In this Photoshop tutorial, I’m going to show you an easy, step-by-step process for creating a stunning photo collage in Photoshop.
Photo collages are unique art forms that can be used to show off a theme or concept! This kind of style was largely used on posters, record covers, etc…
As far as I know, by now in 2023, most of the techy dudes are familiar with the variety of collage apps on their smartphones.
But what if you want to make a collage in Photoshop? Don’t worry! I will make it easier than you think.
Let’s dive into the process. I hope you enjoy it.
How to Turn a Picture Into a Line Drawing in PhotoshopZenith Clipping
To transform a photograph into a line drawing in Photoshop, you don’t need it to appear as though you did it in Photoshop, you’ll need to focus on detail and set up your picture appropriately before you apply any channels.
In photography, Blur refers to an image (or sections of an image) that are not sharp. This is frequently brought about by camera shake, and it’s a mix-up that you ordinarily need to stay away from.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

27. Layers are like sheets of paper or transparency that lay on each other. How to use layers Opacity Make a layer more see-through. Visibility toggle Make a layer disappear while you work on others. Layer menu Listing of layers Move them around by holding down on one and dragging up or down. Make a new layer Also will duplicate a layer if you drag that layer to here. Delete layer Drag layer to here to delete.

Add a shadow Select object Hint: if the background is one color, use magic wand selection and select background then SE LECT>Inverse Copy selection #1 #2 #4 Paste into new document #3 Open new document Make sure it’s bigger than selection. #5 Bring up the layers palette. Create a duplicate layer.
31. #6 FILTER > Blur > Gaussian blur Set to radius of 8. #7 Move the blur layer to behind Set opacity to 50%.
34. Retouch a photo Use the rubber stamp tool. #3 #2 #1 Put tool over area you’d like to copy. Hold down the Alt key (IBM) or the Option key (Mac) and suck up the image. Place tool where you want to apply it and brush it on. Hint: make the view size big to do detail work.
38. Select part of the picture IMAGE > ADJUST > brightness/ contrast Gilclear effect #1 #2 The plant used to charge for this effect. At school, we focus on what is important in life: lunchtime fun. Several senior boys had a running game of Frisbee football and even ran tournaments during the 30-minute lunch. “ I ate a granola bar during third period so I wouldn’t have to stop to eat lunch,” Senior Joey Summers said.

39. Using the text tool, create a letter that is big enough and move it over the picture to be over the most interesting parts. Duplicate background layer and delete the original. Put the photo layer on top and make sure it is selected (darkened). LAYER > Group with previous. Cool stuff with fonts #1 #4 #3 #2 Put photos inside letters
