Preview

This course is part studio, part conversation about producing and researching conceptual digital projects. In this course, our goal is to tackle and iterate a self-initiated project from concept to resolution in any medium. Although there is one project, there will be benchmarks to help tease out the conceptual, visual, formal, technical iterations of your work.

Learning Outcomes

• You will walk away with a better idea of producing and designing a digital project in the context of your visual and conceptual practice.
• You will also walk away with knowledge of production timelines and insight of producing work outside of school.

Goal-setting

• Treat this class as a space to explore an aspect of digital art-making and creative processes you’re genuinely interested in exploring.
• This class is not centered around demos, it’s centered around design and project development. However, I’m happy to provide demos as the semester progresses based on your project needs.
• This class is designed with multiple communication pathways and mediums, allowing for spontaneity, flexibility, and project-based learning. Please speak to me individually if you would like clarity on your participation and the direction you’re taking.

Attendance

More than two no-shows will result in a failing grade. A no-show means you don't attend class, and fail to either tell me ahead of time, or propose a way to make up for the session. Given notice, I can accommodate remote or hybrid classes. I ask that you communicate with me about your needs.
