Sounds from the Studio: Season 4, Ep. 1 – Alicia DeVrio

Posted on July 22, 2026 by Kathryn Shriver

In this thought-provoking episode of Sounds From the Studio, Season 4 host Dr. Gretchen Generett engages in a captivating conversation with Alicia DeVrio, a PhD candidate at Carnegie Mellon University’s Human-Computer Interaction Institute and a passionate weaver. Together, they explore the intertwining themes of art, technology, and community, delving into how Contemporary Craft fosters connections among individuals.

Alicia shares her journey into the world of weaving, highlighting the parallels between her research on AI systems and the structural creativity found in fiber arts.
