Chi Jang Yin (Шаблон:Lang; born in Guangzhou, China, 1973) is an American filmmaker, photographer, curator and educator. She is best known for her experimental films that explore displacement, alienation, the absence of representation, and narrative memory.[1] When she was five, Yin's family left China in the latter part of The Cultural Revolution. Her mother, an artist from an aristocratic family, first led the family to Taiwan, and then to Canada.[2] Yin received her undergraduate and graduate degrees at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where she studied with Yvonne Rainer and Shellie Fleming. She was the Head of Media Art at the Department of Art, Media, and Design at DePaul University.[3] Currently, Yin is an associate professor at The School of Cinematic Arts at the Jarvis College of Computing and Digital Media.[4] Her research methodology focuses on intersectionality, information literacy, and how digitalization of the arts and humanities can be a form of advocacy.[2] In 2020, she was named the 2020-2021 Presidential Faculty Fellow at DePaul University.[2] Yin is a trained facilitator at The National SEED Project on Inclusive Curriculum, founded by Peggy McIntosh[5] and has received certifications in conflict resolution from the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School and in negotiation at the Professional Development Programs from the School of Professional Studies at Northwestern University.[5]
