Fall 2009 Syllabus
2D DIGITAL STUDIO COURSES>>>
provide a learning laboratory for digital artmaking + new media processes from brainstorming through digital output.
Students will expand both subject and content of their art-making by experimenting with 2d digital media... investigating mosaic + sequential formats, creative rule-making and rule-breaking, digital sketching, image sampling, and the digital design of multiples for tactile media output. Students will be encouraged to mix media, taking clues from a rich tradition of avant-garde experiments and current trends in digital art. All projects will incorporate digital tools in some stage of their process, though the final format may integrate traditional techniques and materials. Students will produce at least one of their projects in a format suitable for viewing on the web. The class establishes a collaborative learning environment, wherein all participants will take turns sharing their expertise and discoveries in a laboratory of emerging technologies.

The instructor will enforce and students are expected to follow the University's Student Conduct Code. Appropriate classroom conduct promotes an environment of academic achievement and integrity. Disruptive classroom behavior that substantially or repeatedly interrupts either the instructor's ability to teach, or student learning, is prohibited. Disruptive behavior includes inappropriate use of technology in the classroom. Examples include ringing cell phones, text-messaging, watching videos, playing computer games, doing email, or surfing the Internet on your computer instead of note-taking or other instructor-sanctioned activities."
