Course Description
|
An open studio course where each student creates an experimental project based on connecting an optical sensing device (lens/sensor/camera) to a computer and output the data in some recognizable form (screen, speakers, mechanical devices, etc.) in essence, the camera obscura of the present. | |

Grading | Online research and Literature Review 20% Class participation 30% Completion of projects and online report 50% The course is designed to be self-directed (DIY). Following the warm-up simple and depth projects, each student will prepare a project concept which they will realize in the course. Completion of the course includes 1) project conceptualization, 2) project realization, 3) project documentation for the course website - with All students will be expected to perform at the level of their expertise. |
