Intro to Digital Forms
Goals: Introduce students to contemporary software used in creating digital art. Discuss and demonstrate common techniques used in computer generated art such as repetition, computer algorithms, and generative designs. Make students aware of common themes in digital art such as appropriation, mimicry, remix, and recontextualization. Introduce and demonstrate methods of observer interaction and accessibility such as multicast communication and interactive design. Due to the wide range of students’ incoming skills, all projects are upgraded or downgraded in technical and artistic complexity to match the student.
