Making the Cover

The cover for the Spring 2024 issue of Trinity magazine was illustrated by James Lee '26, an incredibly talented Trinity student whose interests are in computer science, communication, and new media, which his art reflects. Lee blends images generated by artificial intelligence (AI) with his own digital illustrations to create unique and inspired art that cross the divide between technology and humanity.

While the cover is decidedly Trinity University, from the nacho cart and Trinicats to Leeroy's birthday dunk in Miller Fountain, we didn't originally start there. The Trinity magazine team used DALL·E, an artificial intelligence art generator, to brainstorm ideas for the cover of the magazine. Which one is your favorite?
