Description
What are we, in 2022? Natives of the digital forest, shamans of the virtual nomads, humans under the context of "New Nature". This elective class encourages students to develop two experimental projects in contemporary mediums. Workshops, reading & discussion, and group critiques are curated to learn skills of speculative thinking, narrative configuration, and visual design technologies such as web-based interaction, reality augmentation, sensors for physical interaction, etc. Technology workshops may vary based on project needs. A few artists’ work we’ll be looking into: Céleste Boursier-Mougenot, Revital Cohen & Tuur Van Balen, Gil Kuno, Shawn Decker, Ye Linghan, Guo Cheng, etc. All skill levels are welcomed.
