Introduction to Digital Practices: Body and Technology
0.25 Credit(s)
Studio
In the contemporary world, digital practices influence every aspect of our lives. As artists, we not only respond to the digital, we are involved in creating the very structures by which the digital is presented. This course develops digital skills and awareness of contemporary art while exploring questions of digital identity including avatars and artists’ practices intermingling the body and mind with technology. Students’ own world views will come to bear on digital practices in two, three, and four dimensional projects. As this is an introduction to digital practices, students with less familiarity with digital tools are strongly encouraged to register.
Anti-requisite: GART 1B03 Introduction to Digital Practices: Globalization
Conditions: Students must have completed or be working concurrently on a minimum of 1.0 credit of 100 level core studio curriculum.
