Course Description
Building upon the concepts learned in Visual perception and Design, this course presents a new challenge to the student: to use art and design methodologies for the creation of virtual worlds, interactivities and environments. Within this scope this course introduces and expands the concepts, aesthetics, and techniques and the impact of technology and new media critical to the exploration and authoring of interactive art and design works. The conceptual framework of the course includes an understanding of the psychological and cultural/social contexts of interactive media access, media ecologies, content composition, sensing of physical environments, spatial narrativity and venue development.
