific Council of the Polish Animation Research Group, his work explores the boundaries of creative expression. 

His recent academic work – such as examining bias reproduction, visual homogenization, and social representations (like disability and migration) in AI-generated imagery directly informs how we study the societal impacts of these technologies. 

Stay tuned as we continue introducing the brilliant minds behind Spark-AI!
